Hello everyone, I have a serious issue that happening for almost 3-4 months and I couldn't manage to find any solution until now... I'm getting blue screen or a freeze at random times when I open games\applications or after shutting them down for example after I finish a game I exit to desktop, open Discord or chrome fast and then boom freeze, sometimes even when the app or game is running live again it happen randomly. The error is VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE amdkmdag.sys I will also add DXDIAG file The fastest way I have found to get the freeze and blue screen for sure is opening cinebench r20 to stress the cpu and the error will appear after first or more tries but eventually it happens. I dont why it happenes when I stress the cpu while the graphics card not under stress at all. error: ******************************************************************************* * * * Bugcheck Analysis * * * ******************************************************************************* VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE (116) Attempt to reset the display driver and recover from timeout failed.

I have tried almost everything: install and reinstall to newest driver with DDU Switching to different graphics card but same model Switching ram Switching psu reinstall windows Updating bios and chipset disable turbo on cpu to run it on stock clock switch the power option on windows to maximum performance disable \ enable RAM XMP lower the graphics card voltages and clocks checked temperatures reinstall the parts from the pc case using 2 PCIE cables instead of 1 for the graphics card on motherboard raising the cpu level to 7 and usage to 140% Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. DxDiag.txt

Hi guys, I have installed CPU Dual tower cooler on my gpu, the problem I am facing is that it is crashing after 50°-51°C and is running ideal at 36°c. What could be the issue the GPU when ideal runs for hours but when goes above 50°-51°C whole system crashes. I have posted the different thread while making this GPU. Thanks in advance!!! 

Let's get started 1. My audio jitters and makes sounds e.g (errr, eee, aaa, etc) for a couple of seconds maybe even half a second but still noticeable. 2. I do get the Driver error thing and i will tell you what i have tried to resolve it The list is below. The List: Changed the TDR to 8 then 10 then 0 Nothing happened reverted back to original value. Under-clocked my GPU (R9 270x) Back to original Turned up my fans to 80% - 100% Nothing Back to original Try'd to under clock my CPU Back to original Used a different user still happened I have a USB 16gb 3.0 and an extra hard drive so both can be used to diagnose this problem if i have to. MemCheak nothing cam up done it for 24H once then over night to 3pm No errors (Thinking of getting new ram tho) The services that is used to defrag my system is not working Plus Task scheduler not working I changed to not using GPU accelerator Everything worked fine played games that use Direct X still fine Played mine craft Crashed on me same as Flash games and emulators of all sorts crashed. I have Who crashed The program If that's needed. Changing to OpenGL working perfectly nothing happened. Disk error checking thing did that as well. Used safe mode everything fine 3. Fans slow down when the black screen happens and programs crash when this happens some don't. I'm thinking of reinstalling windows i don't have a optical Drive because that one broke. Or installing Linux mint as i side OS

Please allow me start with a big apology to the readers and moderators for creating another thread about Green Screens. Yes, there are many out there, but I've not been able to find any similar to my case, and none of those solutions apply to my case. If you know (after reading my post) a similar thread like this one, please do not hesitate in redirect me there, I need help, really doesn't matter how or from where. With that being said, let's get into business. 3 weeks ago I started to see like a blink on my screen, like a very thins green lines horizontally across the screen. In all the cases, this happened while I was playing World of Warcraft, but all happened real quick, not a big deal, I checked all my connectors, being everything perfectly ok. That was in a weekday, Same week, in the night from Friday to Saturday, again, playing World of Warcraft, the system just crashed, dead, no signal, no sound, just a green/black screen. See pictures how the screen looks like after the failure, same looking screen with moth cards. Screen after failure - album with all pictures in this thread After going through the RMA process with EVGA, they sent me another card, guess what, I installed it last Wednesday. Right after installing it I saw the blinks again and by Friday night, the card crashed again. I've been talking with EVGA technical support, the representative said that the card I sent did not pass their tests, was completely dead. I'm in the process of receiving another RMA from them, but I had the same problem with 2 different cards, so I'm starting to assume that is not problem of the GPU, something else is causing the damage on the graphic card. EVGA has replaced 2 cards, I dont want to take the risk of a 3rd one. Going into details..... RIG: Motherboard: MSI Z68A-GD55(B3), socket 1156 CPU: Intel I5-2500k RAM: * 2 x 4Gb DDR3-1333 Corsair Vengeance , Black Edition working in Dual channel * 1 x 4Gb DDR3-1333 Kingston Storage: OCZ Agility 4 SSD 256Gb (SO) + Seagate HDD 500Gb (Massive storage) PSU: OCZ 700W MXSP 80+ GPU: Nvidea GTX 660 from EVGA, reference design. 2 Monitors 22" in extended desktop mode, using HDMI interface for the main monitor (where I play all my games) and DVI-D for the 2nd monitor. Windows 8.1, EVGA Experience, and Precision X (software used to monitors GPU temperature) For your information, since the first card failed, I improved the cooling inside the case, just in case the problem came from overheating and after installing the RMA card I started to monitor the GPU card at every moment. FOr that I used Precision X, software provided by Nvidea to tweak their GPUs. The highest temp recorded was 66 Celsius degrees whiles I was playing Company of Heroes 2. In my conversation with EVGA tech support, the representative said that 66 degree is not a critical temp for that card and should not be that the reason for the problem. He suggested checking the 12V rail of the PSU. To monitors the voltages I use MSI Control Panel, provided by MSI with its motherboard. Voltages recorded by the motherboard For the 12V channel, the shown voltage is only 2, 12.313V and 12.408V, changing from one value to the other in NO specific interval of time, there is NO pattern in the variations. I also contacted OCZ tech support requesting help to diagnose the health of my PSU. Waiting their response. Folks, sorry for the length of this post, I'm trying to present all the details for you so you can get a better idea and hopefully help me finding the possible cause of the problem. Last, but not least, I want to talk about some else weird thing that I noticed while I was dealing with the problem. See the next pictures. All these pictures is to show you the wobble I noticed in the PCI-e slot and the locking system in the chasis does not help either. That case is a Cooler Master HAF 932 Advance, and yes, I checked twice, I tried using the 2 PCI-e slot available on my mobo and still the problem is the same and I'm 200% sure that the card was/is properlly installed in the slot. slot wobble - card lifted slot wobble - card by its own same problem, but seeing from the back of the case rear view upper position rear view by its onw position FYI, if you let the card by its own, its stays in the lower position (gravity, lol), the higher position happens when I use my finger to evaluate the magnitude of the wobble. Bare with me on this please...these 2 videos are for the same reason, to show you the wobble. My apologies for the quality, I dont have an studio, neither the proper light, nor a good camara. This shoting was done using my phone with the case lying over the desk and with the light of the room; I even used a flashlight to improve visibility, but I think it's good enough for the purpose, show you the problem. Video - Problem with the locking system in the case Video - wobbling card even being well installed. After all these, my 2 guesses/question about: Is the PSU causing the damage? Is this wobble in the slot which the case locking system does not lock the cause of the problem? What could cause a damage like that in the graphic card? Ok guys, really wish you can help me with this problem. Please feel free ask for more details on any end/item that you may need for your evaluation, gladly I will provide as many/much possible.

So sadly my ROG Strix 1080ti I bought on release date has been having issues were it randomly crashes after playing any game for more than 1 minute. It does this weird pixilation on both my monitors and freezes then the game crashes. I have restored my windows to 2 months ago, updated windows 10 to the latest version clean installed Nvidia drivers and even removed GeForce Experience and still nothing. So my question is should I just buy a 3080 and stay with that. or should I buy a lower end card like a 3060ti or something similar and wait for the 40 series cards to then get a 4080 and sell my 3060ti to get some money back. My current system is a 5900X with a 1000W PSU and I liek to game at 2560 x 1440 with Gsync
