[QUOTE="cranky, post: 1814673, member: 9160"] If you've ever wondered why a dog can't walk and pee at the same time, this is it. You have a heatsink that is badly skewed to one side. Basically about half the chip has no contact with the sink at all. Unless you work out a way to add equal pressure on all four corners, you shouldn't be using the card. You also run the risk of chipping the GPU die (it's a naked die and has no heatspreader) if you persist with the uneven pressure. [/QUOTE]
