Yes you should uninstall those drivers

Install the latest ones for your card and OS

I idle at 63

Fucking AMD and their not so good dual monitor handling

without dual monitors idle temps is 37, plug in second monitor and I'm up to 63 - try gaming and it goes to 87

anything under 90*c is safe

Well, those driver updates and that program Toasty sent me worked great. I still get a 3-5 second black screen when I'm playing sometimes (not occasionally, rarely) but at least I know it's  not overheating.

My 9200 is 60-70c when not running any games and 40-50c when running games
The Gt 440 is around 30-37c when not running games, and is around 55-60c when running games

You really run 350w on that gfx card? Go onto newegg's power supply calculator. Im 90% sure that that 300w requirement is in addition to whatever you need for your hdd and cpu, which is a lot more than 50 probably.

I plugged in some info for mid range parts with your gfx and got 338w. That is cutting it really fucking close. That shits on you man. As for me, I run 100 - 200w psu higher than I need for security sake.
