I have a PNY 6800GT wich I bought just before Doom 3 was released, Ive never had a problem up until recently , I was playing the FEAR demo and started seeing artifacts.. knowing this is usualy heat related I exited the game and to my suprise the GPU temp reading was 91C ,Ive noticed the fan sounds unusualy loud when first booting my PC, but it calms down once the desktop loads .. Fan going bad perhaps? My case is a fairly large Antec 1080 Soho with 6 fans: 2 front intakes,1 side intake,2 rear exhaust and 1 pci slot cooler (exhaust) under the 6800GT, Is there a better fan setup I could buy for it? and is it wise to keep the metal sheet on that covers the heatsinks etc. ive heard some people remove this. Thanks in advance.
This is IDLE temp since turning my pc on this morning , havent played any games today:
