I have an AMD Radeon HD 7850 XFX Double Dissipation Black Edition and it idles at 40c and gets to 65-70c while playing runescape. Are those reasonable temps? When I stress test this card using Furmark it will jump to 65c within one minute of starting the test. My fan speed is constantly set to 100%. It has yet to go past 70c. Besides temps Runescape frequently crashes with Java stopped working errors or AMD Drivers crashed and recovered errors. Same thing happens while playing Minecraft. I have reinstalled and checked to have the latest versions of both Java and AMD catalyst 32 and 64 bit. While playing non Java games like Bioshock Infinite I receive AMD drivers stopped working or DirectX stopped working errors. I have also noticed some issues but it has been a while when I see artifacts in my web browser or depending what website the flash video will lag a frame every few seconds. Only serious issues is what I already mentioned that I receive errors or crashes under load. There has been cases where my pc completely freezes and restarts with windows recovered from a BSoD notification.
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
No OC besides the factory OC on this card which is a 115 mhz boost to the clock and 50 mhz boost to the memory. I have noticed I receive less errors when I downclock to the reference clock.
Are these signs of a faulty card? I ordered a new GTX 660 to replace this card but if there is a way to properly diagnose and see if this card is bad before I use the new one it would be great.
