Hi there
Ever since I put this card in my new box (specs listed below) I've had issues with certain games crashing my entire system when I run them for no more than like 5 or 10 minutes. When I play Bioshock (which runs beautifully in max settings) I get about 5 minutes in and all of a sudden it freezes abd U see a whole bunch of red lines and my system completely locks up. I have to reboot my system to get anything back. At first I thought there was a coolibng issue, then I determined that my PSU was not powerful enogh for this card so I got a newer unit (also listed below in my sig) but the problem was still there. I'm in the process of getting an RMA on the card but I was wondering, with the issue I've had, when I get a replacement card that works, will everything run as it should with these specs?
I think the card had shader issues which made it crash all the time but I could be wrong.
Also, I don't know if these are related but maybe I could get some help on this issue I posted.
