Just bought a cheap refurbished Reference HD7870 Graphic Card 3 days ago.It worked out of the box ,installed drivers and played the new Witcher 3 game for 2 days(2-3 hrs a day).
Last night i turned on the PC , played the game for 15 minutes and got a freeze and a sound loop.Restarted the PC and it wont boot ; well it starts , the POST appears , the Windows logo, after that the monitor gets green-ish ,and GPU fan goes idle.
Reinstalled the Windows , the same thing ,it works without the drivers but wont boot after the driver instalation. Tried with both Windows 8 and 7 and the same thing , the gpu fan spins but the monitor stay green tinted black.
Now i understand that buying refurbished components is not that fine but was my best option,So please don't judge that. The card worked fine for 2 days, without any problem and from nowhere this.
I also have a 990fx Extreme3 that i hate , it is posible that the videocard is too much for it ? I noticed that the NB is pretty hot while on my last card (XFX 7750) it was just warm.
Help me please ,tell me if you had the same issue and how you managed to solve it .Thanks
