Hi TPU guys (and gals),
I am about to RMA a PowerColor HD 5670 (in wife's pc) and I just wanted to be sure I did my due diligence. I have clean-installed the OS, tried several different drivers (11.3- 11.6), but this thing keeps on giving flickering pixels during a crysis bench (ran @ high 1280x720 dx9/10), and eventually giving either a bsod or 'display driver stopped responding' error after 2-3 loops. Flickering and error also occurs with less demanding games like WarCraft 3. I used the card as a filler for about 2 weeks while I was waiting for my 5870 RMA without issues, symptoms started about a week after being transferred to her pc.
Around the same time I also got a used 22' monitor for her, and I was just curious if monitors could somehow affect a gpu. (I guess I could just swap our monitors to test, but have been busy as of late and I have already taken out the 5670)
Thanks in advance!
