So for some odd reason my gfx card in the main pci-e goes skyhigh warm. No idea why, it only started some weeks ago.
Ive tried swapping around the 3 cards in my case but the first one (no matter what card I put there) will go 70-99 degrees as soon as I start any 3d game. No matter what game or what setting.
Anyone got any idea what might do this? The case is open and ive also tried removing all but one card.
shitloads of new stuff in my pc. Cant keep track of it all.

But I get the same result on my gpu no matter what of my 3 cards I use. I usually run 3-way slii using 3x Evga GTX 570 superclocked cards...but no matter which one I use now (as single card with the other 2 removed) it goes skyhigh. The cpu on the other hand is quite cool.
Edit: Just to clarify - the card in the main pci-e port is the one that get hot really fast as soon as I try to play anything. The fans are clean on all 3.

Have you tried single card in other slot? if it goes sky high there aswell, then i highly doubt it has anything to do with the PCI-E slot, then the thermal paste has been cooked in all cards, or your fan profiles are different somehow?

Have you checked for dust? Just a small suggestion.

I doubt that, usually they use the CPU and not GPU.
I think it's either a mainboard problem (bios settings?) or connected to the PSU.
oh btw. Did you try different gpu drivers or always the same?

I thought bitcoin mining was a hell of a lot quicker of the GPU (if its quicker of the GPU why use the CPU on a miner) , or has that changed now ?

If its only happening on the one PCIe slot, regardless of what card fills it, then that tells me that the M/B may be faulty. Can you get access to another board to test, preferably the same model? Failing that, RMA? if its still under warranty.

Seems that it really can be a mining trojan.. They use GPU.
Disconnect from the internet to find it if that's the problem..
