Hello!
Has someone an idea, how to cool additionally a Asus V6800? When I´m playing Q3 or watching a DVD the CPU temprature is sometime above 68 degrees celsius.
The effect is, that my system somtimes makes unexpected reboots.
I installed a Air conditioner card with 2 fans blowing (not directly) to the GPU with no effect. Another single cooling fan sucking away from the grafikcard also brought no success.

Regard ONU

Try giving the extra cooling to the cpu instead of the video card as it is probably causing the reboots, video vards usually cause lockups.

If you're measuring the temp using the ASUS prog., make sure you have the updated version from thier web site. It is more accurate. I would agree that it's probably your CPU rebooting the system. Is it oc'ed? IT may need additional cooling.
