well, it took long enough to crash again since my last post, it was running OK with ocassion screen blinks.. but today it crashed once i started GTA 5

No i don't have spare hardware, but the integrated GPU works fine. For now i decided to hook the GTX 960 again and have a last test.. im running GTA 5 now without an issue, this is weird... let see if it wont crash again.

Actually no it wasnt a driver issue, my pc still freezes at random times (sometimes with no games running, but the gpu is connected) i thought it was ok after driver downgrade, but no it froze again and a gray screen... I guess it's time to bake it, eh? since there's no repair shops nearby and no warranty.

Wow that actually might just solved it, rolled back to 2015 driver and i havent seen a problem yet Never thought it could be drivers lol. Thanks man

i found drivers from 2015 ill try it and see then.

Hello guys, im new here I have a Zotac GTX 960 4 GB that is been working nicely for almost 5 years now, but recently i started seeing my PC crash randomly while playing games (even DOTA) with the screen going to black or sometimes gray, and all i can do is turn it off. The crash is so random, i've tried to underclock the card with MSI AB -100 MHZ core clock and also memory clock together, but to no avail. Sometimes the screen flashes black screens and sound stops like its about to crash but it doesnt crash and goes back normal. Temperatures are normal CPU runs at 60 degrees C when playing dota, and GPU doesnt cross 80C, it runs at 70C while playing dota. The strange thing is that i run benchmarks and stress tests on the GPU, GPU temp goes up to 80C+ but pc doesnt crash whatsoever. So i ran GPU-Z to log GPU sensors readings before my pc crash, and this is the last few lines from the log file ( PC crashed at 6:30 ) Date, GPU Clock [MHz], Memory Clock [MHz], GPU Temperature [C], Fan Speed (%) [%], Fan Speed (RPM) [RPM], Memory Used [MB], GPU Load [%], Memory Controller Load [%], Video Engine Load [%], Bus Interface Load [%], Power Consumption (W) [W], Power Consumption (%) [% TDP], PerfCap Reason [], VDDC [V], CPU Temperature [C], System Memory Used [MB] 2019-12-04 18:29:57 , 1238.3 , 1701.0 , 70.0 , 58 , 1944 , 1095 , 53 , 33 , 4 , 4 , 70.3 , 33.8 , 4 , 1.1870 , 60.0 , 4982 , 2019-12-04 18:29:58 , 1238.3 , 1701.0 , 71.0 , 58 , 1944 , 1094 , 56 , 34 , 4 , 4 , 69.5 , 33.4 , 4 , 1.1870 , 60.0 , 4982 , 2019-12-04 18:29:59 , 1238.3 , 1701.0 , 70.0 , 58 , 1944 , 1094 , 52 , 32 , 4 , 4 , 69.3 , 33.3 , 4 , 1.1870 , 61.0 , 4982 , 2019-12-04 18:30:00 , 1238.3 , 1701.0 , 0.0 , 58 , 1944 , 1094 , 52 , 32 , 4 , 4 , 0.0 , 0.0 , 0 , 0.0000 , 57.0 , 4982 ,
