MSI GTX 570 Fuzzy/Wavy lines during game play
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Hello,
First time poster, long time reader here! I wanted to present my issue to the community in hopes of solving the issue.
Background - I just built my first full rig a few weeks ago and finally installed a MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozor III after requesting a replacement 2 weeks ago. I get everything set up with old drivers removed and new drivers installed. At first everything seems fine, then when I begin gaming I get fuzzy/wavy lines across the screen.
I have tested this on multiple games and it is the same result. After several minutes out of a game the lines go away. It seems to happen when the cards are put to heavy work. I have been using my old MSI gtx 460 and have no issues with this card. Later today I do plan to test the 570 card in my old rig to check if it is an issue with the card.
I have tested the card with old drivers, current drivers, and beta drivers with the same effect. I have also tried different ports on my modular power supply as well and moved the card to different slots on the mobo - same effect.
I suspect it does have something to do with power, but I can't be sure. Any searches on the Internet or these forums have not helped.
Sorry for the lengthy post, I just wanted to be thorough. I appreciate any input. Thanks in advance!

I was thinking it could be damaged too, which is why I will test it out later today in my old rig. When I received my first MSI GTX 570, I had constant wavy/fuzzy lines, so I sent that back for a replacement. Now this is the second card and my wavy/fuzzy lines happen only while gaming.
I was hoping is was some oversight by my part, but I will send it back again for a replacement card if need be.

Sorry it took me a bit to get back on here, but I did test the card on another machine and I was getting the wavy/fuzzy lines. So I returned it for an exchange and I just installed the new card. Of course I am getting the same effect. I am not so sure it is the card anymore, unless they happened to send me the same exact card 3 times in a row.
