Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum, so don't judge to harsh, if I'm doing smth wrong.
The story: a week ago I got a new PNY
1070ti blower (it's mark 1 as I understand) to later build up a new PC. Meanwhile I decided to use it in my old one, the setup is: Core I7 2600, Asus p8h61-m pro, 8GB 1333mhz RAM, 700GB HDD, Everest 88Plus 700 (700w, silver). Latest BIOS, clean install of nvidia drivers etc.
HDMI connection to my TV (Full HD, 60mhz).
The problem: I ran into very strange glitches in specific gaming and other scenarios, played several games, results were very strange, for example:
- PREY (2017) - first day got some 1ms black screens in inventory, black-grey checkers in the corner of the screen. Some transparent black textures (dark glass, ammo counter on the gun) disappeared at a certain angle (only on 1 map tho). Later, all these glitches disappeared.
- Wolfenstein II (2017) - not a hint on glitches or whatsoever
- DOOM (2016) - also 100% fine
- Kingdome Come: Deliverance - overall low FPS (probably not the card), no glitches
- Battlefront II (2017) - a 1sec black to white fullscreen gradient after loading screen, some dust/snow going on in a character selection window. After 2 mins ingame, PC reboots.
UPD. Managed to get about 2 hours of playing on low without reboots, but at some point it did crash. On reboot error log states"Kernel-Power" - error 41
- When opening an app, or a website there can be a 2ms-1sec black screen, e.g. before loading Furmark, or when loading a level in a game.
In 2D there are totally no artifacts or glitches, except the blackscreens.
The testing: I've been through many runs of furmark, tho not for too long - no artifacts, or glitches. I've done some weird artifact test (some grey and white objects flying around) and also got nothing.
The Googling: I found out that there was some Micron memory issue (which is on my card), that got solved by a new VBios, that was developed by most vendors (not PNY ofc). I found a couple of VGA Bios for PNY 1070ti here, but they are for a 2-fan card and they are customs.
The techsup: In my country there are no PNY authorized service centers, so they didn't even try to solve my problem and ask me for any tests, or suggest a new BIOS, they just told me to send it to France and pay for the shipping and the return shipping if they find no problems with the card. The reseller suggested I send the card to him, but it's even more unlikely they will find these glitches, due to their situational and very specific origin. And again I pay for shipping, testing etc.
The quest: I would be very happy if someone suggested a software solution for this problem, give an opinion on other possible sources of this problem (e.g. old RAM, bad power supply etc.) or suggest a series of tests to specify the problem
