Hi,


I own a Palit GTX 560 Ti Sonic and it's about a bit more than half a year old now.
Strangely for some reason after I play some games on my computer for quite a long time (2-3 hours) the brightness goes up by its own. Is it going to die?

Not really every game....at first it only happens after I play Battlefield 3, but now it seems that it happens after I play games like Need For Speed Hot Pursuit.
I'm pretty sure temps do not go over 60°C.
