Hi there,
My system is as follows:
Gigabyte 965P DS3 rev 3.3
E6600 @ 3.43 + Scythe Ninja
2gig corsair XMS2 800MHz @ 980MHz
600 watt power supply
MSI 8800GT OC edition + HR 03 GT
My 8800gt overclocks to 750/1800/1050 using riva tunner. During stability tests the card is 100% stable - artifact scanner in ATi Tool 3 hours clean. 3D Mark 6 has been run several times and the score averages around 13800. Also tryed other stability tesys such as the Ntune tool which ran fine for 30 mins. Card temps at full load are between 45 - 55.
All that sounds great and my card should be stable. However, within about 5 mins of game play in Crysis, Bioshock, Call of Duty 4 the card locks, music freezes and repeats the same sound it stopped at.
If i can run 3D mark 6 and artifact scanner over and over why is my card freezing in games.
I'm fairly new to all this so forgive me if i'm doing something completely stupid.
Can anyone help?
