Hi,

I have a Nvidia 8800GTS 512 which at idle runs at about 50-55 degress core temp. During gaming it spikes to approx 80-85 degrees and sometimes causes graphical glitches and crashes.

Should this be happening at these temperatures, not sure if these are high for this card or not.

Also, would an aftermarket video card cooler help a lot or should I be looking at cooling the internal PC more generally, MY CPU runs at about 60 degress when gaming.

If you guys need more info let me know as I'd appreciate any advice.

Thanks
