Hey guys this forum is the best when it comes to asking for help, so I'm back here again.
I made a thread months ago, about my horrible decision to get a gaming computer from HP.
I can't help that my family is brand loyal, but that is not the point here.
That old thread, consisted the errors I was having with my new GPU being in the computer.
Well, eventually, I just sent in the whole build to HP, they put a band-aid on it, and now months later, I am having the same exact issues. I want to know what I can do to fix these problems with the tighest budget I can, without sending it back to HP, even though I have a warranty with them, because I am positive, it will just go back to screwing up again, and I don't want to have to go through another 3 hard drive restores from them thinking that will fix it as I can't simply back up 2 TB of data.
My GPU is a EVGA Nvidia GTX 670 Superclocked 2 GB. This is the only part in my computer that did not originally come with my computer from HP.
My power supply is 650W, which from what I know is plenty to power my GPU.
If I do anything browsing the web, using skype, or just sitting there doing absolutely nothing, my GPU will pick a time to just crash consecutively 10-15 times in a row, I get BSODs, I get crazy pixels on my screen, and more, ESPECIALLY if I run a game. The BSOD errors I get have all only just given the solution to "Update my drivers", or that "It's maximizing my gpu's resources"
Funny thing about that is, I thought a $400 GPU could play a youtube video, or could sit there on the desktop screen properly.
It's not a virus either, from what I know anyways, I've done 3 full hard drive scans, and the only thing I have found is a couple of bad cookies, so if it is, it must be hiding extremely well.
What I am thinking is, is that it is a hardware issue. Not my GPU though, I feel like something else may be causing it to act up like that, such as the HP china made motherboard, or maybe even the HP version of windows, which I know is not hardware.
My GPU is brand new, as I assumed it "faulty" in the past, and EVGA sent me a brand new one free of charge, and it's not even half a year old.
What do you guys think I should do to fix these issues, because honestly, I can't stand it anymore, and I do not know what else to do.
I have one example of the "bad pixels" That occurs on my screen.
The rest of the crashes I occur you guys would know exactly what they are, as it's just a million times of me losing input for a second, typically 2-10 times in a row, with a million boxes popping up saying my nvidia drivers have crashed, and the other one is just BSODs with video related errors, such as video_scheduler or video_tdr.
Thanks for any replies!
