The fan makes a lot of noise while I play some heavy game and the system turns off after some time. Overheating seems to be the cause. Where can I get my graphics card fixed in Delhi and for how much?

is its a single slot card? single slot HD4850 used to be plagued with heating issues. you can try cleaning the fan yourself & reapplying a fresh coat of TIM.
