My room gets real hot because of my puter and monitor etc., it gets about 80-85F and when you step outside my room its about 60F, hehe. Well anyway it seems my X1800XT is throttling down alot, I am hearing the fan power up and down, and each time the card throttles down the game I am playing will freeze for about 1 second, I never had this happen with my 9800 PRO. I was watching the temp monitor in Catalyst control center and after playing a game for a long time I have seen it go as far as 80C, I assume at this point the drivers will throttle it down alot, under no load it's about 50C. My question is, is there any way to clock this thing so it wont get that hot, I am not sure if overdrive is active by default.
