Hello, I've been trying to fix this problem for quite a while, after building this PC I started to have very problematic issues specifically when playing games, it seems that when the GPU has to render visuals it starts to fail, causing one of the following:
- Freezes: the screen either blacks out or freezes, with some games, it fixes itself by re-rendering absolutely everything on screen again, with other games, I have to minimize the game then maximize so it can re-render the visuals again. (This happens with PayDay 2, Killing Floor, Terraria, Thumper, etc)
- Crashes: games completely crash, sometimes it takes longer to crash (1-10 min), sometimes it does just as the game loads (DotA 2, DOOM, Half Life 1, Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Shadow Warrior (Sometimes runs fine, but absolutely random))
In most of the freeze scenarios one of these messages appear "Nvidia Display driver stopped working and has recovered" or "-Appnames- access to graphic hardware was blocked" as a pop up window.
Checks I did:
- MemTest86 to check the RAM memory.
- FurMak to stress test the GPU (Crashes after some time).
- HeavyLoad to stress test the CPU/GPU (CPU tests worked fine, GPU tests would suddenly stop showing display)
- CrystalDisk to check the SSD and HDD I use.
- Checked all temperatures and they were fine.
- Voltage values in the PSU were fine.
- Updated the BIOS to the latest build.
- Swapping PCI ports to see if the PCI port was faulty.
- Swapping RAM stick to another slot to check if it was faulty.
- Using 2 different GPU's to check for any differences in my machine.
- Using a different PSU.
Fixes I tried to do following things I read in the internet:
- Disabling PCI Express energy optimization.
- Setting Max performance on NVidia power management panel.
- Disabling VSync on NVidia graphics panel.
- Creating a TdrDelay value on Regedit.
- DDU then a clean reinstall of the latest drivers.
- DDU then a install of an old driver.
- Changing from Windows 10 to Windows 8.1.
- Reducing memory usage through Msiafterburner.
I'm very stressed since I still can't understand the situation and I don't know what to do. After all these fixes all I did was making some games more stable but the issues still keep going.
