Also in answer to Phil, this was 2 hours of gaming with the case fans sets to medium and since two days ago I haven't had any random shut-downs.
Video card noise and random shut down's.

Regardless of that, I have to buy from there since I only have store credit. Can you recommend a card with similar specs that won't have any compatibility issues? The card (Radion 6870 HD) cost about £110 so I am looking for something similar in price.
The website is aria.co.uk
I accidentally posted this update on the system building sub forum, so I'm just reposting here.

Hi Ape-x.
Sorry to see a problem with the GPU.
The 6870 is about the best in that price range. This chart will give you a good idea of performance,
> http://community.fut...om/hardware/gpu Your supply site is a little limited in choice. I see your options as going to another site for another 6870 or gong up to the next level,
> http://www.aria.co.u.../Radeon+HD+7850 Get some reviews on any you consider.
Let us know what you think.

I would not consider any 600 series below the 670. The further down the scale, the more crippled the board, and you are likely to being paying 110 + pounds, way overpriced. Look at this chart again, >

EDIT: I just noticed the 7850's port doesn't have two DVI slots, will I have to buy some mini-DisplayPort to DVI cables?

Use the DVI out and then I would use one HDMI to DVI cable adaptor, this one gets excellent reviews, > http://www.newegg.co...N82E16812576006
Display Port adapters can be a bit hit and miss, unless you go for a active one, about $100

Sorry that my instructions were not clear.
Connect first monitor using the adapter cable, (GPU HDMI out to monitor DVI in.)
Connect second monitor, (GPU DVI out to monitor DVI in.)
