Very interesting point of view, heat that is...
Still, it would not be possible to overheat this animal of a graphic board mounted in an ANTEC twelve hundred V3 with 6 blowers(3 input, 3 output) in the splash screen. I refuse to believe it.
I just tried to start the game, it crashed 2 seconds in the startup splash screen. Tried to check the air temperature coming out of the board, it was cooler than the ambient temp.
Still, I will get a frame limiter software to try it.
Normally, a video card shouldn't overheat from this, but it has been known to cause it, so I'd rather be safe than sorry. I never had issues, but I forced v-sync on for this game (I hated the screen tearing anyway). The Starcraft II menus did the same thing, if you ever heard of that one, so it's definitely something that's happened. For whatever reason, these 2D menus in some games are just seemingly cooking video cards. Many should be fine, but others haven't been as lucky.
Anyway, if that's it, maybe it's just the dual GPU on the card it's not liking?
