Problem with GTX 970

[Zerkan]

So I bought an used gtx 970 and it doesnt work in my computer, it shows up in device manager but with yellow triangle (code 43) tried updating drivers, updating bios, reflashing vBios. 

I get black screen and bluescreen, after many restarts i sometimes get picture but with very low res like 800x600 and after a few seconds it restarts again.

I have putted Pcie to primary but still doesnt work, I only get picture when I use iGPU and onboard working together.

I have tried the gpu in an older system and it worked great.

I have an p8z77-v le motherboard

850w bronze power supply

i5 3570k 4.2ghz

24gb ram

i have resetted the card back and forth over 40 times now, tried to fix this for weeks.. reading forums but still no solution. 

I have reseted cmos too.

pc works great with my old gtx 660ti and ive used DDU to wipe all drivers

all connectors is checked, and plugged in 8+6 pin

please tell me if its something u wna know and i'll tell u

its an MSI GTX 970 GAMING 4GB OC EDITION

You have a broken card that you can try baking to revive, or the PSU is trash.

[Zerkan]

PSU is not the problem and the gpu worked with the same PSU in the older system ive tried

So if you run off the iGPU only, is it stable?

 

If so, when you put the GPU back in and connect a display to it, does it crash?

 

If so, again, your card is toast mate.

[Zerkan]

when i have the card in and using iGPU its stable but it shows code 43 in device manager, and if i connect the other screen to the card it freezes. 

but this doesnt happen in the other computer, in the other computer the card works great so im not sure if the card is toast, but ive seen other people have problems with z77 motherboards and gtx 970 but the 970 should work with my z77 motherboard so im very clueless.

RMA it if you can. There is plenty of info online from users with exactly this issue. Seems the only way to resolve it was to replace it.

Well first of all, have you seen that 970 working on another computer (with drivers at 1080p ) ?
If its so you problem is motherboard (upgrade bios?) 
If that 970 crashes when trying to display full hd or when drivers are installed (displaying 1080p) that 970 is broken.Ç

I hope its only a matter of bios   I had same problem with a 780ti coudn't resolve (thought it's a brick)

[userzero]

He said it works fine in the other comp.

 

You're right though OP, it is a problem reported by others so either change out your motherboard and hope it works, or RMA the card.

Yeh I installed the drivers and it displayed 1080p flawlessy in the other pc, so my next step is to replace the motherboard in my comp.

thx for taking time to respond  have a great night guys!
