Very strange. Install GPU-z and check your card temperatures, voltages and clocks to see if anything looks wrong.

nothing wrong....
temp is 37 degree with 21% fan speed without any activity at vddc 0.825
and with crysis running on max setting it shows 99 % gpu activity with temp 57 with 45 % fan speed at vddc 1.075..
is it acceptable????
is ther problem in gpu?? or any prob with my mobo..?
its gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H with bios ver F8...

All looks fine.

Does the problem occur if you use sleep or hibernate instead of shutting down?

By the way, I did some more digging and found similar problems to yours:

It does seem to point towards a faulty GPU. You should probably return it while it is still under warranty.

haven't tried yet but it only happens when i boot pc after being shutdown for more then 1 to 2 hour....then i boot it..it shows lines and immediately i restart pc..then it works fine..

So it's a cold start problem then. Most search results I found indicate a faulty card under such circumstances.

I totaly agree with Herr_Koos if you bought it just 2 days ago it should be easy to return it back and get a new one ,, even if you aren't very sure about the issue
