Did you try to play games for a long time, with the stock cooler.
i'm amazed about all the gammer which are still using stockcooling and the teperature stays warm for 5 hours. And if i say they need to watercool it, just like you cpu and memory, because high temps degrease 1. the lifespan of your gear ( especially mb with cheap capacitors) enemoursly, but they overclock the graphiccard at the same time , while the effectivity decreases , caused by too warm components, they want also higher ratings from the card by overclocking. That's why i never by second hand cards or mb's or cpu's. Does the card still work; if not, does it smell burning? and did it broke, while gaming?????
