I just received my SuperClocked 970 today and I've been having loads of trouble with it. I have an FX-8150 and 10gigs of 1333mhz ram. All this is run on a 600w PSU. The PSU is in an HP build. It has 52 or 56 amps on 12v rails, so that's not the problem... the quality says its' "high effieicney". No 80+ anywhere. Says the manufacturer is Delta. The PC is also almost 3 years old.
However, upon replacing the previous HD 7770, the PC beeps 3 times with pausing in between right before the "Starting WIndows" screen appears. It loads up, but the beeps are worrying and I was right because I'm still having issues.
Here's the problem. I started up a game of TitanFall, and the screen went black halfway through a match and it crashed and a message at the bottom right said that the display driver was unresponsive. That was when I thought it was my PSU.
However, I ran BF3 and loaded the Thunder Run mission and it had no problems.
Loaded up TitanFall again and it crashed again, only this time I just pressed play and then it became unresponsive. Another time it actually shut my PC off without BSOD or anything.
When I booted back up, I logged into Windows and a message popped about the display driver failing again. I was just on the desktop! Only thing really open was Origin!
Trainz Simulator 2009 loaded and played without a hitch as well.
Civilization V comes up with a render error, with the failed driver message popping up once again.
Experimented and OC'd the GPU to core+150 and memory+260. Again, BF3 played without error where TitanFall failed at the Respawn logo screen.
Really confused about this one. I mean, it's 600w but it's also about 3 years old.
GPU drivers are 344.16
EDIT: BF3 now comes up with a message when starting the campaign menu. Stock clocks.
Just after updating this post, the message popped up AGAIN...
