hello all,
wow its been awhile since i posted last, i bet you all think your safe from me?? YOU WERE WRONG!!!

PC specs:
CPU
Intel i5 4440 3.1 Ghz
Motherboard
gigabyte B85M-DS3H
Ram
8GB hyperX 1600 mzh
power supply
EVGA 500w(basic version)
video card
Gigabyte GTX 750 TI
**no componets are OC'D
on may third, i had an overheat alarm go off on my video card(using real temp to moniter, now using both to back up/confirm temps) i quickly exited my game and check the temp. that real temp was reporting and it showed my video card hit 75"C,( i know the TJ for my card is about 80-83 give or take.)
ge
since then i have checked to make sure that my fans are spinning, and the heatsinks are clean, to no avail.
i have begun to order parts that i would need in order to replace the thermal paste and pads, however i am worried that the paste i have will cause more damage then it would good.
i have bought(i guess its a knock-off or generic version) of AS5 called Artic Alumina, it is a ceramic based TP.
Thermal paste:
