Could be an issue with the heatsink mount. Have you pulled it apart and put non-terrible stock TIM on the chip?

I'd suggest doing so if you haven't.

EDIT: Are the mounting holes the same as an X1*00 reference card? I have an x1800xt doing nothing, the cooler would probably work way better. Seeing as that's a non-reference card I highly doubt it'd work though.

The Thermalright V2 did me proud on my old X1900XT - but I'll also let you know that soon after my X1900XT had problems like yours it pretty much died. Well, it was causing "dead" pixels on my desktop while not even in a game, so I considered it done.
