I've built PC's and handled parts before but I've never actually opened any of my GPU's ever. My GTX 590 seems to be running a bit hot, and the fan is clear of dust and spinning just fine so I'm thinking it might need new thermal paste. As I've said, I've never opened a GPU before so I'm not sure how difficult it is, anything I might need to watch out for and do specially. It's gotten to a point where I disable SLI on the card because with it on it's always in the 90C+ range. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
