GTX 1070 - Graphics Missing , Purple Textures / Stretched Textures


So recently today, i was in the middle of a game of Overwatch, When suddenly, All the textures starting playing up, Block textures, stretched, Purple lines appearing all over the place, it was unplayable.

So i did some digging to find out what was up, Turns out its not just Overwatch, Nearly all my games i have tested are doing it, and some games are not even launching, just giving me Errors.

Here are the things i tested so far :
- Updated my graphics driver to the latest
- Tried a different Resolution and screen Refresh rate. (from 75-60)
- And some heavy hours of research on the internet for examples of this occuring for others and i cant find any.

I'm hoping its not damaged my GPU, as some games run with no issues, for example Rocket league i get no issues, but after Overwatch, i tested, Diablo 3, WoW, Planet Coasters and they are all doing it.

I'm finding it near impossible to get a screenshot as the purple/blue flashing textures appear so quick and disappear cant grab it.

In this image you can see that on the left there is a difference in textures.

So i did some more digging and ran a FurMark test, here are the results:

Also ran Heaven benchmark 4.0 - a lot of textures were flashing blue when getting close up, from a distance they seemed fine.

is the video card new? did you use DDU http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html to completely uninstall previous graphics drivers?

Will state it is a new OS , recently installed a fresh version, so there shouldn't be any old drivers, just an FYI

Did you overclock it?

Try disabling GPU-boost or disabling any overclocking if you applied any.

This can be resolved now, Increased the voltage usage on my GPU and that seems to have resolved it, seems to be a known issue with the gtx 1070 GDDR5 micron type memory.

Not sure how to mark this as complete

Scrap that came back turns out the graphics card is buggered. windows itself was not rendering, games wouldnt load, tested in a different machine same issue. taking it back to the vendor "inno3d"
