Re: Cooling fan problem?
The heatsink may simply be clogged with household dust - which acts as an insulator. I have to take the heatsink off my graphics card every few months, clean it thoroughly and replace the thermal compound, otherwise there are temp related problems (down-clocking, etc). When I do that, I usually do the same for the CPU heatsink and fan as well.
