Hey guys,
so I have this problem... My GPU is a MSI 660Ti PE but I have been having the worst problems and I am starting to think it's not just the Drivers but the card also. My GPU will sometimes cause my entire pc to restart ect. That was until I started manually adjusting the fan speed to 100% before gaming... If I don't do this some of my games will have terrible lag in the main menu. Not even in the game yet...
OS - Win 8.1 (I regret upgrading from 8 to 8.1 but I had to as this problem was way worse b4 I did that)
CPU: Intel i7 3770k
32GB RAM (I know it's overkill but I do allot of things at once ... or at least I use to, wish I could again)
Another thing my pc does and I am not sure if it is related or not is my pc will stop responding (the game) this doesn't happen everyday but let's say every 2-3 days. I then press Win-key it takes me to windows 8.1 dashboard but I can't use my mouse there, so I alt tab and see all the windows but the moment I pick another window (other than the black screen from the non responsive game) it stays on that screen. I then alt, ctrl, del, try and use task manager ...same thing. Alt F4 also doesn't close it. I am then forced to hard reset... Worst part is I can see my pc working in the background.... I can see my steam chat working, my task manager (I can only see while I alt tab, otherwise it stays on the black screen) so I only see for like a split second.
TO get back to my main issue it use to say something about kernel drivers failing b4 I started to up the fan speed to 100%...
What do you guys recommend? I am planning on getting a new gpu next year but that is a long time away, with all these Nvidia errors not sure I want a 800 series tbh, you guys have no idea what grief this issue has caused. Countless hours of problems, there were days when I had no pc when I needed one.
Thanks for reading I look forward to your feedback guys
