Hi,I have a x1800xt 256MB 625/750 card Im getting temps above 100C on load and idealing at 80C .My power supply zebby 500W platinum series.

Can any one help me please???
 
try using techpowerup ati tray tools to set the fanspeed manually.
i am not sure if this will help since your temps are crossing 85-90deg so i guess the fan might be already running on full speed but still give this a shot.

otherwise clean the dirt from the card & apply thermal paste if u can & check. also check if there is nothing blocking the card in the cabinet & its not really cramped up.
 
@stormblast There is no dirt on the card and i dont know how to apply thermal paste.I ran ATI tool scan for articrafts ,After 3 minutes the temp reached to 103C But no errors detected.Nothing is blocking the card.

I think its SMPS issue.Can a zebronics 500W Diamond series work???My card is sapphire.

yes the Zebronics 540W Diamond Series aka Zebronics PowerOne 540W can handle it well as Switch uses it with a X1900XT 512MB & a C2D E6400 @3.60GHz

Funky uses a Zebronics 640W Diamond Series aka Zebronics PowerOne 640W with a 8800GTX 768MB & a C2D E6600 @3.60GHz
 
when i switch on my system.Its not starting when i switch off my monitor for some time and switch it on then it is getting starting.otherwise it is freezing.
