Got my EVGA GTX 980 SC today, made a clean install of the drivers (344.16) and played Assassins Creeds 3 for about 1 hour and worked flawless.
Then I tried do make some benchmarks with Heaven Benchmark 4.0 (using stock clocks).
First run was perfect, but when I tried the second run the software started to freeze: black screen > software minimize > software comes back to screen > black screen again > start all over...
Now when I try to play Assassins Creeds 3 or TF2 or any other game that is 3D the game crashes (sometime even at the menu), and when it freezes give me the 'driver stopped working and has recovered' message.
Tried with 344.11 but the crashing continues.
Also, noticed that after crashing Nvidia's driver lock my Core Clock at 999 MAX, that way I can play without problems, but as expected, with fps impact... so... its really a OC issue, but the real problem is that they are at STOCK speeds... EVGA or Driver problem? Thats the mistery...
Before the 980 I had 2 x 660ti in sli, so I dont think that its the PSU.
Here are my specs:
Psu: CoolerMaster SilentProM 850w
Mother: Sabertooth 990 FX R2.0
CPU: FX-8350
Memory: 12gb DDR3 1600mhz
OS: Windows 8.1
Driver: 344.16
He are some picture
At the first one you can see some blue blocks...
The second one you can see that the CORE CLOCK goes higher than the BOOST CLOCK, is that possible?
