My thought? Pull out the 6800 and stick in any card you might have lying around (or even run off the onboard video) and play some graphically intensive games. Rule out the 6800 as the source of the overheating problem before you do anything drastic.

I don't have any extra video cards lying around, but now that you mention taking the card out, I think it would be nice to test the video card on another motherboard. I think I'm gonna try plugging it on my friend's computer and see if the freezing carries over to his system. If the problem turns out to be motherboard incompatibility, I think I'm going to shoot myself.
