Hi all,
I recently built my own PC, and booted up BF4 to find it crashing with this error message:

I rebooted the game, same error message.
I changed my drivers, same error message.
I updated my bios, same error message.
I swore very loudly, same error message.

I reinstalled Windows 7 completely, formatted my SSD, etc. but to no avail, BF4 still crashes to desktop (except w/o the 'Display driver error', is that good news or bad news?)

My (basic) specs are:
CPU: i7 4770k
GPU: Evga GTX 780 Ti SC ACX
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB
PSU: Corsair AX760

I can provide more detailed specs if needed.

I've also noticed 80% of my games acting up as well. Red Orchestra 2 MP frequently freezes, The Sims 3 freezes, and Far Cry 3 repeatedly crashed as well.
Is this a serious problem with the GPU, and do I need to get it replaced? I've sunk so much money into this computer, I'm getting really worried.
Many thanks for any responses,
Phaydze

Imgur is currently overloaded.

Are you on the latest drivers?

And with all of the crashing, the newest driver might not be ideal for you; have you tried the previous WHQL driver? Or even one before that?

Quite possible that you also have a bad GPU, might need to RMA.
