Hi guys,
So Im not sure if I could explain it properly but I’ll try to explain in details. Sooo yeah, my 760 died out of nowhere recently and I tried to find what was the problem. I tried reseating the card, using DDU and sorts and nothing worked. So I thought of testing it on my friend’s rig and I was relieved it’s still alive. I installed it back to my pc and it ran smoothly. Although I had some issues on the way. There was an instance the pc got a BSOD 116 when I tried to run Dishonored, and also the screen went black and the monitor received no signal so I did was remove the DVI cord then plugged it back and it worked again. The next day in the morning, the pc didn’t boot up with display, reseating fixed it though. It’s hard to tell if (maybe) the motherboard is the cause of the problem(s), or electrical stuff or something else.

Specs:
MSI G41-Z87 PC MATE
I5-4670k (stock clock)
Corsair Vengeance 16gb DDR3

They are plugged properly and I use the direct cables too. Although it's kinda weird that I'm not experiencing any problems at the moment, I played a few games in Insurgency and CSGO with no problems at all, also Dishonored is running fine now. I might run some tests on what's the real cause but thanks for the help though 😀
