Got a odd error

Hello guys!

I decided that instead of just running 3d mark 11/vantage I wanted to run valley benchmark with every set to extreme/high on 1920x1080 to see if my system was steady. I was aiming to run 1 hour and I did, with no problems and temps on gpu didn't go over 66c so I thought "what the hell, might as well run some more just to be sure it's stable" and I did.. 10 min after I get a white screen and nothing happens, sound from the valley benchmarking thingy is still on and running but I can't tab out of it or get task manager up to see if it's the program which is buggy or it's just a display driver who died. Running 13.3 Beta

What might this be? I have no idea of gpu vrm temps etc, couldn't watch cpu temp but I don't think it went over 55.

Appriciate any help regarding this matter.

Yeap, your graphics crashed... - you can try increasing the GPU voltage or lower the GPU frequency... same for the memory...

Cool, nothing to worry about then. I'll go at it first thing after work tomorrow 🙂

Thanks alot!

/e is valley benchmark 1.0 a reliable stress test for the whole setup? Is there anything better?

I guess that it's more for graphics cards and less for CPU and memory... - since there are no points for it on HWBOT, I'm not using it... 🙂

Yeah, figured as much. I pretty much wanted a stress test that was as close to gaming as possibe. Absolute best would be gaming but I'd rather have it running while I watch a movie on my tv. Is there anything better?

The best testing is your regular use...

But if you want to really stress your rig, run Furmark and prime95 in the same time... 🙂 Watch the temps!!! - and be aware that even running with no probe for a week, it won't mean anything else than it can run those applications for a week... (it may crash in the first 5 minutes in your favorite game)

Well, I wanted something as close to gaming as possible, neither prime or furmark is that. I guess I'll keep on going with valley.

Thanks alot!
