Having just spent £130 on an Inno3D GeForce 9800GTX+ (512MB OC DDR3 PCI-E), and having finally managed to squeeze this beast into an Antec 900 case, I am finding that my computer will freeze up randomly while using the card (ie. playing games, watching movies..).
The computer freezes (usually with a lot of graphics corruption) and will not respond, needing a hard reset. This happens unpredictably.
The GTX+ has ONE 6-PIN Molex power input which is plugged in (I have used two 4-pin - to - one 6-pin adapter supplied with the card).
I have tried switching from one PCI-E slot to the other (My ASUS P5K/EPU has two).
I have tried using the Nvidia performance monitoring software to watch the GPU temp (which, after two ours of Supreme Commander never went above 40c).
I am currently using the latest 180.48 NVIDIA drivers (these seem to be the only ones that my card supports).
I have tried using less power by disconnecting extraneous fans and such (I have a 500W PSU available at http://www.ebuyer.com/product/124922).
I have tried rolling back back to SP2.
Please help me!
