GTX 780 Ti WindForce - PROBLEM
« on: August 30, 2014, 10:57:44 am »
Hi all,

a couple of months ago i have bought a new PC... at that time it was a beast for me.. massive upgrade.
But my smile didn't last too long... i had loads of errors while gaming... BSODs... \Device\Video3 errors in event viewer etc.

Sometimes games were just freezing, but lately i also noticed that i have some texture problems...
That is why i downloaded 3DMark11 to test the GPU... and that is what happened from the start...

Do you think that qualifies for a warranty exchange?

Nothing is OC'ed in the PC, CPU/GPU/RAM all in stock speeds.
BIOS is up-to-date, and all drivers as well.

Kind regards
Arthur

There are some items you can check first:
Drivers (reinstalling, try old versions(gigabyte site)you'll have tried this a few times by now i guess:( ... )
Temps, OC GURU ll
You have a good quality PSU 600W+
Remove any other peripherals, including stuff plugged into the M/B thats not needed to run
Memory test, lots of freeware to help
Bit harder:
Default/re-setup your M/B, read the manual
OS reinstall if possible, spare HDD plus demo windows can help ease the pain here, but rules out anything else installed

Then you should contact your retailer and keep your fingers crossed.

good luck
