Well I noticed my temps were getting alot hotter so I just figuered Id take it apart add a new coat of tp. When I took the card out I looked at the bottom and its brown like it burned out and it runs half way down the card and then all of a sudden a strong smell starts to emerge from the card. Cat urine yes cat urine..I said (#&%$#&#) $&#&##%%%$##) &##) #&@. For now the card still works I'm just glad nvidia couldn't keep up with the demand because I'd be out a gtx 680 right now.

They make metal and plastic cases for computer components. You can find a good but cheap one for well under $100 these days. If you did have a case, maybe put some deterrent on top or else in a place where nothing can crawl on top of the case.

I've heard of people putting mouse traps on top of places a cat should not be, then covering with newspaper. Serves to make tons of noise and scare the cat without hurting them.

Cats are great but you have to get them fixed when they're young otherwise they constantly mark things.

I had my cat destroy a laptop once like that. Luckily it was a 3-4 year old laptop and not something new and valuable, but it was still pretty damn annoying.

Well I think its official the card has now been pooped on. As soon as i start the rig the gpu fan spins at 100 percent beeps a few seconds later then..... nothing.

I feel your pain... but I want you to know your thread made me laugh.

Sounds like a great excuse for a GTX 670 man.

Cats can be loyal friends, this is one of mine from the past. She was very affectionate.
She used to like the heat from the lamp. And chill there. Or by my head if I was watching TV there.
