What's up people,
I have had to deal with my 280X by MSI (Gaming OC @1020MHz) acting up recently.
To preface, as it has overheated in the past, I have recently disassembled the card to replace the thermal paste on it and completely dust it off.
Albeit running at temperatures within the ordinary, it is still acting up. It sometimes crashes when I'm only 5 minutes into csgo @60°C. However, the symptoms are the same as they have been in the past: I neither get a black screen or bluescreen but a coloured one (mostly green or blue but I can tell it's not a bluescreen) with vertical stripes on it.
Here's my specs:
GPU:AMD 280X Gaming OC by MSI running @1020MHz
PSU: BeQuiet System Power 7 500W (Silver 80+)
CPU: Intel Xeon 1230v3
Mobo: Asrock H87 Pro4 (1150 Socket)
5 Case fans, each one of them illuminated (3 Xilence ones, 1 Cooltek and the other one I can't tell right now)
On a final note, this problem seems very peculiar to me but it may just as well be the card suffering from the damage it has sustained.
Looking forward to your responses and help
I have had to deal with my 280X by MSI (Gaming OC @1020MHz) acting up recently.
To preface, as it has overheated in the past, I have recently disassembled the card to replace the thermal paste on it and completely dust it off.
Now the card is running at smooth temperatures, as in it does not exceed the 75°C mark, which I think is okay for card in use for over 2 years. Furthermore, I have upped my case cooling game with 2 case fans sucking power in at the front and 3 cards, that being 2 on the top and 1 at the back, venting (hot) air out of the case.
