Hey everyone,
I have a GeForce GTX 560 Ti, and get occasional blue screens, and graphic glitches in games (not too frequently, but I see it once in a while).
The blue screen mentioned memory, so I thought at first that it was being caused by my ram, so I did a ram check (I did the full scan) but it was clear. Because of the occasional graphic issues in games, I'm assuming it's the graphics card. I don't know if it matters, but my google chrome pages need to be reloaded once in a while with the "Aw snap" crash. Shockwave plugins also crash occasionally.
Is there any way to test the graphics card for issues like with the ram? I'm not very good with computers, but know a bit to make my way around, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
PS. I was going to post my blue screen mini dump and dxdiag file as further help, but haven't seen how to do that yet. Will add if I figure this out though!
---- UPDATE ----
Sorry for the delay, I have 4 ram sticks, and was testing in different combinations. Two of them seem faulty. Would this seem like a reason for the graphics glitches I'd get here and there? Also, my power supply is the OCZ-Z850M. I've had the 560 Ti for about 2 years (Maybe 3). Is there a way to test the graphics card to make sure it's okay?
Thanks!!
