Hey guys I need some help.
So I was playing WoW on one screen and watching youtube on another and then all of the sudden both screens went black and my fans went on full blast. I could still hear the youtube video playing in the background so I think everything was running still it just wasnt being displayed on the screen. So I let the fans run for a few seconds but it freaked me out so I turned off my computer and let it rest for a bit. Turned it back on and fired everything up exactly how I had it and started my graphics card's monitoring program. The GPU temp started to creep up around 80C. Thats not too bad so I went to the bathroom and when I came back I had just saw the temp reach 102C and before I could stop everything it all went black and the fans went all the way on again. I turned it off again after waiting to see if it would come back after a few seconds. Decided to let it cool for about 3 hours. Went to walmart and got a canister of pressurized air to clear out all of the dust. ( It was pretty dusty). Now I am running it right now and using it to type this up and it is idling at 50C. when I try to run WoW without running youtube at the same time the temperature starts to hike up to a little over 90. I exited out of WoW before it got any higher. So basically I am trying to figure out if I fried my graphics card. Until today I have never had any issues with it overheating. My graphics card is a EVGA Geforce GTX 760 (I know pretty old and outdated but I am a college student). I am sure you guys need more info to help me out but I dont know what else to put. Hoping someone can help me either fix it or help me figure out if I should buy a new graphics card or just build a new rig all together (I dont really want to but may be the best option because this one is kind of old)
Thanks everyone!
