Just some info my HD 5770 got to 82c on stress test and that is as far it will go
certain drivers will make the card run varies ways for a while
that i would say is within spec for those cards ,mind you mine has never artifact at that level but im sure most of them get that toasty and newer GPU'S can take a better bashing then earlier technology
Maybe change drivers back to 11.3 or something just seems your system can't funtion with the latest 11.4 never rule out incompadability ------just saying
I have been reading several posts on the AMD forum website about the same issue you are having. Unfortunately, not to many are getting the problem solved. A few people had the problem go away when they updated their motherboard chipset driver to the latest version. GIGABYTE - Motherboard - Socket 775 - GA-P35-DS4 (rev. 2.1)
I will try and keep looking for a solution.
thanks for your help guys, it doesnt seem like im gonna be able to fix it so im thinking of giving the card to my parents and getting a new one, i have been looking at the 6950 can anyone suggest any other ati cards that are good
thanks
you can try the 6800 series or the 6900 series ATI cards should be better for you
since you mentioned giving your card to your parents i gave my hd 5770 and 600 watt psu to my dad yesterday for his unit
most of the ATI cards i have had performed good maybe you just got a goose egg
My 6950 get to the same temperature. I thought it was over heating too, but it turns out you don't need to worry so much with GPU's.
Those 6990's get to 80°C+
