You still have a stock fan on your Graphics Card? I'd suggest upgrading it to a Zalman fan, or any other fan with a decent heatsink.

That happens to me a lot when it's warm out. Just open up the case and put a fan directly into it...works every time :)

It's still stable to use if heating is the only problem, that's fixable with a installing a zalman on the card.

The graphics card is displaying artifacts because it is overheating, likewise the graphics card may still work, let it cool, blow a fan into your PC and if it stops giving you artifacts once it's cool, you don't need to buy a new gfx card like peex says.

My room tends to heat up because my reef tank lights put off alot of heat, so I use a air conditioner to counter-balance my room temperature.

60%-80%? It will sound like you have a V12 inside your case.

I've got mine set to 100 percent and it sounds normal, depends on your graphics card's fan set.

why am i not surprised to see this in a srf thread :P

Edit: and before im accused, AFTER you have used a skill, the yellow box your looking for fades, or in my case of my gfx, i think it shone yellow for a couple seconds. Go to hell Backfire, botting accusations drive people away from here.
