I have a bit of an issue with my desktop computer, where my graphics card overheats, which then causes all output to my monitor to cease, forcing a hard restart. I have a 120mm case fan in addition to all the standard fans, heatsinks, etc.
Basically, what I'm wondering is if there's anything I can do to solve this heat issue. The room the computer's in isn't a particularly hot room, but with summer coming up it'll get hotter and hotter, causing more and more problems
Any suggestions? As of yet I've been dealing with it by taking off the side of the case and having a full-size fan blowing into the case, which evidently keeps it cool enough
However, that's not exactly a long-term solution.
