Hi all, today I attempted to upgrade my ati radeon x1650 pro fan by installing an arctic accelero s2 heatsink that i thought would cool my card more from its stock cooler...it didnt work -_-. I then decided to fit the stock cooler back on and leave it as it is but know the temperatures on my graphics card are quite a lot higher.

The idle temperature is about 55 degrees and when playing a game like guild wars it rises to 74 degrees :/ whats causing this? When the stock cooler was on before when i left it without installing the arctic cooler the idle temp was 42 degrees and when gaming the max was 62 degrees.

Please help
