So, just my luck.
When you think everything is stable, something new boils up.
So, it's kinda hard to explain but I'll do my best;
I am using a ASUS GTX780, all standard clocks. Haven't overclocked anything yet.
I got Drivers 320.49 WHQL installed.
I am using two monitors most times, one on the HDMI and one on the DVI using DVI-VGA adapter [old monitor for general web-browsing].
The HDMI monitor is the one in my signature, with standard 1920x1080.
The DVI is a random Packard Bell is useing 1920x1200.
Ok, so when I use this setup I get weird symptoms.
For example; when using GPU-Z's rendering test everything is fine until my card hits about 65°C [~149 Fahrenheit °F] then my HDMI starts to, at random, shut down. It does black as if my drivers are crashing. But my DVI monitor is all fine. Then after some of those flickering on and off for a few times when my card maxes out at ~80°C [~176 Fahrenheit °F] my HDMI gets green artifacts around dark areas. It all sounds like overheating to me, BUT it would have been noticed on my DVI too then, right?
Problem is that, when using only HDMI I don't get these problems. At least not when I've tried to recreate the problems.
Here are the MAX values on after 30min GPU-Z
