Still Pervasive Bsod....

I really don't understand why those card are getting so hot, I have 2 120mm fans circulating air between the front and back of the case with a 80mm fan right in front of the 2 graphics cards and another 80mm fan circulating air from my hard drive. I also has a cooler master v8 for my cpu. This is one of the most ventilated cases i know of and i regularly clean out dust every month or so. There really is no reason for these cards to be getting this hot......

also after that full hour of testing at 108 degrees Celsius, my pc never failed....

There are lots of reasons that a PC can overheat above and beyond ventilation. For one if the PSU and partially failed and was outputting 12 VDC instead of 5, qnd 3.

If this is a new problem (and your system had worked before) you should probably check the output voltages (and current (amps)) to be sure.

Edit: Here's are some dump files that occurred from some bsod's when i switched back to main hard drive. Hopefully they will have different data or they can be used for reference.

Another bsod.... Definitely hardware failure... Happen while watching a saved video (graphics maybe?).

Here's the dump file for diagnosis. I really appreciate all the help you guys have given me and i would really love to solve this problem! (btw i ended up with two minidumps... maybe i forgot about or ignored a bsod, i forget...)

I am going to go to a friends house Tuesday to swap graphics cards and psu temporarily to see if there is a difference. If it is hardware and it ends up be neither of those i would assume the problem would be either ram or cpu... I may bring my whole rig to micro center to see if they will exchange a cpu for a new one. (i have been to micro center before on behalf of computer troubleshooting, and they have some nice stress tests they can run my parts through to check for error, so it wouldn't be a complete waste to go there even if i wouldn't be able to exchange...)

I think it is good idea that you are going to get another graphic card and psu. Personally, I suspect the graphic card right at the begining, however, the crash dump never blamed directly to the card...
In the crash dump you just post, one with stop code 124, which is hardware related as I mentioned in earlier post, the other one is stop code 3B with exception code c000005 which can be related to memory.

Code:
BugCheck 124, {0, fffffa8006777028, be000000, 800400}

Probably caused by : hardware

BugCheck 3B, {c0000005, fffff96000182e19, fffff88003811eb0, 0}

Probably caused by : win32k.sys ( win32k!DCESpeedHitTest+55 )
