I bought my rig over 5 years ago, and I had no trouble until now.
I am a PC user who keeps updated all drivers (including graphic driver) and windows often. While I was playing 'Medal of Honor 2010', my monitor froze and went black screen saying "Signal not Found, Switching to sleep Mode". After that, my CPU was still running, and my EVGA GTX 460 1GB's fan was still spinning.
Once I pressed reset-button, my screen went black screen again after BIOS booted and loaded Windows 10. I entered Safe Mode, and it works fine. Even I plugged my GT 8600, it works fine as well. I cleaned my GPU by using air-dust compressor and applying thermal paste. I plugged it back to my computer, and it works until 10 minutes later. My monitor went black screen again.
I have other computer at my workplace, so I plugged my GTX460 to it. GTX 460 temperature at Idle is around 50 degree celsius. Then, once I launched Overwatch, I just found out that once GTX 460 reaches 65 celsius, computer automatically shuts off.
I don't know why this is happening. I had no problem for using it even I played 'The Division' BETA with 720p lowest setting, smooth framerate and no lag.
Does anyone experience this before? Is there a way to fix this issue? Even I ordered GTX 970, I would love to use GTX 460 again.
