    Removing shroud/heatsink on a evga 8800gt?

    Hey guys, due to my gpu overheating lately I'm planning to do a thorough job cleaning out the dust in the heatsink and fan area. I would normally just remove the shroud but eVGA designed a lot of these cards with clips instead of screws so the only way to take the shroud off seems to be to first...

    Computer randomly restarts - PS issue?

    I've been experiencing similar problems lately and have a 500w antec smartpower that's about 5 years old. I'll be replacing it soon. I've always heard a PSU that fails can screw up other components. Is this a guarantee or just a possibility? Basically what I want to know is what my level of...

    Computer shutting down when gaming

    I'm not sure what's going on here, I started experiencing these problems a short while ago. My computer will reboot after being ingame (bad company 2 or starcraft 2) for a couple minutes. The cpu and gpu temps seem to be fine. I use speedfan and rivatuner to monitor them. I noticed my...
