Hey all,

 

So recently I have been getting artifacting with my 7770. But today my computer had a really bad "episode" of artifacting, also the AMD driver said it had stopped working. Also, i fold basically 24/7  (only not when playing games). Could someone please help and maybe tell me what is causing this?

 

Thank You

check temps, clocks, and power draw. It could be on its way out. Try underclocking it 

I just checked afterburner and while I am folding, it says that my gpu is at 0% load and temps are at 40.

did you use the amd cleanup utility or just install the new driver over the top?

Fresh drivers on a formatted hard drive.
