Ditto that. It sounds like it may be overheating. Does it have a fan? Is
it turning?

Well I first had to recognize it :-p
It doesn't have a fan but a heat dissipator.
The cpu is nearby with a huge fan. And a
global fan that I can regulate. Both
are working.
It's true that's it's been a bit warmer
than usual here, but nothing so extraodinary
and usually the kernel complains when
the heat is too high (for the cpu).
I increased the speed of the fan and ....
after an hour, everything is still ok!

Can it be the card is getting old ???
Anyway, many thanks to both of you !!
Best,
Amities,
