I built a Gaming PC and got this Palit GTX 960 OC edition yesterday, after I installed every driver I need, I decided to play some games. I was playing Arma II, for about 40 minutes and suddenly my PC crashes and restarted itself. After the restart, my NVidia Control Panel is gone and my Graphic Card showing error 43 in the device manager, and DxDiag showing n/a in the Display tab. Tried to re-install Windows, drivers and even re-seating the graphic card, but none of them works.
So, is my Graphic Card defected?
 
Solution
Symptoms of Graphics Cards being defective:
- crashing or freezing
- if you see artifacts on your screen
- your GPU is not recognized by your PC

I recommend that you RMA it.
