Hi guys
I've been having some issues with my graphics card ever since i bought it. After playing a while (the time varies and some days it doesn't happen at all) my GPU usage goes up to 99% as soon as any game is played. My FPS drops to around 25 (it's usually 60).
When I close the game the GPU usage drops to 5-6% as usual, but when I start the game again the problem is still there. Only a restart helps, but sometimes the problem comes back after just a few minutes.
I've tried using different drivers, and I am currently using the newest beta driver as suggested by Guild Wars 2.
My entire PC is brand new except my harddrives.
My specs are as follows:
GFX: MSI GTX560Ti Hawk
CPU: Intel i5-2500K @ 3.3 GHz
Motherboard: Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3
RAM: 8GB dual channel DDR-12800
PSU: CoolerMaster M60 600W
HDD: 7200 RPM Sata-300
Windows 7 x64
Driver version: 306.02
The graphics card comes factory overclocked to 950 MHz but reducing the frequency doesn't seem to have any effect.
I have seen other threads on the subject, but the sollution seems to be update drivers or something similar and that hasn't worked for me. Thanks in advance for your assistance!
