COD is overtemping my GPU
 
When playing COD my GPU averages about 90 degrees celcius then climbs to 100...my GPU fan kicks in to cool it down to 90 celcius then fan goes back to my setting of 60 percent ehich is around 2500 RPM...the temp climbs back to 100 celcius and same process over and over again.

On ROF my GPU runs at about 65-70 degrees celcius at all times. Why is COD about to fry my video card? Its showing a full 99 percent load at all times when playing.

I have it overclocked a bit to 797/1594 however when I clocked it back down to normal and still the same thing happens. This game is taxing my GPU too hard. I verified this with two different monitoring programs.

heres a screenshot...hot much?!

better cooling is the only logical answer.

Better cooling is not the answer. I have no problems keeping my temps low in every other game.

I think CoD is the new GPU benchmark we've all been waiting for. I don't know if I've seen another game that taxes the videocard as much as this game.

Look at the fan speed curve - it is not stepping up. Try playing with the fan control settings; you can manually adjust the response as the GPU activity increases.

Looks like your engine needs better cooling, too! I think I'll spend the next few weeks just learning how to fly before going online... Fullreal is going to be lots more fun.

Mate, how I wish we could say that. Instead, bad optimization is the answer...

Yeah, just being positive here. lol

Mine is the opposite, I have a gtx295 that runs at about 85 degrees in all other games but sits at around 63 in COD (it idles @59), dosent seem to be working it at all. Frame rates are still poor, maybe cause the 295 runs in sli?

Yes, sounds like the next patch will address SLI support and hopefully this will include multi-GPU.
