X800 Pro High Temps

That sounds about right, I used to run one of those.

My temps drastically dropped after I installed an ATI Silencer w/ Artic Silver 5.
 
Maybe just a little bit higher than x800pro temps. Video card temps are higher than ever now, it's just our new reality. The fact is, aftermarket cooling does make a big difference.

These are the same kind of temps I was getting on my X850 XTPE. I put my Zalman VF700cu that I had from my previous card (X800pro) and my temps are now 31 idle/52 load. I highly recommend putting this cooler on your card.

I would but I am a little nervous about toying with the card. Especially when applying the past to the GPU without it overflowing but also applying a sufficient amount.
 
It's easy. You want to use about "a grain of rice" in size of thermal compund. Go to the Zalman web site and they have a flash video on "how to". You'll then see how easy it is.
 
I have had my x800pro @ 555/555 for months now and it has never crashed on me or gone over 70 under load.
 
I raised the speeds to X800 XT/X850 Pro speeds (500/500). No artifacts were found for 2 hours but the temps were around 80C. Could this do since this cards temps seem to be above 75C anyway?
 
I used to get higher temps but then I used some AC5. I think a grain of rice is too big. Try half of a grain of rice, a small grain of rice.
