I posted yesterday, but needed a second opinion. I just made my first build (woohoo!) and the only used part was the GPU from a friend (he got it from his friend.) It is a Radeon 6570. When I first booted up the computer to the desktop, every 2 minutes I got driver display issues. The intervals started getting shorter to the point where if I have the desktop up for a minute, it restarts. Now, I can go into the BIOS and move around that fine with no issues. My CPU is functional, it is a AMD Athlon II X4 760k. It does not have video as well in the CPU... does this mean my GPU is overheating? I already ordered the 7770 and I know that is 100x better, but I just need to know if there is any other problems. Thanks!

It could simply be that the GPU is broken, display driver issues are often because of failing Vram. You will know for sure when you get the 7770.

Ok great. Yeah, being it's from a friend who got it from a friend,it was bound to have issues! anyways, I'm pretty sure it will work as everything has been functioning properly otherwise.
