So these are the only things I really use my computer for (gaming and netflix) and just 1 sentence behind what your thinking, hence my issue in not getting this fixed! lol
Okay so my machine until yesterday was stable as can be, hadnt had a blue screen since i had built it. So I decided to try and OC the video card a bit. Through trial and error a bit of reading on line, I got the video card stable (7950 at 1100/1350 1.135 volts i think,) I was running awesome FPS with acceptable temps. Then all the success went to my brain. Once satisfied with the video card torture, I decided I think in this order, Do a BIOS Clock of my CPU, and then update the BIOS?
Im not sure of the order, but thats when my gaming went upside down. badly, black screens, blue screens, really slow loading like 3x - 4x as long as before, tons of freezing.
What I did:
Uninstalled the latest BIOS update for my ASROCK Extreme 6
No issues doing so, no luck Currently running last stable version.
Uninstalled and re-installed all AMD Catalyst Programs and Latest Drivers x2
Re-installed once and it failed when doing the "screen flicker" during install, black screen, rebooted on its own.
Uninstalled ASUS GPU TWEAK, this is what I had been using to get the GPU profile the way that I wanted.
I read a ton of shit in the 8 hours i was looking at this yesterday, I adjusted all power settings to make sure there were no sleep issues and my pc had what it needed during the gaming etc. And a couple other things i cant think of im sure.
Only Good things:
I was able to 3 out of 15-20 something attempts to get ARMA 3 to load and In the game, to what looked like a very stable gaming exp, 2x this occurred after adjusting the power stuff. Im hoping this is a sign my GPU is okay
No temp issues that I have seen, when things started to get hot on the GPU clocking I stopped everything and adjusted the settings, as instructed.
Any help you can previde, awesome! Let me know what you need!
