What did surprise me was the CPU temp, hitting 50 degrees within a few seconds on TvT, but staying at around 44 degrees on World of Tanks.

The CPU is 35 degrees on idle and should only be running at around 35 degrees even when overclocked??

My guess is that the thermal paste that was on the cooler is not up to the job, so I will order some quality paste and refit the cooler to see what effect that has.

At least it will be cheaper than a new graphics card.

Hi Rob,

If you do decide to get a new ati video card here is some screen shots of
my setting using ATI Tray Tools:
At the mouse courser is the GPU temp @ 49C (120.2F) and
My Fan speed 73% of 100%



This is the Fan speed RPM to GPU temperature in Centigrade
