Few weeks ago my gpu started freezing randomly in games (Red Orchestra 2, starcraft 2).The screen will freeze for about 10 secs the turn black and return to game or desktop. I have tried uninstalling the drivers with driver sweeper and re-installing again. I have updated the BIOS. Checked for possible overheating, dust in the computer. But can't find out whats wrong :??:  I'm really confused because months ago it worked perfectly (bought it 7 months ago)

I'm currently using catalyst 13.4
ATI msi7770 (not overclocked)
I5 3570k 3,4GHz
8Gb ram
650 PSU
Z77A-G41 mb
Windows 7 ultimate 64

Any ideas on what else should i check??

What brand is the PSU?

You might have a faulty card, I'd get it RMA'd if I were you :)

Try to get a refund from the company that sold it to you. If they won't refund you, send it to MSI for them to repair or replace it (free of charge, except for postage).

i tried that, but doesnt change anything.

I've been testing with gpu temp and gpu-z and it seems that when it reaches 80-83 degrees it freezes. Any way thats kind of normall temperature for a gpu (90% load), isn't it???
