GPU Crashes

[nipplesalad]

Hey guys, i think i have a problem with my gpu. Whenever i play some type of demanding game like fortnite or overwatch my game crashes after a couple minutes.

Games like league of legends and minecraft work fine.

Whenever i crash both my screens turn black with outlines for the windows taskbar and then my everthing turns to what its supposed to show but the game has crashed. Sometimes i get error messages like the application has crashed or your rendering device has been lost. 

I have already cleaned my pc and gpu and unistalled all gpu drivers and installed new ones. The gpu doesn't have absurdly high temperatures and it's always around 100% ingame and it stays like this untill it crashes and drops down to around 5%.

Does anyone know how i might fix this? Here are my specs:

- i5 4460

- r9 380 2GB (from msi)

 

Thank you so much!

Did you uninstall the GPU. drivers with DDU?

Is your BIOS, Windows, Game up to date?

How high are the temps actually?

I uninstalled them with the amd cleanuputility

Windows and my games are up to date, i dont know anything about the bios being outdated

the temps are around 80 degrees celsius under load (my fans spin up when necessary)

And/or run some fur mark and see if it crashes

GPUPI is better suited for finding miscalculations of the GPU,

If the GPU has a miscalculation GPUPI will stop and display an error since GPUPI heavily relies on accurate GPU calculations.

 

Same is with Prime95 and CPUs

It means that the GPU is bad,probably dying.

Is there something i can do about that? If i reduce the reduction size it does work

Because that decreases the load win the GPU. Try to undervolt/clock it

I'll try that, thank you!

I would recommend both underclocking and undervolting as well.

You can use GPUPI to check if the underclocking fixed it.

And use the 32B HWBOT GPU option
