Alright, this thread is probably going to be long, but any and all help will be really appreciated.
So recently I decided to buy an EVGA GTX 750 ti SC off of eBay and put it in my pre-built system. The specs of said system are as follows;
Intel i5-4460S at 2.9GHz
GTX 750 ti SC
Unknown motherboard, based on ASUS H81M
Unknown power supply, 350w
8 GB 1600MHz RAM
VGA only Samsung S22D300 monitor
1TB HDD
Windows 10 64 bit
So, I plugged the GPU into my one PCIe slot and fired up my PC. After installing all of the drivers, I decided to give my games a go. Unfortunately, when I try to play games it will randomly freeze with several visual artifacts on screen. As seen below;
Also, sometimes loud screeching noises and flashing colors will occur with the artifacts, but I have yet to catch an image of them, if I do I will put them on the thread. When the PC crashes (if it does) I either get a BSoD saying I got a "VIDEO_SCHEDULER_INTERNAL_ERROR" or the whole PC just crashes. This usually happens when I am playing a game and usually happens very early on, but it has happened to have a full on crash when just in Google Chrome and has also had non-fatal artifacts appear just while doing tasks on my PC.
I have tried several things in order to try to fix the issue. I re-downloaded all of my drivers twice, changed drivers, checked the card in the system (which says it is okay), tried to go into power saving mode, uninstalled all of my previous card's drivers (it was a r7 240), tried Windows troubleshooting, scanned for viruses, removing and re-inserting the graphics card itself, and none of this seems to have done anything.
So, does anyone know what the problem might be? Is my weird motherboard the problem? Is it my awful PSU? Is it a hardware incompatibility between the GPU and parts of the system? Is it just a borderline useless card because I bought it on eBay? If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. If anyone actually finished reading this, thanks for you time. Hopefully, I can get this issue resolved soon.
