    Its odd because both repair shops i brought it to the past 2 weeks said they ran stress tests and they came back fine. I just dont understand what the problem is. I defaulted the BIOS and rolled back the display driver. Now I wait for another blue screen I guess....

    Bad, for sure. It is a very high temperature for a GPU. It may be expected that the GPU will crash the computer.

    Let us know when it occurs. Probably in next morning :)

    Would this be a sign of a failing graphic card or would these temps always have been this way. Cause as I said earlier, I never had a problem with this computer since I bought it 2 years ago....

    A two years old computer/hardware is not supposed to perform as it used to two years earlier. Isn't it?

    It is an indication of a failing graphics card. I also abandoned my older graphics card at one word of my partner .... due to that level of heat and some other minor (apparently) problems.

    Any PCIe graphics card will work in your system, as all them are plug and play. Brand, model etc depends on your choice and budget :)

    It also depends on your PSU. Graphics cards put probably more strain on a PSU than and other single component. That is when you need a quality PSU with plenty of amps for what you need. You don't have what size or make PSU you have now. I always recommend Corsair, Seasonic or Antec PSU's as they are top quality and will not usually take the rest of your system with it if it goes out, and they will put out what they claim to put out unlike the cheaper models. A PSU is the last place you want to save some money in building a computer. Every other component in your system depends on it and is connected to it.

    I have this power supply...

    Antec NEO ECO 520C 520W Continuous Power ATX12V v2.3 / EPS12V 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply

    I am really not good with this stuff, what graphic card would you recommend in the below $150 range that will work well with this psu?

    I am having bad problems again this morning. So after my usual first boot of the day I get a BSOD. Retart the computer and my mouse and keyboard do not work. Restart again and I get no monitor showing just a no input running across the screen. Restart again and this time I get to the desktop. Go to my email and the computer freezes and I blue screen. Restart again and now I have the black screen with the white cursor on the upper left corner of the screen. Shit computer down for 10 minutes it then I get to where I have to choose safe mode or whatever but I can't choose anything because my mouse is frozen. Restart again and it brings me to the repair option or start windows regularly. I choose to start regularly. I am at my desktop now and afraid to attempt anything. Please help, there has to be a way for us to figure out what is causing this!!
