Hello!
I bought a video card about 5 months ago. At the start the GPU worked flawlessly. I played games like Diablo 3, Crysis 2 and Skyrim without any problems.
After about 1 month ago the graphic card started to behave strangely. After about 5-10 minutes in different games, the computer crashed due to "high" temperature. One thing I noticed was that in a few games nothing happened with the temps, it was completely normal.
In BF3, Skyrim, WoW and Diablo 3, the graphic card ran normal around 50 degrees.
In Saints row 3 and Age of empires it flew up to about 70 degrees and the computer died instantly.
I run MSI Afterburner. Never overclocked card.
However, I fixed the problem when I increased the voltage on the GPU from 1025 to 1063, games ran on 50-55 degrees.
Today I got the same problem again, but only in certain games. In Skyrim it flies up into 70 degrees, and the computer dies. In Diablo 3 and WoW the GPU works fine, 50-52 degrees.
Another thing that is odd, is that the fans on the card never goes over 50-55% on MSI Afterburner (Auto), even though the card is at 68-70 degrees. Tested raise the volt to about 1075, but unfortunately it does nothing.
Tried installing different video card drivers but it does not help.
Running FurMark at 100% GPU usage puts it at 65 degrees, no crash.
It says that the card can run up to like 80-85, but it dies instantly at 70-71.
