GPU problems? + help me with upgrading

Mirtsi · November 29, 2015

This is my 2years old build http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/Zj7ZNG

My GPU is acting weird. Even when im just browsing web I get a lot of those problems, you would get while benchmarking with too much overclocking. Ingame i get some problems like this: http://puu.sh/lDd3R/604dc1561e.jpg.

Also ingame every now and then my gpu stops working and my pc closes the game.

I have to play fallout 4 with pretty shitty graphics, and still i have to take breaks like every 2hours just becouse these problems gets bigger. (temperature only like 60celsius)

I have tried to blow out the dust etc.

So any idea what is wrong with it and can i fix the problem?

I am anyway bying ssd soon (samsung 850 evo) and i have extra money for new GPU (gigabyte 980Ti)

So is it wise to upgrade to 980Ti and samsung evo 850 with this build or will my older pc parts "bottleneck" this.

Im pretty noob with this kind of stuff so i hope you would be able to help me. Feel free to suggest any other upgrades.

And what do you think about 980Ti options, you prefer something else over this: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-video-card-gvn98tg1gaming6gd

I posted this also in r/buildapc.T

Thanks anyway.

So the word for these problems is artifacting, and it means my gpu is just dying? If thats the case i guess my only question now is about the upgrade. Is it worth to buy 980Ti + ssd without changing anything else?
