Message: [QUOTE="TenEightyOne, post: 12334711, member: 146813"] If your card is indeed running at 99C (and those sensors aren't always accurate) then your primary problem is [URL='http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/366337-33-recommended-maximum-operating-temperature']temperature[/URL]. If you're getting kernel power issues (and, again, those readings aren't always bulletproof) then you should tot up your power usage and check that your PSU is (a) up to the job and (b) not on the fritz. However, a kernel power report may mean nothing more than an unexpected shutdown caused by issues other than direct power to the CPU. The options could be any/all/some of the following (to start with): * Fan power is decreasing due to power choking * Overtemps may be causing PSU shutdowns (a cyclical diagnosis best checked by blowing an externally-powered desk fan into the case) * PSU is faulty [/QUOTE]
