Can't even say the game is going to be worth buying at this point.

Tonight is the first time I could get through a full match with 5 bots without locking up my computer.

Turns out I was having heat problems because there was a lot of dust built up inside the cooling assembly on my video card. I used a can of air to clean it out a couple weeks ago but apparently it was much more compacted into the heat sink fins below the metal cover on the assembly.

I had to remove six screws to take the 'cover' off the card and then I needed a tooth brush to loosen the dust. It was really hard to get off the card.

My temps prior to cleaning the heat sink were pushing 120c.

It was getting really bad tonight with BF2 shutting down on me.

After cleaning out the dust the temps are back down to about 72c after 10 minutes of BF2 / UT3.

Oh, about the UTGMC? Who knows what will happen.
