Hi,
Been having some very frustrating problems the last month or so...
Heres my rig:
HAF-X Case + Catleap 2560x1440 dual screen
3930K @ 4.2Ghz with H100i block
Rampage IV Extreme Mobo
16GB Kingston Hyper-X @ 2133Mhz
520 250GB / 256 M5 Pro SSD's
2TB WD Black (storage n crap)
2 x 680GTX Asus DCII TOP Edition
Corsair 850HX
LED Fan Controller
Problem has been my GPU side of things, started with BF3 - random crashes, screen goes black then comes back on after 4/5 secs and I'm welcomed with a "DRIVER 1**.** HAS STOPPED RESPONDING AND HAS SUCCESSFULLY RECOVERED" OR "BF3 HAS ENCOUNTERED A DIRECTX ERROR" OR same thing happens but I have to tap the trusty CTRL - ALT - DEL and end process.
Then it started with WOW (please don't judge me, I love PvP) its an old game with a combination of dated programming and pc demand but still no excuse for hanging this SLI setup.
playing both games on ULTRA max settings with superb FPS and smooth as silk game play.
Now its been happening with Far Cry 3 and BL2.
What I've tried;
Clean driver install following the guide on this forum to the letter (including new and old drivers + beta)
Full re-install of OS
Intel Burn test with no errors - CPU max 80'C
Extreme settings on benchmark programs like Uniengine (the one with the trees and mountains)
monitoring temps closely with GPU Tweak and HW Monitor GPU max 70'C
Ram Memtest before latest OS re-install but not recently.
Programmes running during crashes;
GPU Tweak
HWMonitor
Razer Game Booster
Skype
680 Gamecom (Headset software)
Intel Rapid Storage thingy
Curse Client
Steam
UPlay - formerly Ubisoft Game Launcher
Google Chrome - for BF3 server selection etc
I know my way around a PC fairly well however I'm no where near as experienced as most of you guys on here, I'm not reckless with my Rig in anyway, nor would I try silly Overclocking of CPU/GPU etc. I've had PC's all my life and for me there is no other way to game/surf/edit etc etc...
Thanks for reading my post, any response or help would be fantastic as this issue is really starting to get me down a tad... its my pride n joy and I hate the frustration this issue can cause.
Thank again,
Nerd...
