Hi folks,
Just needing some advice on my Palit Jetstream Geforce GTX 680 that i purchased. Just to add that i purchased it "new" on ebay The main problem that I'm having is that whenever i try to play any game, it crashes immediately.
Originally when i first installed it, I put the card into one my MB's Pcie 3.0 slot and downloaded the latest drivers from Geforce's website on the internet. After doing this I would get an error stating that "Display Drivers had stopped responding, but it had recovered". Therefore, i tried older drivers with the same results.
I then installed the drivers on the disk that came with in the box with the graphics card and they seem to have stopped this error, however, I cannot play any game without it crashing.
I am running MSI afterburner and the temperatures are fine, however, when i load up a game, the GPU usage rockets up to 98%, the core clock rockets up to 1189 and the Memory Clock shots up to 3150, this happen even i play older games that are not that demanding.
So far i have tried:
1. Installing new drivers
2. Changing the card to the other Pcie 3.0 slot on the MB
I have read about driver issues with the GTX 680 cards, however, after getting rid of the "Display drivers stopped responding" problem, I now feel it might be the card that is faulty.
Just wanting to know your thoughts on what might be wrong or what i can do to fix the issue. Desperate to get it working as i have finally spent all this money to improve my graphics and FPS.
Thanks, Greig
