What kind of power supply do you have?

DonQuixoteMC · Feb 28, 2014

Judging by his signature, he has the Corsair TX850, and that's a darn fine power supply. However, it's always possible he got a lemon.

Install and run HWMonitor and check your temperatures.

RM750 Corsair

Don already checked with GPU-Z and its fine about 30c, im formatting right now but keep helping me

I also wanted to know about CPU temps.

I see you've done some overclocking, are you sure it's stable?

I'm not saying you're wrong, but what makes you think it's the GPU?

Do you have the latest drivers? Have you connected the appropriate power pins to the GPU?

GordimBurgueis · Mar 1, 2014

Sorry i updated my signature now its correct. Before Overclocking anything im trying to get my system to run stable.
Yesterday i formatted again, my steps were. Installed Windows 7 64, intalled all the drivers from cd, installed graphics driver 334.89 and it didnt work.

Solutions that im going to try now is, update everything on windows update and update all mobo drivers.

My cpu temp and gpu temps are fine

Do you have two seperate pci-e cables hooked up to it? It requires two 8-pin connectors from the PSU to the card. I had that same problem when I first built my rig

GordimBurgueis · Mar 2, 2014

Nothing till now, i switched to my other card gtx 580 and works fine with the same driver.
I use 1 cable that has 2 8pin attached to it

GordimBurgueis :

That's your issue. You need two seperate cables. I made the same mistake lol. Card is a beast and requires all the power in all the lands

GordimBurgueis · Mar 2, 2014

Strange i kinda remember trying that but i will try again for sure. Do you know if it has some order to to follow on the psu output cables or something like that?

Ps Why the hell those cables comes in double outputs.
Both lights are green on the card

venomreleaser · Mar 2, 2014

GordimBurgueis :

The cables should be 8 on both end plugged into the pci-e slots on the psu. I used the single ones that came with my ax760 instead of the double ones.

GordimBurgueis · Mar 2, 2014

Fck i didnt work, when i get home i will tell how i am connecting things

venomreleaser · Mar 2, 2014

GordimBurgueis :

It should look like this.

Ps I really need to clean my case window, and it's only a two weeks old!

GordimBurgueis · Mar 2, 2014

I have split cables like 4 8 pin connectors.

What i will try now.
I will mess around a little bit the cable positions and i will upload photos.
Second i have my old HX1050 that i will use only to power the gtx 780 ti.(Using 2 PSU at the same time)

Ps Now that i tested my old GTX 580 with only one cable with 2 ends, im starting to think that might be a PSU problem which is more convnient cause my gtx 780 ti work all the time with 1080 videos, youtube etc, only when the 3D comes active the game crashes. Probably if my VGA was bad it will not work at all

Pls stay with me in the process =D

GordimBurgueis · Mar 2, 2014

Ye its a graphic problem.
I just connected the HX1050 and its fine except the gpu tha continue to crash

venomreleaser · Mar 2, 2014

GordimBurgueis :

Are you using two seperate 8pin pcie cables to power it? I had the issue with restarts and crashes until I hooked it up with two seperate cables. And are all your drivers up to date?

GordimBurgueis · Mar 3, 2014

I dont know why really but i switched to the other slot and it worked.
But on my previous test my GTX 580 works fine on my supposed ''broken slot''

Deb_Pramanik · May 1, 2014

I also have the same problem & the connection between psu(Corsair RM850) & gtx780ti was on one PCIe cable followed the suggestion of connection by 2 separate PCIe cables but the problem stays actually the problem started when I was playing COD Ghost in ultra setting (UP-TO DATE DRIVER) & the power went off & the pc had sudden shutdown (NO UPS but have Home UPS Inverter) & the incident it crashes regularly when only & only I play high graphics game

Is this a because of the power cut incident or any other cause?
Is it a hardware or software problem?
my Rig:-
Motherboard- Asus Maximus VI hero
CPU- intel i7 4770k
Ram- Coisair Vengeance 16 GB(2*8gb)
PSU- RM 850
SSD- Samsung 840pro
Country-INDIA
State- WEST BENGAL

Deb_Pramanik :

What is your cooling setup like? I had a friend with a similar issue and it ended up being his cpu shutting down due to high heat.

It could also be a poor psu that isn't getting enough power but I run an ax760 and haven't had am issue since plugging in the second cable

I have the same problem, when I do the windows experience evaluation my pc crashes, and sometimes randomly, I have a PSU 850 Watt ATX, the GTX 780 Ti connected to the PCI express 2.0 X16 slot

Osrok · Sep 10, 2014

You should try this disable.exe. It can be found here;
I had weird freezin, a black screen and sound in the backroubd etc. But not when disable.exe is executed when windows starts.
It can be found here; http://kingpincooling.com/forum/showthread.php?t=2533

It also allows me to overclock higher, I have 1200/1850 stable clocks at original voltage.

I have Asus GTX 780 Ti DirectCU OC

Just to end it, it was a bad slot.
