    [SOLVED] Display Driver for brand new graphics card causing games to crash

    I was correct in getting a new card. The problem stopped once I installed a different 3070 I ordered. The card I had was faulty. Those who are suffering from this issue, and have gone through all the same procedures and nothing worked, take note that it very well could be a faulty card like it...

    [SOLVED] Display Driver for brand new graphics card causing games to crash

    Reviving this thread to update info, for those unfortunate enough to be in my position as well. I reinstalled windows, reinstalled the drivers a million times over again. On a fresh install of windows and after multiple tests for my other components, the games still crashed, leaving behind...

    [SOLVED] Display Driver for brand new graphics card causing games to crash

    turns out i was very wrong. Playing Cyberpunk 2077 I was monitoring the specs, and apparently around the time the game inevitably crashed again, my CPU was hitting 90 celsius in max temperatures under full load. Could that be a cause of my issues?

    [SOLVED] Display Driver for brand new graphics card causing games to crash

    I have monitored temps, CPU never goes above 70 C and GPU never goes above 68 C no blue screens of death and I guess I could give the gpu-z method a try, see what comes up

    [SOLVED] Display Driver for brand new graphics card causing games to crash

    I noticed first with cyberpunk, but basically my display drivers, I assume associated with my graphics card, which is brand new along with the rest of the PC I'm using now, is causing games, at random periods of time, to crash. I can see that it is the display drivers causing it using the...

    Question Hard pc / or game crash (audio hanging and looping) followed by a loss of signal from the monitor

    Took my pc to a shop, and it was there for 4 days going under constant stress tests. None of the crashes could be replicated, and so i was very suspicious of the setup i had at home. it could've been that my peripherals or drivers were causing some issues but i couldn't really feel certain in...

    Question Hard pc / or game crash (audio hanging and looping) followed by a loss of signal from the monitor

    Another update. Shut down pc and plugged it into the wall. Tried to replicate the crash but couldn't. Usually, I'm plugged into a backup battery surge protector. After an hour of playing the game and waiting for it to crash my pc, that didn't happen. Shut down pc and plugged it back into the...

Managed to quit to desktop before it froze, but this time i didn't lose signal to monitor and it was...

    Question Hard pc / or game crash (audio hanging and looping) followed by a loss of signal from the monitor

    definitely not the cable. Did another test with the pathfinder game, crashed as it did last time, at an arbitrary time, and i was disconnected from the discord call, implying that my whole windows and pc crashed in some way, but there was no bsod log, or any dmp file for that matter. With the...

    Question Hard pc / or game crash (audio hanging and looping) followed by a loss of signal from the monitor

    unfortunately this card was part of a prebuilt pc, so there is no warranty or return option for me. If it's this <Mod Edit> card dying, then it means i have to buy a whole ass card

    Question Hard pc / or game crash (audio hanging and looping) followed by a loss of signal from the monitor

    This is an issue I thought solved going by a previous post I did not long ago https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/strange-possibly-gpu-problems-not-entirely-sure.3713829/ The issue has gone as so, so far. I played the new pathfinder wrath of righteous game, and it runs fine, for the most...
