Gtx 670 and bf3

[steven467]

So i've overclocked my gigabyte gtx 670, +159 core and +780 mem, or 1310 core and 7574 mem. Runs through heaven dx11 3.0 show no issues with 48.5 fps 1222 score. Runs pretty much every game fine; skyrim, batman, etc etc, no crashes. Though with bf3 i can play for 10 mins to an hour, pretty random, all ultra runs great, but at random it crashes to a black screen and i have to alt tab and end bf3.exe. It's weird it only happens with bf3. Previously had a gtx 560 ti and this never happened.

The exact same problem is discribed here: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf3/forum/threadview/2832654348025768742/2/#!/bf3/forum/threadview/2832654348025768742/1/

But with no resolve. Any ideas?

how about play in default CLock ? or did you try uninstalling the game completely with all its addons and deleting any left over files, restarting and then installing everything back again?

Defaults no fun......also it seems people are having this issue no matter the clock.

Maybe the overclock is not stable.

Set the memory clocks to default and nuke the core.

Did that as well, Runs heaven, crashes in bf3
