First off my specs are:
Case: Dell Studio XPS 7100
CPU: AMD Phenom II x4 945t
RAM: 12GB DDR3
PSU: AcBel PC9004 460w
Motherboard: Dell 0NWWY0
Chipset: AMD 785G
I just picked up my new XFX Radeon 6770 and installed it as soon as I got home. As soon as I turned it on i noticed the resolution was much worse and there was a large border around the screen (I checked the resolution and it said it was on 1920x1080). After installing all the drivers I started a game and within 5 minutes my computer completely shuts off. It does this same thing everytime I play ANY game. I researched the problem and found that high temp is a common cause. I downloaded CoreTemp and it said I was at 46-48C while browsing with my Tj. max on 71C. I started the game in a window so I could see the CoreTemp window and the temp WENT NUTS and went up to 102C before my comp shut off.
Any help?
