Hey everyone, I really need advice! This is my first post, I'll try to keep it short and to the point. I purchased a USED Zotac gtx 770. It was working great for a couple weeks, I thought I made a good buy. Then I got the bright idea to download the Nvidia beta drivers (326.19). It seemed to improve my frames in a couple games by utilizing the GPU to its full potential (before it rarely got to 99% and I was having frame drops). But then in the middle of a BF3 sesh, the card malfunctioned. To try and describe it- On top of the graphics, there were thousands of little vertical equal signs (=) They move around with what image the card is producing. Now everything I do that uses the card has the little lines EVERYWHERE. I tried clearing the drivers and installing 320.49. No luck. I even wiped windows 7 and did a fresh install. No luck. I popped in my ol' GTX 460 and everything was fine. Clearly the card is at fault. Of course I didn't realize the Zotac didn't come with a warranty, So I'm stuck with it. Is there anything I can do to fix it? Or am I SOL and should sell it for parts? Any suggestions are appreciated guys! Thanks.
