Hi, I build a pc over a month ago and it has been working great, but last night I got a black screen in the middle of playing battlefield, It stopped after 10 seconds then happened again 30 minutes later, I got windows notifications saying my 770 had stopped working, I reinstalled my drivers and now when I launch a game it uses the graphics in my intel i5 4670, I've heard about driver wipes or incorrect driver installs and maybe it is those, I really would like to get my graphics card working, it had worked great for about a month.

The why did you say "GPU - Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 2GB OC Edition "?

Not that it makes any difference. If your integrated graphics are working and you got the latest nVidia drivers and the 780 doesn't work. Then it's most likely the card (unless you've done something weird).

You could test that by trying another card in your pc (to test your pc) and by testing the card in another pc (to test the card).

But if you can't the logical choice is to rma it.

I had the Asus GTX770-DC2OC-2GD5 and it died the same way. I had to rma it. But to my dismay they notified me that they didn't have a replacement for the 770. But I wasn't to upset due to them asking me if I want to wait till they got another 770 or to upgraded to an Asus GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5. I wasn't a fool and grabbed they 780. That was months ago and it's been running now like a good running clock ever since.
