Ever since I started playing Command & Conquer: Generals, my video card has been fucking up horribly. it reaches temperatures of 104 degrees celsius when IDLE. What the crap is going on? I just bought this thing a month ago. :( Is there anyway I can fix it? I was thinking of just replacing it but if I don't have to do that it'd be cool.

Im not an expert but do you have space to place another fan inside the base of your computer, their very cheap and suppose to be easy to setup inside there.

i do but i'm pretty damn poor right now. :( and the fan on the gpu was working just fine up until a little while ago. I don't know why it started overheating so bad!

If it's still new, it should still be under warranty (or even under the return policy of the store you bought it from). Contact either and ask about your options. You should be able to get your money back, store credit, or a replacement card :)
