Those temps are insane, idle mine sits at 36'c and load is mid 60's i do have scary good airflow in my case though

I didn't really think about it til I read this but my 680 will hit 82c whilst gaming, is this a problem?? It idles around 35 or so.
I run fraps and precision x while I play just to keep an eye on things.

As said earlier in the post if you can keep the card temps below 70c this will give the best performance.
If your getting 82c max its a bit warm for a gtx 680 but not serious. Try running a few benchmarks to make sure it does not go above 82c. Also have a look at the cooling in your case to see if you can improve things.
Hi, I've dropped you an email, thanks, and I'm greatful for any assistance you could provide in helping get the RMA process rolling.
Glad you getting that sorted by EVGA. The kfa2 is one of the highest overclocked 680 cards. the overclock is so high (As in this case) - quite a few cards are failing after a few mins into windows, and games especially.
I wouldn't worry so much, as you're not the first and neither will you be the last.

Can i just use Precisionx to increase the fan speed?? on the main screen auto is ticked. if you suggest unticking this what should i set the fan speed at??
Thanks
You can set up a more aggressive fan profile in Precision X. It's fairly simple, a graph with heat and rpms and points to set.

Its worth doing to keep temps down right?? not going to affect anything else is it, apart from a bit more noise.
Total Noob question of the day for those with previous RMA experience 
When sending things back for RMA, do you package it all up in the original box with all manuals etc and ship that back, or is it just the card itself ?
Cheers.

My fan profile is set to when it hits 55 deg the fan ramps
to max,just abit more noisy.

Original box helps as obviously it'll be well packaged, but not a necesity. They are not interested in cables or manuals.

Does it affect anything else though? Im guessing it just draws more power from the psu but will it do anything to performance??
Thanks
