GeForce 7800 GS - Too Cold to Run?

Posted on Thursday, January 04 2007 @ 3:01 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

The same guy was reporting that he’s experiencing some choppy gameplay/performance issues with his BFG 7800 GS OC AGP card; and his card is running at temperatures of 112-117F (45-47C) consistently. So, he contacted BFG Tech support and someone there told him that if his card is running below 40C that this is the source of these issues, and that the graphics card is running too cold! The tech supporter advised him to take off his cooler to ensure the card temperature is above 40C, and everything will be fine..
