[SOLVED] unstable asus rog strix 1080 ti oc

[jacobhagstrom]

so my card is unstable (crashing in games) should i downclock or should i try to up the voltage and if so how much. and the card stays at 65-70c under 100% load it doesn't go above 70c

is that card at stock clocks at the moment? how long have you had it?

If its not stable at factory settings id be inclined to return it for a replacement

i bought it from a guy a month ago so its about 7 months old. I wanted to buy it new but the 1080 ti's are out of stock. I don't have any warranty due to that asus doesn't allow the warranty to transfer over to the new owner… so that sucks tbh

 

[stevenjemint]

what happens when it crashes? are tou just returned to the desktop and the game closes?

 

[stevenjemint]

Also what PSU do you have? it may not be getting enough power at full load.

 

[jacobhagstrom]

the game crashes and i'm brought to the desktop. Corsair HX1000i PSU Platinum

 

[stevenjemint]

is this happening on several games or just the one?

 

[jacobhagstrom]

almost all games

 

[jacobhagstrom]

when the gpu is stressed

ok well yes you could try underclokcing it and dropping the voltage a bit.
