If it fries it may take your motherboard with it, happened with my Ati 2900HD, card cooked and brought down the mobo on my XPS, cheaper to get a new card than a whole new CPU. TooT Awards

( if you don't have any type of air cleaner ) I just dampen the tip by sticking the tip n my mouth, so it's not to damp and draw out the dust. When placing the card back in, be sure it's tightly in place. Also make sure your CPU fan is cleaned out of any dust bunnies and tightly screwed in. Good Luck. Hope that's all it is. & not that you will need a new Vid card.

Also, the price on the new HD6850 and HD6870 are a little higher than the MSRP (suggested retail price)... My HD5870 is still pushing strong, although the GTX580 look appealing....hardware porn!
