Re: ami running my card too hot
Isn't the GT 520 a low-end card made for HTPCs? What are you trying to do with it?
Getting 80 Celsius under load while OC'd sounds pretty normal to me. I'd just get a new card tho. |

Re: ami running my card too hot
Best buy has terrible prices. I have a 520 gt in my computer as a secondary card just to display my 1080p tv. As far as gaming on it and overclocking 80 degrees seems pretty normal. I'd try to return it and get a better card because a 520 gt isn't worth more than 40 dollars.

^ What he said, I've used both and they have good prices and reliability (I prefer tiger direct though)

Re: ami running my card too hot
If you want a good mechanical gaming keyboard, you're more than likely going to have to purchase it online; however, there has been a few times where I bumped into a Razer Black Widow, but I'm not sure if it's really any good for SM/FFR. Plus, I'm not sure how durable it is. It's Razer. :| That's all I have to say. (I only seen one at Fry's Electronics).
And you can purchase a Logitech Illuminated in Best Buy. |
