Can CoD UO burn out your video Card?

[Halo 2 Hater]

Can It? Cause now when im playing it just friggen shuts off right in the middle of when I'm playing. like, the Monitor just goes black and shuts off. If this happens does it mean im burning it out or do i just have a virus? My Video Card is a Radeon 9800 Pro.

Im guessing the card is getting to hot and it is automatically being shut off so it isn't fried. Or it could be a Power supply issue.

Happen in any other games? Specfically games that are more graphic intensive.

I doubt its the power supply. Because not just the heat sinks on the Card are hot the entire card friggen burns the hand. Could it be my Fan on my card I swear the fan is tiny and isn't worth crap. If thats the case could I just order a fan and have like a geek squad guy fix it?

I would look into underclocking or a new fan.

lol i dont think its caused by the video card because COD isnt very graphic intensive

Underclocking?

Shouldn't do that. Has the same effects as extreme underclocking. :/
