Hi all...

Sometimes I get a crash screen but the pc is hanged too, I attached an image to describe this error:

OK, so I have working a OC system but not in VGA, the OC it's stable with prime95 and OCCT. I have the latest drivers and my system is up to date

Hi and welcome.

The first thing to do it take everything back to default settings. This probably won't make a difference but it is one less thing on the list.

Next make sure that you have the latest drivers available and install them. It is often best to use a sweeper program to remove the old drivers first.

Also make sure that your heatsink and fan on the GPU is clean and free of dust. Find out what temperatures you are running at. That is the global ones and the GPU specific ones. Both at loaded and idle.

thanks for your tips.

I cleaned the heatsink and fun but I remember in the past that I reemplaced the stock cooler for other also I didn't clean the stock thermal compound and mounted the new cooler over the old thermal.

It seems was the problem, At the moment I haven't any crash but I wait for ensure me.

Idle temps:  30-33ºC
Load temps: 55-60ºC

Hi...

It seems the error has become again. I forget to mention that memories of VGA hasn't heatsinks, so it is necessary to put these heatsinks?

In addition, I tested the VGA with "kombuster software" for stability and no errors, crashes, hangs is presented at past 2 hours. So, the problem could be drivers.

:/ very confused
