CPU | Intel Core i7-3770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor | CPU Cooler | corsair h100i | Motherboard | Asus MAXIMUS IV EXTREME | Memory | G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory | Storage | Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive |- Video Card | Asus GeForce GTX 780 3GB DirectCU II Video Card |- Case | Phanteks Enthoo Pro ATX Full Tower Case | Power Supply | [XFX XTR 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply]

 

So, after my motherboard died last time, I got a replacement (a second hand mobo I was able to find in my country), but it seems my troubles are still far from over.

 

Last night I was playing GW2, when suddenly my screen goes complete black, I can still hear the game playing though.

PC restarts, the mobo boot screen for some reason doesn't appear, but windowns boots normally, or so I though.

My resolution is stuck at 800x600 and I got some weird blue dots on the screen that change position everytime I move the mouse.

Windows device manager has a exclamation mark on the GPU and error 43.

I used DDU to remove drivers, and then reinstall, but no luck, can't change resolution.

 

So is my GPU dead? Or is there something else I could try?

 

Thanks in advance.

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Yes. I also forget to mention that when reinstalling drivers screen would go black during instalation, and I had to reboot again, although drivers would get installed anyway since I waited a few minutes before rebooting.
