name='GavX' said:Same issue for me, but I assumed you weren't as newbie as meMy core just overheated after about 20seconds, but I actually got a POST display so I knew the card lived, otehrwise I may have cried. Glad you got it all sorted, I also had the memory pads on but the extra height ment the GPU was not in contact I think, so like you thermalpaste done it for me. It appears our problems were quite similar!
Yep, it just made me so annoying, I'm n00b too mate
