1st - clean your cooler fins for the card - make sure they are clear and ensure your case/card has sufficient airflow, report back temps

edit: you can remove the pastic shroud for the card to aid cleaning

but card is working fine on other computer.and from this computer if i stop activity and stop using card temprature comes normal at 45 but during cross fire activity temp goes to 105

Maybe one card is suffocating the other. Is the other computer crossfire as well? Have you seen better temps with the case open?

Also, do you have some sort of fan control utility? Maybe you're accidentally limiting the fan speed.

 

[falak]

yes on other computer with cross fire works perfect
i am using catalyst cc to control fan and on both computers using same

and i tried even with 1 card but still heating

Is your fan speed set to 100 percent?

+1

If your cards both work fine inside one system, but overheat in another system it's very likely that it's an air-flow problem.

Put the cards inside the 'problem' computer, leave the side panel open and blow a house fan at the open part of the pc...

 

[falak]

yes fan speed is 100% but no luck.


let me try house fan lets see if works

yeah man leave the side panel off and aim the floor fan right into the case...105 is WAY too HOT.GL
