Hey! My new Skylake system is freezing. Like it stops to 1 frame and no sound at background. This happens at games and idle. I have allready tested ram with memtest86+ and using 1 ram at time. Any suggestions to what to do? And yeah. I have tested a another psu too. The psu isnt the problem

Hi, Have you experienced the issue right after installing Windows?

Yes. I have tried to not install any drivers. Just installed gpu drivers and games what i want to play. Problem still exists. I have tried windows 7 too. Nothing new happens

If removing the card and using the onboard, is it the same?

No freezing yet. Have played now 20-30mins

Now try installing the card in different PCIe slot and test again.

so your saying that i use 8x instead of 16x lane?

It's x16 too, but it doesn't matter. Just for testing, to see if it's a card issue or different (motherboard/CPU).

No freezing/singal error when altabbing form the game and back... This is interesting. 😱

 

[alexoiu]

With card installed?

With card installed?

that gtx 770, but when restarting. I have to restart system multiple times to make it boot to windows

Can you test different graphics card (borrowing one)?

The card might not be properly inserted in the slot.

What are your system/CPU temps? Any chance the watercooling isn't working right? Are you planning on OCing this down the road? My first guess is something with RAM timing/compatibility. Have you tried loading BIOS defaults or any built in profiles for balanced/power (Not familiar with that motherboard but most have several "easy mode" setups from conservative to aggressive for RAM/CPU/voltages.

cpu isnt oc and its about 45c on load. gpu is about 75c on load, but i think that i figured this out allready. I disabled asus protection on bios. Everything seems now work really well

 

[PeliManne]

Asus Anti surge, that one i disabled

[PeliManne]

Ok, problem still exists. I get Aplication popup 56 error when system freezes

 

[PeliManne]

Ok, This doestn happen at safe mode.. Could i say that this is Driver error?

 

[alexoiu]

Either a driver or a card one.
