Artifacts on radeon 5850

[kilzer15]

I pressed the auto-tune button on the ati overdrive and my my computer kept crashing. Even after I pressed the defaults button I noticed it would still crash while running 3d games. Am I suppose to do something else?

What's your power supply? Temperatures?

Have you tried re-install the driver for your HD5850?
Like shadow said above, what is your PSU and your card temps?

Sorry I should have been a little less vague. Power supply ultra x4 750 watt and the card temps get to about 75 degrees before crashing occurs(not even running games at max). When i lower settings it takes longer to crash but it still will. Reinstalled drivers using driver sweep and it is still occuring.

I'd go out on a leg and say it's a faulty card. Your PSU which has 60a on it's +12v seems very efficient, and your temps are perfectly normal.

That was my initial thought. Thanks for the confirmation. I am waiting for and rma number form xfx but atleast I have my on-board radeon 3300 to play with while its gone.
