That thing operates at over 100C? You're lucky it isn't bricked by now. Remove the card if you can and blast it with compressed air. If you can't remove it blast it anyway. I almost guarantee a giant cloud of dust will come out. Get nTune from Nvidia and see if you can't jack up the fan speed. The temps on that thing are insane.

[QUOTE=mgear;16126703]I think it's a laptop, since he said opened and closed it.[/QUOTE] no desktop
[QUOTE=mgear;16126703]I think it's a laptop, since he said opened and closed it.[/QUOTE] So? I can open my desktop. Besides, I've never heard of a GF 9800 in a laptop. Hell my 8800 is thicker than most laptops.
