Also, if a video card fries when it's at full load, there's already something wrong with it. | ||

I believe they limit the fps to 60 in-game and to 30 in the menu. If you were getting >60 before your fps will have dropped. Not noticeably though. | ||

1. i have sc2 running on ultra, 1920x1080 on a 8800gtx 2. my gfx card never surpasses ~80°C not even after running the whole day/weekend on heavy load. 3. its about 2.5years old now 4. i have no fancy special cooling or stuff. just a well done layout so how could it possibly be starcraft? i bet 50% of the problems could be solved with diver updates (drivers in gerneral) Zira | ||

That's exactly what fried my old gpu. I just downloaded the latest driver until i realized 1 week later that nvidia told us on their site to change it asap. Obviously i've not checked it after the download. Just dl the one before the latest driver if you want to be on the safe side Btw isn't 80C a lot ? oO Maybe that's exceptionnal for your video card... | ||
