drivers are up to date, i havent reseated the card as said earlier, when slowing down clocks and voltage it goes away, with the monitor flicker coming into effect :D not sure if theres anything to do except change monitor, this is a tv monitor thats atleast 16 years old

another edit :D seems the moment i applied the different clocks and voltage (first time and after it reset) that the display appears to flicker at random every few minutes, and just later today a horizontal line of blue pixels has appeared on the monitor permanently so whatever i changed on the...

so it appears after bringing down the speed and voltage it doesnt happen, at one point it changed back to default settings for some reason and it happened again, but with the custom clocks and changes it seems to have stopped happening

G-Skill 4GBXL Ripjaws X 2x 4gb 78.AAGD0.9KD Apacer 2GB PC3-12800 DDR3-1600MHz 2x 2gb wow they really do start adding up, which is weird considering i havent really done changed/downloaded anything and it started happening what i dont understand, if at 14% usage at the rate of 740mb/s that...

even tough my memory total usage is 54% the remaining processes dont add up to 54% recently i started having ram issues, black screens followed by beeping (by windows i presume) games were very, very stuttery memory diagnostic said everything fine, and i did SFC repair in command prompt the...

thermaltake toughpower grand 750W CPU hovers around 60-68c GPU 83-85c (~78c after tuned edit*) at full load with Heavyload its also the GPU fans that go 100% when it happens slight little edit, ive decided to bring down the clocks and undervolt the card, i will post back if its fixed

Hi, 3 years ago i made the same post to the GPU subforum and didnt get a response, im going to try my luck again and potentially find a solution. I mostly boiled it down to either a GPU or a motherboard issue altough im still not sure Ive had this issue for around 3 years and mostly coped with...

Bit of a dumb question: Could it be my ram? i use dual channel memory 2 sticks of 4gb and 2 of 2gb (12gb) , they are preety old, could these by any chance be the trigger?

ive come to the conclusion that this is a Motherboard issue. soundcard , fans speeds etc. other forums have considered it a MB or PSU problem, in my case its the motherboard, 12+ year old asrock z68 pro3 motherboard. you may experience a simmilar issue.

Also, i may be slow in responding, i dont use toms hardware often.

As the title states. Ive encountered this problem before while playing Warframe on highest settings, t elimenated the issue, but this time it happend while i was playing Gmod, i didint notice it was stressing my pc even tough Gmod normally doesnt cause my pc load 90% of the time. to give some...

these are some preety strong components, do you have many HDDs or SSDs? if its not powering im lead to think that it burned down and that is for the better to just buy a stronger PSU, are there any other sounds that resonate from the PSU aside the zap sound? If its a really heavy load game then...

that clicking sound may be the hard drive, if its not powered then it could be a problem. by clicking, does it sound more like crakling or boiling? if so the PSU is under too much load.

I would play it safe and go for the 850 watt PSU. 750 would probablly break down under the massive stress of the components, even more so if OCd

is it a new PSU? if its fan isint spinning this probablly means that the fan broke down over stress, like a power surge, this could happen on older PSUs since those probablly didint have any protection againts it. The PSU fan should spin all the time by what i remember.
