Okay I figured it out. I had to uninstall "AMD settings" and revert to the old Catalyst Control Center to have access to this option: http://prntscr.com/fcnp6r Setting it to RGB 4:4:4 fixed everything.

Yes, everything set to native

How it looks like: https://goo.gl/photos/K4T66Rc5PfgcF7gM8 It goes purple then normal then purple, spending maybe 30 seconds to a minute and a half on each of these color states. I tried connecting to two different HDMI cables and the behaviour is the same on both of them. I've also tried...

it was the hard drive. tested pc for 24 hours no hangups.

I put another HDD into her PC so she'll use it that way for a few days see how it is. And she won't be using the bad HDD :)

Tried that too. System Idle Process is almost always the top process in terms of CPU usage

Okay so my sister's laptop gets incredibly slow after a while, and then it gets so slow that opening any program freezes it completely. You can move the mouse and click stuff but you can't do anything any more, open any programs etc. I checked the CPU temperatures while this happens - 67 C was...

I just kinda assumed you could open it in safe mode, now when I think about it, it might not be possible.

Okay, I'll give that a shot see how it goes

I would get the bronze certified powersupply that Fostez recommended. Also, you can get a 1600mhz RAM if you wanna save money. There is almost no diffference between 1600 and 1866 mhz RAM in games...

Oh sorry, English isn't my first language. I'll rename the thread to say warranty. The card is still under warranty, so the question is how to prove it's defective.

RMA the card. I have 7950 as well and it runs at 1250Mhz factory overclocked at 70 C max. Your card is most likely defective. p.s. Just to be sure you don't have HORRIBLE airflow issues, open up the side of your computer case and test your temperatures again. You will get the same values, but...

Try running in safe mode to check.

Might be a faulty GPU but you won't know for sure until you try. Go to BIOS and activate your CPU integrated graphics instead of AMD Radeon HD 6700. Try out the results in a few games. Games will be slow as hell because the integrated graphics suck, but you need to look for black smokes, purple...

It's a beast spec, well made. Just make sure 750w is enough for that sli next year. As for the monitor, you're not gonna get anything much cheaper worth buying if you're going for g-sync :)
