My pc is better.

My pc is overheating and I've found the fault lies in my graphics card. So I will have to spend a considerable amount

(because I'm a closet geeky gamer).
Sympathy and/or donations required please

cooling fan(s) okay? those things have a bad habit of crapping out too soon....especially if one lets dust collect on/in it....

What, you don't have a dedicated computer room with air conditioning that keeps the room at a constant 62 degrees????

First thing I did was fit an extra fan, sigh.

Thanks H' that's what I was looking for and I do feel better now.

I'm pretty sussed pc wise (I repair pc's of an evening for extra moolah) and am certain it is the graphics card.
I'm playing the new Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Cyg' and have to buy something from the new Radeon X range, probably about ?200!!!
