View Single Post - Game (Assassin's Creed) keeps crashing with wierd graphical glitch

The card was running at around 80c while playing the game. Downloaded Rivatuner and manually set the fan speed to 75%. It was making a tremendous noise but it allowed me to play the game for a bit longer before it packed up again with a error about the display drivers stopped responding. From what I have gathered Assassin's Creed has been causing alot of cards to overheat for no apparent reason (Buggy coding?). Don't really see why Assassin's Creed should cause my card to overheat when Crysis with everything on High does not.

Should I try and up the fan speed even more or does anyone have any suggestions?

Oh I also have the Antec 900 Gaming case and it has a fan that draws air from the outside and passes it over the graphics card to provide even more cooling.
