I assume that is for when you might want to use your card to produce metallic incense. :D Yeah, I don't know why I didn't immediately look at the various other sensor polling programs I had open along with GPU-Z for the false readings after you basically said, hey, you're getting false...

Errr, things just took a left turn, but, I now definitively know what was causing the bizarre readings. Well, the crazy high and low temps, zero and negative amp readings and whatnot made a reappearance. It wasn't the BIOS. It was running Everest Ultimate sensor checks in conjunction with...

Oh, I intend to. I am testing the card out on a few different applications to see if the results stay consistent and am waiting for another reply from the tech that has my support ticket. I intend to point him to this thread and email XFX directly about it as well. I just want to make certain...

Alexsubri, thank you for the offer. As cadaveca said though this must be the same BIOS I would think. BIOS Version 012.019.000.006.036339 BIOS Date 02/23/10 03:08

I'm glad to LifeOnMars. Takes a lot of anxiety off of my shoulders. This is the first rig I have built, and the first time I have had a desktop in ages, so, I don't have any spare parts on which to fall back. If I ever have to RMA this card before I intend to buy a new one, I will have to buy...

He might have been right, but, he wasn't. You were. :toast: At least, I haven't been able to produce any of the previous issues since flashing the new BIOS. Many, many thanks to you cadaveca. I signed up at this forum seeking help partially because this is the home of GPU-Z, but also...

Well then, I must have read that information in a post on some forum or another, as I don't recall or even know if I can look their RMA form prior to beginning the RMA process--though I imagine I could...too lazy to search for it at the moment. Anyway, no need to--your word is gold to me on...

That is very good to know. I had thought that the warranty was that extensive, but I could not find the information that I had previously read stipulating the specifics of the warranty. In fact, their warranty page specifies parameters that it would seem they could refer to if they wished to...

I'm not averse resetting the cooler, so long as doing so doesn't invalidate the warranty. I have an anti-static mat, with a wristband that plugs into ground on a grounded outlet that I can work with. I have the support order in and now I just have to wait to hear back from them. After that is...

Well, first off, thank you very much for the quick and useful reply. To tell you the truth, I imagine that I can take the slight boost in GPU and the slight drop in memory and live with that, if it will stop the throttling issue. Like I said, I didn't notice it in Trine, but, I imagine that I...

Do I need to RMA this card? And if I do, could you explain what has possibly happened to it? Up front, sorry about the length, but, I am trying to provide you as much information up front as I can. I see that often, in cases like this, you folks who help out have to drag additional...
