6800GT Problem

[DarkColonel]

I have a PNY 6800GT. I have quite a few problems. Biggest one being my temps, i idle at 65C and this is using 61.77, 69.77, 69.93 and so on. My other problem is that when I tried to OC and had to do the testing, it passed any clocks given (EX, 550/1.5) and using coolbits auto-detect feature it does the same thing, the blue bar just goest to the end, than starts again, same thing forever. What is going on? This is very un-usual.

Sounds like you have the temp. bug. The latest 76.41's will fix that. I just installed them (may I recommend the HD ones from XG) and they dropped my idle GPU temp from 64C to 50C.

As far as OCing is concerned, manually OC. I wouldn't trust the clocks that the Auto-Detect gives. Set it at a known value and then work your way up in increments of 5MHz or so.

I dont do the auto OC, it was just as a test. Its not a driver issue, ive tried many many many many many drivers and all giving same temps

whats your case cooling like?

Its rather decent, CPU temps are 30C on idle, load to 35ish on load. Its a 2ghz norhwood at 2.8Ghz Stock cooling.
