Sapphire Radeon HD 7700 Series

[Romanos]

Hello!

Lately my Sapphire Radeon HD 7700, started crashing! Sometimes with solid color screen or with color screen with stripes but always with looping sound. That problem came out nowhere, i didn't change anything or OC the GPU! The only thing that changed is the GPU drivers which i updated today, but the problem started way before the update.

My specs are the following:

MOBO: Asus Sabertooth Z87
CPU: Intel Core i5-4670k
RAM: Vengeance Pro 16GB (2x8GB) 1866MHz
GPU: Sapphire HD 7770 1GB
OS: Windows 7 Professional

I had a similar problem back in the day, but that solution mention in old thread didn't work this time.

Thanks anyway,any suggestions/ideas or info would be helpful.

Probably the card is dying this time and time for an upgrade.

Thanks, but i thought the same also. Is there any way to make the GPU last a bit longer?
I can't spend at the moment money on GPU upgrade.

Make sure it is not overheating by cleaning it.
