So i built a gaming pc about 2 years ago. I put in it a GTX 295. Every other part was top notch including the power supply. However i have had to rma the video card 2 times and now soon maybe a 3rd. But i am not sure if it's the video card anymore. What was happening was the card would run cool at first but as months went by the card would heat up and then would idle at 80c. I figured the card just went bad. maybe junkie thermal paste or whatever. The pc would lock up while in games from time to time. Specific games not at all, not sure why. Company of heroes for example would never lock up. So even games that pushed the card wouldnt all cause a lock up or overheat. This last several months i have noticed alot of nvidia driver failures, A good many while not even gaming, just surfing the web or whatever. Evga doesnt think it's the card. And pc power and cooling tells me that the 12 volt rail is fine at 11.5 volts. So what is it then. I have reinstalled the os several times. Every drivers and piece of software is always up to date. i have tried other versions of nvidia drivers. I have done it all. I am not sure what the issue is or how to fix it. I had believe i knew alot of pc's. But how do i know what part is not working right without any clear cut answers. I had heard this issue could be caused from the PSU. But how is it i can find that out? I have no tech tools that could test the thing out.
