Hello. I recently bought a pre-owned for cheap, which had "non working fans". Actually, they work but are probably filled with dust so they take longer to start spinning. The issue I'm having is the following: the card runs at PCI-E x4, nothing beyond that. I manually set the motherboard to Gen2, Gen3, Auto etc. Nothing made difference. I removed and installed it again twice, and cleaned the PCI-E contacts which weren't actually dirty with isopropylic alcohol. Researching about this issue, apparently it happens when the card has physical damage (ex.: a missing capacitor), which does not seem to be the case. Interestingly, the graphics card also has plastic clamps under the fan, attached to the heatsink. I thought it was opened before, but I compared it to the photos available at TechPowerUp, and it matches up. Photos of the card here. Screenshots of GPU-Z here. Please let me know if anything else can be done, or if the card is faulty.

Hello, My gpu has had revving up and down issues for around a month. With little/no load to the system, the gpu would start going to max RPM to 0 and back again, for around 10-15sec, and then would stabilize. Couldn't find a solution online, Windows is updated and gpu drivers were updated, no gpu over heating. Screenshot example is provided later. Today, I was playing battlefield 4 when suddenly the screen glitched, 80% of the screen turned green and all audio stopped. This again happened but after just logging into windows. This again happened when I got into Battlefield 4 main menu with a crash error "The Error Message reads: DirectX function "Get DeviceRemovedReason" failed with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG ("The device is hung which is typically caused by issues in the graphics driver or aternatively the application"). GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770", Driver: numbers". The freeze also happened when i was just starting my browser. I rolled back nvidia drivers and reinstalled directx but didn't help. Example of glitches: https://prnt.sc/20xs2zk . This is a tame example, only MSI afterburner got messed up, but other times the entire screen would turn greenish and then might turn black. https://prnt.sc/20xs0mc This screenshots shows the gpu's activity and it's revving issues. This is with the gtx770 disabled in BIOS, however the same happens when the 770 is the main graphics unit. Not sure what those activity spikes are and why the fans lose control during them, even though the temperatures are safe. Another thing is that the GPU FAN% stays at 33% while the RPMs oscillate. The shapes of the gpu usage and fans' rpm are always the same. Not sure what's happening. I'll test the gpu with a friend's PSU to see if the power supply is the issue but im still confused to what's happening and why. Currently I'm using Intel graphics to be able to use my PC. Thank you for your time.

Hi so I got a faulty gtx 770 that I'm unsure if the card is dead or not. Problems: - Screen goes black - prompting a reset - Fans go to max speed when the screen goes black What it crashes on: - Crashes on heaven benchmark - at start it crashes after a couple seconds, but after a couple crash cycles it eventually crashes instantly on startup of heaven. - Crashes on CS:GO and League of Legends after a couple some time. - Crashed after trying to run halo infinite and getting direct x 12 error message - unsure why it did this What it can run: - It seems to be able to run Furmark, and is able to heat up the gpu to atleast 80+degrees What I've tried(none successful): - Cleaned out dust w/ air duster - Replaced Thermal Paste - Lowered Core clock/Mem clock/Power limit in afterburner - changing to aggressive fan curve - Driver DDU - Tried on two different PSU's - Tried on two different motherboards So after all that it still crashes and crashes even worse, wondering if anyone else got has any idea's before I consider the gpu dead. Thanks! Attached will be a sensor log from gpu-z GPU-Z Sensor Log.txt

Hey guys im looking to upgrade my PC from this what should i get budget 200-2000 usd and should i upgrade my motherboard?

Recently I upgraded my gpu from gtx 770 to gtx 1060 - 3gb due to getting good deal on one. I’ve however countered an issue with the 1060. my fps on csgo went crazy bad. Was hitting quite stable 200 to 300 Depending on the map, with surf maps etc I was hitting 450+. Now with the 1060 I seem to struggle with getting ”even” 200 on most maps, going as low as 100 to 120 on maps such as Overpass. I didnt change anything else on my setup, i5-4670k @ 4,2ghz, 8gb kingston ddr3 1600mhz, corsair 650w bronze (if i remember correctly) and some 250 gb ssd. The gpu runs around ~30% while in csgo, which ofc is cpu heavy game but I just dont get how a gpu change can fuk up my fps so hard. I found a lot of threads about people having issues with -10XX cards & csgo but not any solutions, so guys any info is welcome. Would love to keep the 1060 but if it performs so much worse there is no point.. e. Resolution etc doesnt really have any effect. Im playing on quite low settings already.

Hey ! For ever I had a weird glitch w/ afterburner, the software think that the min rpm fan speed is 1030 and the max 1050 so as soon as I install afterburner I'm stuck w/ fan at max speed. This still happen after a fresh windows install. I will try to uninstall afterburner and I do have the last driver for my gpu. The exact model is a PNY GTX 770 4GB. If anyone think the problem may come from some where else then afterburner, I'm open to suggestions.

Hey guys my friend has a GTX 770 he doesn't use and he said if it works in my PC i can use it. I need some help determining that. PS i know my PC isn't the best. Current Specs: Click Here Every bit helps, Thanks - Master

I am selling my cards to a potential buyer. He has a corsair cs 750w psu. I am pretty sure he got a second orbthird generation i5. Will it be safe for him to run my cards with that psu? The cards are gigabyte gtx 770 windforce 3x 4gb. So they are factory overclocked. Thanks in advance

my rig I7 3770k @ 5ghz Z77A-G45 MB MSI Twin forzr GTX 770 2gb 8gb Corsair Dominator 1600 Corsair 750 watt PSU Should I just buy a better single GPU or buy another GTX 770 for cheap and run SLI

Hi! so one of my current PCs has a rather small microATX case with horrible airflow but I dont want to ditch the case, so would getting a video card with a blower/reference style cooler benefit me? Right now I have an Asus GTX 770 with the 3rd party DirectCU II cooler and when I play games like battlefield 4 or run minecraft with shaders, the GPU temps are around 80-83c, which is around reference temps but the other components in the case are getting quite toasty along with the card since the card exhausts the air back into the case which only has one 92mm exhaust fan.. Plus when the side panel is closed, I think the card is recycling the hot air that is stuck in the case. My question is that would it make more sense for me to trade my Asus GTX 770 card for a reference style GTX 770 to reduce down temps and stress on other components. here is the amount of clearance that my GTX 770 has to breath.

I upgraded from a hd6850 and a 500w psu To a gtx 770 and an Evga 600w not bronze just a reg 600w and i am getting random shut downs after minutes of playing games like csgo, and etc. And sometimes it wont let me boot onto the gpu when its a priority display device.

Soo... I bought PUBG and not getting 60 FPS ghehe surprise. I'm not expecting to hit the constant 60fps but i would like to push it a little further. Anyway I found out the stock fan curve didn't go past 39% so I can go jet fighter mode now. The thing is I'm not sure what I'm doing. Using MSIafterburner so far I got +96 mhz on the core clock +108 MHZ on the memory and +2mV on the core. Getting 78 Celsius now. which is fine for now might change the fan curve a bit to get 1 or 2 Celsius of later. But what how do I know I don't pump to much extra juice in to the core? Any rules of thumb or guidelines you guys follow to get the best OC out of your card? Oh and what do you guys use to stress test? Got metro 2033 redux believe there is a benchmark in there? Anyway cheers for any help

My friends wants to upgrade and I offerred him my old 770 but we wanted to test it before seealing any deal. In my PC the swithc from a 770 to a 1080 was "plug n play" take out, put in, restart, finished! I have a i7 3770k MSI Z77-GD65 (non gaming) windows 10 on an SSD BeQuiet! 630W L8 CM main Monitor connected with a Dual-Link DVI cable and the card worked fine in my system. His PSU is to weak so I took mine out of my system to his house just to power the gpu and have the rest of his system powered by his own PSU. He has a Lenovo prebuilt i5 2310 (iirc) some OEM mobo some OEM crap PSU GTX 720 (iirc) I don't remember which windwos version. it was either 7 or 10, more likely 7 Main monitor (medium res) with VGA and a TV(low res) connected via HDMI My system just boots normal with the 770. BIOS ... then Windows His system booted but either didn't really work or just failed to output to the right display We had only the HDMI TV connected since the 770 has no VGA without an adapter which we didn't have at the time fans were spinning but the screen kept saying "No Signal". I first thought this was a problem with the configuration of the main monitor output so we put int he old GPU which worked fine again. Then we changed the HDMI TV to main screen and switched GPUs again pluggin only the TV in. Still, no signal ... I verified afterwards that my GPU was not brocken by running it in my system again. It worked totally fine I will probably ask him to give me his system for a few days so I can find out what the problem is but idk really know what the problem is right here. Please help me LTT community

This is my current rig: I want to play a new game that has been released in Early Access (and by that you know it's poorly optimized), the game is Dark and Light, however I purchased the game, tried to play it and had to install it in one of my hard drives as the SSD is pretty much done for. The game performed poorly, a lot of frame drops / freezes and graphic glitches. So I'm thinking on upgrading some parts, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right... Could anyone suggest or confirm this is the right thing to do? The CPU I think is more than enough for now, I'd love to run this game in Early Access on 50-60 FPS (or higher if possible) Looking at amazon in my country, the GTX 1080 is just about $100 USD over a GTX 770 4 GB, I was considering SLI but I guess I'd rather sell the GTX 770 and use some of the money to fund the GTX 1080 Gigabyte GV-N1080G1 GAMING-8GD Graphic Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB, DDR5, 256 Bit, DVI, HDMI, 3 x Display Port, PCI-Express x16 Guess it does fit in the MOBO as it's DDR5 as well? Thanks for any help provided.

Hello LTT Forum, I have the opportunity to get a new graphics card, but stuck between the decision of a GTX 770 2GB Reference Card, or a Zotac GTX 960 2GB Card. Which is the better card and for what reason? I mainly play CSGO, PUBG, and stream so having a second monitor would be great while having a stable 200+ fps in CSGO. The current specs I have are as shows: Intel i5-6500 GTX 750 TI 16GB RAM Gigabyte H110M-A Corsair CX500M 1TB Hard Drive 240GB SSD Thanks, PWD

Welcome! We are going to conduct an experiment! I have always wondered. Can you SLI a GTX770 2GB with a GTX680 2GB? Will the GTX 680 need to be flashed to a 770? These questions will be definitively answered. I searched over like 10 google pages (thats like half the internet) and I did not see anyone that ACTUALLY tried SLIing these cards together. Both of the sides have provided theories as to why or why it will not work but no one has tried it. I have an EVGA Superclocked GTX 680 2GB card that I got back in 2012. It's stable and is a daily reliable workhorse. I considered SLIing this because I could get the card cheap and I knew the GTX770 is in fact a refresh of the 680. Some other chatter I saw about this. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2182003/sli-gtx-680-gtx-770.html http://www.overclock.net/t/1396119/can-a-gtx-680-sli-with-gtx-770 But no one confirmed a result. I have seen confirmation that a GTX 680 can be bios flashed to GTX 770 with gpu boost 2.0 functional and I know my card can run the 770 bios speeds. This gap in humanity's knowledge ends tomorrow (probably) as I flash my GPU to a 770 and SLI to some random GTX 770 I pick up off Kijiji (Canadian Craigslist) and hope it JUST WERKS. : ^) I am acquiring the 770 tomorrow (later today technically) and will report further. I'm going to thank this thread in advance as I'm sure I'm going to be using it. UPDATE 1: Having some trouble with the flashing process. I'm using a GTX770 2GB Superclocked bios as I have a 680 2GB Superclocked, but no matter which switches I add to the nvflash command it refuses to flash, citing GPU mismatch even if I use "nvflash64 -4 -5 -6 770.rom", I tried using --protectoff and it seemed to turn off the write protection. " -f " isnt forcing it either. Any advice? EDIT: After downloading old version of NVFlash it's ALIVE! Update 2: As seen here we now have access to temp limit (GPU Boost 2.0). The card seems stable under 100% real game load. temps and speeds are the same but the bios shows up as 770 when i check using "nvflash --version" At this point I have a gtx 680 flashed to a 770 and another gtx 770. I just need to get the pci-e power cables and an SLI bridge that is spaced properly. THEN THE FUN REALLY BEGINS. Update 3: So the cables came and I have installed both GPU's and both are recognized by the nvidia driver, unfortunately, it appears the driver is also smart enough to refuse to SLI them, never fear however. There is software such as hypersli that may make this work. Conclusion: Well, the experiment has been fun. I hope people in the future that have the same question I did see this thread. As it turns out, GTX 680 SLI'd with GTX 770 is not possible even with a flashed card. However, we can see that using differentsli auto, you can in fact make it work, you do not even need to flash the card to a 770. I could undo mine but it's stable and I'm lazy now I've checked in a couple games and I'm getting good scaling, about 80-95%. It appears to be working well. I could not have finished the process of using different auto sli as quickly as I did, without the super helpful thread on techpowerup, and this post in specific that details exactly which driver is supported and how to enable this functionality. https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/sli-with-different-cards.158907/page-89#post-3673305 The main downsides to this are that it's basically only compatible with somewhat older drivers (currently using a driver from may), and that you must enable test mode in windows which gives your desktop an annoying little message. Overall I would only recommend this if you are like me and find a cheap but technically incompatible card and want to eek out a few more months from your system. TL;DR: No you can't SLI a 680 and a 770 unless you use DifferentSLI Auto, even a flashed card will not work.

Hello, I recently bought a Dell R5400 Workstation that I'm trying to turn into a powerful all around PC with workstation capabilities as well as gaming. I has a NON upgradable 750 Watt PSU with 62.4 Amps on the single 12 Volt rail with just two 6 pin pcie connectors . My problem is I was going to use a R9 270 GPU which has one 6 pin power connector, however I found a EVGA GTX 770 still in box for $20 less. I want to use the 770 but it requires an 8 pin and 6 pin so could I use a connector like THIS ONE? Would that safely power the 770? Could I overclock? Thanks

Hey guys so I have a EVGA 770 GTX that I put into my prebuilt HP Envy 700-414. I had to install a EVGA 600 W power supply to support everything. I have it all installed and now I just need some help with hooking it up to my monitors. So I have two monitors with what I believe are VGA cables currently but I believe coming out of the GTX 770 they are DVI-D cords. There are two ports coming out of the graphics card so could I just get a vga to dvi-d converter and plug both of them in to the card so both monitors work? Thanks everything helps. I'm not the best with this stuff.

Doing some shopping for my girlfriend for the holidays and I was looking at getting her an Acer Z35. I had built her a computer a while ago and her current specs are a gtx 770 4gb model and an i5 4670k. She mainly plays World of Warcraft and I want to make sure it's able to support the 2560x1080 resolution or if I should consider upgrading the video card to maybe a 1060 also. Ideally, I'd like her to be able to run at least 80 fps average so she could benefit from the higher refresh rate with g-sync.
