Not sure of but I just updated my 5870 to the new driver, and while ever other game in my arsenal is running fine, Battlefield, Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Crysis, you name it max settings... now when I run Silent Hunter at max settings... something I've been doing since release, I'm building up heat so fast that I have no choice but to shut down, and on one occasion the computer went ahead and shut down on its own.. I'm talking 100C and up... quickly.. like before I can even get out of the sub pen... I have set my fan speed to 100, and reduced the graphics level to medium and i'm hovering around 80-90 C which seems ridiculous... when Crysis or Modern Warfare 2, or Bad Company 2 don't get me over 60 C.. ever. I'm running three case fans.. in a central air house that never gets over 68....
This is just insane..
