Ive recently (near) completed a new PC build. Ive gotten a successful POST and installed the drivers, but when i start doing anything graphically intensive, my screen freezes, and if i was doing something with sound Ill be able to hear that for a minute or two after the screen goes blank. Without the graphics card i havent had this computer lock up before.
Here are some details on my build:
MB: ASUS Sabertooth Z77 (LGA 1155 socket)
cpu: i7 2700k
graphics card: asus radeon hd 7770-2GD5
im running windows 7 ultimate x64 off of a sandisk ssd also. other details available upon request (bc im on mobile and they currently escape me)
ive been discussing this with a friend and he wondered if maybe the graphics card was incompatible with my motherboard but i dont think thats the issue as this mb has a pci-e 3 slot where ive been seating the graphixs card
