hi
pretty much yesterday my pc made a disturbing noise so i switched it off( sounded like something went wrong with a fan)
Now when i play games the environment will flicker like lights dancing across the screen then the monitor goes black for a few seconds.
i downloaded asus gpu tweak to take a look at what was happening and as far as i can tell everything skyrockets at the point of glitchyness and blackout. For example the temp goes up to 85c + on the gpu as does the gpu clock mhz, memory clock mhz and power target status %.
im saying all this because i dont no if its important or not.
my cpu stays at around 55-60c.
when it reloads i get a notice that says "display driver stopped responding and has recovered. and under that display driver nvidia windows kernal mode driver, version 311.06 stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
i tried using an older driver but it did nothing.
i have tried cleaning everything and put it back together again and still it happens i tried putting the fans to max and playing with the side open and agin it still happens.
i am thinking it is a hardware issue tho i am no expert.
my specs are
OS windows 7 (64-bit) professional
intel(R) core(TM) i7-3770 cpu @ 3.40GHz 3.90GHz
i have 16gb ram
and GeForce GTX 660 on GK106 GPU
i do no overclocking as i dont no how.
sorry for the long essay and any and all spelling/grammer mistakes.
any help would be great and i would really appreciate it.
many thanks
Kane
