Yes,

It’s 96 C. Went to pc store too but they couldnt help me either. Bought the system al factory pre made. So dunno what to do anymore. Airflow aint the problem cuz with side case off temp stays the same. Got it for 1 year now and my screen never flics or anything. Il just fry this card up and upgrade to an gtx 660

Hahaha, that’s one way to justify getting a new card, or you can reapply the thermal paste between the heat sink and the GPU itself to lower the temperatures. Alternatively, you can buy an aftermarket cooler for your GPU and use that instead of the stock cooler you’re likely using.

In addition to that you can down clock the card (not what people want to hear), to reduce the voltage and frequency to lower the temperature.

Well i can try the thermal paste. Wouldnt suprise me if there is none. But i searched for an aftermarket cooler but those are kinda expensive for my type of card or they are to big ( and expenisive) to buy one. I have more for my money when i buy a new card.

I have the same problem lately. I kept an close watch on my gpu lately with msi afterburner and i see that when my gpu is loaded at 99% my core clock is lowering itself exactely by 50% and as well does my shader clock. Normaly those are 900 and 1800 but at high gpu load they are 450 and 900. I can notice then that my fps are dropping. And when they are stable again and i check msi i see that my core and shadow clock is at full power and that my gpu load is around 50-70. My temp is also insane. When i play my gpu reaches 96 degrees with full fan speed.

My specs are:

Gpu: nvidia Gtx 550 Ti
Cpu: intel I7- 2600
Ram: 8gb
