Hey guys, I'm having a pretty major problem with my PC or more specifically my Sapphire HD 7870 Ghz edition video card at the moment. Basically nearly every time I play a game, after what can be 30 mins-few hours, My pc will crash on to one of a few screens. Either completely black, orange with vertical lines, yellow with vertical lines or white with vertical lines. I don't think there is anything specific that causes the crashes because at first I thought it was anti aliasing as i noticed I was running all my games on 4x aa but then that went out of the window when I ran BF3 on ultra high settings for the length of the campaign. then I realised razer game booster was launching with my games automatically and thought that might have been causing it, and to be fair I went a whole 2 days after I uninstalled it but then It happened again whilst playing Gotham city impostors.
Quick notes: I have only had the GPU about a month and a half.
I did a fresh install of windows 2 weeks ago so i don't think i need driver sweeper or anything.
I have not overclocked or touched any of the gpu's clocks at all.
And lastly I have monitored the cards temps and while gaming it maxes between 55-60 degrees max.
Honestly I am thinking of requesting a replacement on the warranty but I thought It would be best to ask some experts first. Please help!
