Computer keeps crashing after a couple minutes of running a load and maybe 10 minutes without a load, can see artifacting before either the application closes or computer crashes. Running Unigine Valley to stress test the GPU.
Previously had 2 GTX 980 in sli and thought it was the old drivers messing with it so ran DDU in safe mode and the problem almost seems worse after reinstalling the correct drivers again.
I've read the the PSU might be the problem, the HX1000 I have I bought off ebay so maybe it could be bad. I have an EVGA 750B2 that I bought brand new so maybe switching it out could help but I've never seen artifacting due to a PSU before, doesnt mean that I'm wrong thought lol.
I've attached a couple pics of the artifacting I've seen. From what I can tell the GPU is dying and I've seen somewhere that boosting the power limit on the card could help but I'm doubtful.
The card was bought from Microcenter and I have the receipt for it but I'm not sure how their 2nd hand warranties work. Any insight/help is much appreciated.
Tldr: bought 2nd hand 1080ti and it has artifacting and crashes a lot.
