Just got a new video card GeForce 8500GT (512mb) and im getting some funky colors and visuals when playing certain games that require high requirements. It also crashes and freezes so i have to exit the games. quite a few people say it might be overheating of the card? theres the temperature above, i dont know if its good or not. what else could be causing this?|||The temperature seems fine. Did you try getting the newest drivers from nvidia.com?



wow...don't listen to net_tech and ebilan for your own sanity. If 47 is too high, then nvidia wouldn't have set the throttle point above 100 deg. C.



Mine runs at 55 deg. C idle and it's been that way for about 4 years now so I know it's not a problem. It goes to around 70+ when I play games and this is normal. It's surprising how people try to answer these things when they really have no clue...|||The GPU is your graphics processor.

I'm guessing you took this temp reading with the system idle (not under load / not doing much).

47 degrees is a bit warm and it might be worth investing in an aftermarket cooler for your graphics card or working on some better ventilation in your case.|||Your GPU temp is too high. thats about 120 degrees Farenheidt. I would see about adding a couple more fans or maybe see about water cooling. But that is what is attributing to your funky color and locking up issue.|||Brother Look At This site This has A clear Solution I have Oftenly Visit This Site and Get Solution And Your Answer is Posted at http://www.solvater.blogspot.com
