Hello,
As I write this my GTX 260 is idling at a temperature of 85 C. Within the last few weeks, this card has suddenly developed crashing issues during games: the video freezes but the sound still works, albeit jerky, or the entire game crashes but I can still three finger salute out of it. I just put new silvered thermal paste on it last week and the problem has gotten worse with newer drivers. My power supply is a 585-watt model with a total of 38 amps across the 12v rails. Any suggestions?
