No overheating, power supply is perfect, ran diagnostics on every and i mean EVERY piece of hardware, everything is perfect until i start gaming. I just bought a GTX950SC (with acx single fan) and after installing it ive been getting black screens and have to manually restart the computer. Ive done a clean install of WINDOWS (10x64) as i had plenty of time because i wanted my new drivers STERILE forget clean (at the time I thought i was having issues with the old gpu (GT720 installed by cyberpower, turns out its structurally fine aside from being subpar) point being there are no video driver conflicts or anything like that lol. I tried reinstalling AGAIN after having a game crash to see if it would help the black screen. Of course it did nothing.
My temps are totally normal, about 60-65C after gaming a few hours and remain stable. Idle i dont even think was at 40 (39 maybe?) I do have that ACX2.0 cooling thing so im not freezing but I dont think i should be worried about my temperatures. im sure its not overheating, its just not the issue here
Also installed are 2 500 rpm case fans
Power supply is 500w
Motherboard is MSI, processor is AMD FX6300 stock, no overclock
Computer is from Cyberpower and is not even a year old, which is plugged into a surge protected power strip (to which i personally guarantee, is extremely stable)
Ive also got 8GB of DDR5, but my most graphics intensive game (heroes of the storm lol) dosent even hit 2gs of memory on ultra btw worth noting runs perfect on the 64 BIT CLIENT!(for anyone whose familiar) ....before it crashes
I play Heroes of the Storm, Diablo III, Dota2, and HoN mostly, these are not graphics intensive games,however at any graphic setting any game im playing, the display will crash, despite the fact that I could run the computer for days on end without issue. Must hold power button to shut it down afterwards
Could the card simply have incorrect voltage settings from the factory? I didn't overclock this card, I don't know if the voltage is high enough to maintain stability, all I know is +128 base +2 boost vs stock. I would assume this would require extra voltage. Just so nobody has to look it up, my card has the 6x2 (6 pin dual molex) that came with it, i think the stock EVGA is 3 pin (single molex? PCI-E?)
It seems strange to me that so many people should have issues like this and are told to resolve the issue by downclocking, where the voltage and limiter could easily be raised in precision for stability. I really would rather get some input before messing with any of this though, please let me know what you think!
Also, reading a few similar posts I encountered one where someone said 12mV increase caused his card to downclock where 6mV provided no stability for his overclock. Being that precision raises in increments of 6, should I be prepared to overclock it further?
