I don't think its overheating as I've had the catalyst control center open when I've been playing games and the gpu is averaging at 60-62c which I don't think is bad for a gpu.
I can't comment on different versions but I'm running the latest drivers now and when I click on 'check for updates' it tells me I'm running the latest.
Right now there is very little installed on this pc as I reinstalled Windows about a week ago, I run very few programs and no fancy or pointless things like skins or such. also in my gpu control options I have put all the options to 'high performance', didn't seem to make any difference.
I'm 99% sure the card is in the right slot, I put it in the same slot I took the old one out of, I believe its the top slot.
This is really puzzling me, normally I'd go and buy a new graphics card as this is pretty old anyway but right now I'm unsure if the gpu is the problem and so am not willing to throw money at it, if it won't improve.
Thanks again.
