Game Crash Sapphire Radeon HD6950
CornWood66
Dear reader,
I have a problem with my card. Everytime when I play a game it runs fine for like 10 - 15 minutes, but then the game crashes and I get a Windows Error Report. So I click close and start the game again, but the game doesn't start and showing me strange colours. When I restart my system, the problem seems to be solved, but when playing a game again, I get the same story again. I've been struggeling with this problem for days now, looking on the internet, but found nothing what could help me. I really hope that one of you guys knows to sollution to my problem.

Do n't forget the CPU temperature-Realtemp or Speedfan will help there.
By the time you've powered down and rebooted the temperatures will have dropped considerably, so if you're not already doing so use GPU-Z or Afterburner for checking the GPU temperatures because they can log them so you'll have a record of those readings to consult after the crash. -

I don't think it's the temperature. It only happens when I play some games like Bioshock or Sleeping Dogs. The other games run fine. So I don't it's the temperature. I can still use my pc after the game crash, but with colours and black screens when opening programs. After I restart my pc, the problem seems to be fixed, but when I play that game again, it happens again... -
You should try updating your motherboard drivers.
Have you tried switching PCI-E slot, if you have more than one available?
I'd suggest getting all the usual windows updates you can as well, especially the .net framework ones, if there are any.
It could also be a faulty gpu or motherboard, the first one being the most likely. -

I already fixed the problem by returning the card to the store. They ran some tests en checked the card for possible damage. It turned out the chip was burned and that's why the GPU crashed allot. They gave me a replacement and everything is running fine now. Thanks for your reply though.
