I have been running two HIS 4890 with EK full cover blocks for about a year. Recently had an overheat due to an air bubble apparently. Computer shut itself down. Checked it out found card really hot. Bled out the air, topped off coolant and restarted. Since then the top card - the one that overheated runs about 17 to 18 degrees C hotter than the lower card - lower card is where the monitor is connected. I have removed the block, disassembled, cleaned and inspected - no apparent problems found. Installed new thermal pads on the regs etc., and new thermal paste on the GPU. Card ran cooler for about a week and now its running hot again. Presently lower card at 38c upper at 57.5c. Am I missing something?
Thanks for any help offered.
