Greetings from Germany
Ever since I bought my new GPU (Radeon HD 7850 - Club3D RoyalKing Edition), which was around 6 months ago, I get the occasional BlueScreen.
It happens every 2~5 Days on random events. Either when I am playing Games (no matter how graphically demanding they are) on desktop or while watching YouTube... Some Days I can play Borderlands 2 or BF3 for hours and nothing happens, and on the other day my computer BSOD's after 5 minutes of Minecraft.
One thing though, it seems to crash after about 1-2 hours of SimCity 5 (so one way to reproduce the BSOD)
What I have tried so far:
Reinstalling Windows (multiple sources/versions)
Reinstalling the graphics driver / rolling back to the one that came with my gpu / rolling back to extremely old ones
Turned hardware acceleration off
What I have not tried:
Using another GPU , 1. since it is new (can't believe they sold me a broken one) , 2. because I have no spare GPU and noone I know can (or will) borrow me one
testing the memory DIMMS's , since they worked fine with my old gpu (which was a GT 9800) and they are quite difficult to get to, since I have never heard of cable management.
My Computer specs:
Windows 7 , fully updated
AMD Phenom II x4 965 BE , not overclocked and watercooled
8 gigs RAM, 2 Kingston and 2 Corsair DIMM's
Asus m4n98td EVO
Radeon HD 7850 Club3D Royalking Edition , UC'd to reference clocks
700 Watts CSP-D700CB (Club3D PSU)
One single 160GB HDD, as well as 2 DVD drives
As far as periphery goes -
Two Screens, one 23' 1080p and one 17' 1440*900 res screen. Tried disonnecting the lower res one, didnt help.
One USB keyboard, one USB mouse, one USB mic and one wireless XBOX-controler to pc adapter
here is a .7z with the 3 latest minidumps, a CPU-Z report and some misc. usefull reports.
I hope you folks here can help me...
