GTX 560 Ti Blue Screen of Death

I recently bought a GTX 560 Ti and I have installed the most recent drivers.
Still whenever I play a "heavy" game such as Skyrim, MW3, etc... a blue screen tends to appear within the first 5 minutes of gaming. A lot of people blame the PSU but mine is a NOX URANO 600W. Since the minimum requirements for the graphics card are 500W I don't belive the problem is due to the PSU, still I do consider it. Any help would be appreciated.

Please don't multipost.

All power connectors connected properly? Extra 6-pin x2 inserted?

If you're talking about 6-pin connector with an extra 2-pin, the 560 Ti has two such headers and both should be connected.

Are these what you mean?

and the one I was talking about was this

ok. anything else should be connected?

It looks the same but one says PCI and the other one says SLI

even with both of the PCI and SLI pins connected I sill get blue screen

PSU. I can't get a picture of it but it is a 4 pin blue cable. There are two of the the PC one which is connected and de CP on which is not. Both of the cables come from the same "main" cable

Umm, those look like the CPU power cables! Plug them in, there must be either an 8-pin (then plug both) or a 4-pin (then only one will fit) header somewhere next to the CPU (on the motherboard).

What's a PC plug? How many pins? What colour are the wires on it?

Okay, I'm starting to get confused. Let's list all the important plugs:

1) ATX power - the wide 20-pin plug with an additional 4-pin next to it, must go in the same slot if there're 24 pins, if there're 20, leave the extra 4-pin hanging

2) Graphics card power - 2 6-pins that I linked earlier, you said you connected them

3) CPU power - must get one of the blue 4-pin ones in there, only one of them will fit due to the geometry of the plug.

You STILL get blue screens?! Can you take a pic of your build and post it here, maybe check for some other cable issues...

Hell, maybe it IS the PSU... still unlikely, though. What about your RAM? Try cleaning it (use soft eraser on the contacts).

I recently bought a GTX 560 Ti and when I play games I get blues screen in the first 2 minutes of gaming. A lot of people blame the PSU but mine is a capable NOX URANO 600W. Please help.

Yes I did. The SLI one and the PCI one as well. Thank you for your help. And happy Newton's aniversary

Thank's for the info. Still I'm pretty sure my PSU does not have two of those..

Power Supply Unit

You need to read the label more carefully
12V1 = 21a
12V2 = 22a
Combined output = 456 watts ( 38 amps ) , should still be enough

Sure does, I looked it up.

From what I have seen is Asus there isn't. They say
Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for contacting ASUS Customer Service.
We don't have such newer BIOS for this model. For your request, I have passed it to the relevant personnel.
Please wait patiently. If we get any update, we will release it in our website.
I don't know what else to do. I guess monday I'll contact the guys from which I bought the graphics card. I hear a lot of people complaining about this. I don't know why would they release an unstable graphics card. Any other ideas occur to you?
