OK so my system has been working beautifully since I got it over a year ago. Yesterday after playing starcraft 2 for about 25 minutes my display went black and said "No Input Detected" and my monitors proceeded to go to sleep. I went to restart my computer but all that it would do is turn on, not start up, and the fans would just spin super hard. The computer would not start up unless the computer was left off for about 30 minutes.
Once I got it back on I went into the Bios and monitored the base hardware temperatures. The ICH started at 70C and continued to raise until 99C, at which point my display died again. This makes me think its my graphics card. Im running an Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT. I let it cool for 30 minutes and then tried to log onto world of warcraft. Almost immediately my display died.
My dad told me to start by testing each stick of Ram individually and go from there. My friends and I think its the graphics card thats overheating. Any thoughts?
