Poxvirus Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Hi I have recently got the problem with my computer. After few minutes of work (not playing games, Ati control shows GPU temp is 41 Celsius) I see on the screen strange artifacts (please take a look in the attachments). Then computer restarts by itself but can not load the system because it hangs up again in half way booting. The only way to load system is safe mode or turn it off and wait few minutes. After that everything works ok, but again only for few minutes and the story repeats. I have to admit that those artifacts are also present when I am in bios settings. My question is: it is caused by RAM or GPU? My specs are in profile, nothing has been ever overclocked. RAM settings 4-4-4-12, 2T, 2.1V, MCH 1,2V.

Synthohol Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 i RMA'd 2 video cards because my issue looked similar. if you boot in safe mode and it still does that im almost positive its the card(s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poxvirus Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 Yes, I got the same view as pictured even in safe mode. Do you know the cause? It is RAM located on graphic card or GPU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synthohol Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 i think the capacitors were the cause, EVGA was very nice about the RMAs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
