Recently, at random times when I'd just be sitting at my computer, either just surfing the net or doing nothing at all, then I'll realize that the temperature of my card slowly creeping up to 70C and up, and then I'll start to hear the fan speed up. I check the voltage, and it will be at 1.6V!! (usually around 1.04 at idle). Is there a way to fix this? RMA? I've tried setting an event in rivatuner to reset the voltage to the default if the voltage ever jumps past 1.2, but it's not working. A restart usually fixes the problem, but that's annoying, and that's only if I happen to catch it.
