Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble with new graphics. I replaced my ATI HD 4670 with HD 7770. I have fairly old setup so I'm upgrading it slowly. I used driver fusion to remove old drivers and installed new ones from ati website. I ran burn in test and no problems occured, but when I start any video game (Borderlands 2, Assassins Creed IV or FIFA 14 for example) I get stuck somewhere, like it freezes in menu, or before the gameplay loads. Splinter Cell for example loads and after some gameplay my PC went off. I run 64 bit win 7 and this is my setup:

AMD Athlon 64 X2, 2500 MHz 4800+
Asus M2N-SLI (Chipset
nVIDIA nForce 560 SLI)
4 GB RAM
500 W

Game overheating? It worked fine with HD 4670. I tried same low settings on Splinter Cell and with new card it doesn't work. CPU temperatures are fine. Maybe graphic card overheating? On burn in test max temp was 68C.
