Greetings everyone who tries to help me!
I have a homebuilt PC for 1,5 years.
I bought a second-hand GPU from a previous CrossFire chain, a Sapphire 7950 with boost, Dual-X edition. Its fans are not the genuine ones, so it runs at 80-85 Celsius degrees.
Before the 7950 I had a 7850 from Sapphire, also Dual-X edition. It was perfect but I wanted something more powerful.
My PC specs are:
fx-8320
asrock 970 pro3 r2.0
4 gigs of kingmax ddr3-1600
the previously mentioned 7950
and windows 8.1 64 bit with its updates
everithing is going on their stock core clocks
I found out something. I underclocked the GPU to 850 MHz, because the power limit cannot be raised beccause it ran extremely hot that way (because of the budget fans on the gpu), so I left the power limit on 0% and underclocked the gpu. it has partly solved my problem so it didn't die this much on a day. but it still does this problem
Temps: cpu is cool, but the GPU goes on 80-85 Degrees.
It sometimes happens after 20 mins of gaming(FC4, Lichdom, AC:unity) but the day before yesterday I was able to game 5 hours of FC4 in a row.
My deaths look like:
link1
link 2
link3
These happens with 14.4 driver of Catalyst, but I had fully black screens too.
With the 14.12 Omega I had also these and fully black screen.
Memtest86 says everything's OK.
