Hello everyone,
first I would like to apolagize if my question has already been answered or if it is in the wrong place however, I think my board might be frying graphics cards. I bought my case, psu, mobo(maximus vi formula) , 4770k, 32g RAM, various drives and ect. I was using the internal graphics of the 4770k, but later put my very old EVGA 9800GT video card from my old build. After about 2 weeks of play with it, I was playing BF4 and got red vertical lines and then black screen. Took video card out, and used internal graphics again. At christmas, my father bought me a 780 from asus with the directcu2 fans, whatever it is and I installed it into my build. Booted my pc, installed drivers, ect. and got nothing but black screen, sat and watch if something would happed for 30 minutes or so. Then I was thinking maybe my PCIe slot was broke. However I had another 9800GT EVGA that was barely used and has been in my build ever since, going strong. I got the 780 RMA'ed and hopefully was only a bad card, but I dont know if it was or my mobo. I have also been reading that people have been having same issues with the mobo and graphics card. any advice would be appreciated, thanks and have a great day.
