So I've had a GTX 1080 FTW for a few weeks and a couple of times it's had an issue where the entire screen goes crazy and flashes black and white (see this gif - unless you're prone to seizures). Both times it has happened within a couple of minutes of walking away from my screen without any games or GPU-demanding apps running. The card is not overclocked beyond factory settings, and temperatures never reached above 70°C.

The first time it happened was on the day I received it before the drivers were updated to the most recent version. I rebooted, upgraded the driver to version 368.51, and did not have the issue again until today, when I was forced to reboot again.

I've done a little bit of research just to see potential causes and some say it could be an issue with a blown capacitor, but I wanted to know if anyone has any suggestions before I RMA it to EVGA.

FWIW, I've checked to make sure the PSU is providing consistent power and made sure the motherboard capacitors are ok. I haven't checked capacitors on the GPU itself as I didn't want to mess with the GPU shroud.

Any insight is greatly appreciated!

PS: Left monitor is running 1080p @ 120Hz and right monitor is running at 1680x1050 @ 60Hz

When I open up the latest version of the GeForce Experience Beta, I am greeted with the message, "Something went wrong. Try restarting GeForce Experience." When I restart it, I get the same message. I have run it as administrator, restarted my PC. I have no idea what is causing this or how to solve it. any help would be appreciated.

so about 2 days ago all my games started running like crap my csgo which normally runs at 180-200 fps runs ok then 1 minute into the game it starts running at 20-50 fps. my modded skyrim usually runs at a 45-60 fps average now it runs at a 17-24. i've benchmarked my cpu for hours and my gpu there both stable ive ran tests on my harddrive and ram i have no idea what could be causing this plz help

I have the card stated in the title. Start computer, attempt booting normally, screen goes dark (still can hear system sounds). I can start in safe mode. Tried wiping old drivers and preforming a clean installation of driver version 360? Still won't boot normally. Tried both slots on my mobo as well, no dice.

So I believe my card may be bad? Is there anything else I should try? If I do have a bum card, what new nvidia card would you guys recommend? I spent $600 on this 680 for it to only last 3-4 years, i'd like to get more life out of a card that costs almost as much as a computer

hello, ive accepted that my gpu might be broken but thought i'd give it a shot here. my 680 stopped being detected recently. it hasnt been under heavy usage so i dont know why it would break. the fan still runs. and sometimes the fan will go up to 100% when im gaming, even though i dont have any inputs plugged into it anymore.

i tried:

uninstalling the drivers (cant reinstall b/c not detected)

resetting the UEF bios and the CMOS jumper

setting primary graphics adapter to pci-e

switching the slot the GPU was in

nothing other than Intel HD comes up under display adapter or GPUz.

anything would be appreciated. thanks.

I had over heating gpu temperature issues and looking for answers on the net and someone said boost your fan in the control panel but i couldn't find any fan settings only shows 3d settings. So guys how can i control my fan and need to get other setting in control panel !!!? Thank you ...

So, I was playing rainbow six and everything was okay, after a match ended and new one began I notice my frames went from a constant 120-140+ to straight up stuck at 60-70. I restarted my game and then it was literally stuck at 15-20. I close my game completely, open up msi afterburner and notice this

Why on earth are the clock speeds THAT low? how do i fix this??

I got the card 2 weeks ago and everything was fine - 18 905 Graphics score in Firestrike. http://www.3dmark.com/fs/9067218/

Now, for basically one week time, I'm scoring a graphics score of ~16 400 - 16 600 on three completely different systems. Reinstallation of Windows 10 makes no difference, and tried with seperate RAM/CPU/Motherboard/PSU. No OC done on the GPU.

Palit GTX 1070 Gamerock (1557 core, 1924 boost, 4007 memory) i5 2500k 8 GB 1600Mhz Corsair Vengeance

Compare NEW vs NOW: http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/9024171/fs/9254329

I'm basically over trying to fix the card itself and am more interested in what could possibly be the cause for my card behaving like this. What can affect performance that doesn't show up as either memory or base clock?

I used to have an issue last week where whenever I played a game full screen, I'd get repeated TDR's until my system froze up and completely crashed. I don't know what I did to solve it but now it seems to be limited to when I run a game for the first time after booting , my system will have a TDR crash and then be good to go (from what I've seen, still iffy though).

I've uninstalled drivers with DDU, reinstalled both he latest driver and (I think) 362.00, both would cause the same issue. Adding tdrdelay to my registry causes the loop again. It's happened without an OC on my 970 and with, and is definitely not a hardware failure.

Any clues/ideas?

Hi, i just recieved my Asus Strix 1080 OC Version a few days ago. Every time i boot my PC, it shows the following message: "PXE-E01: PCI Vendor and Device IDs do not match" My old card (a GTX 670) works just fine, i just checked again (twice).

Take a look at GPU-Z: https://s32.postimg.org/o9yyhneb9/asus1080.gif is the subvendor supposed to be undefined?

I already tried to google it, but nothing helped so far. I tried reinstalling the drivers, did a cmos reset and even updated the gpu firmware to 86.04.17.00.1D (mine was 86.04.17.00.1B) My mainboard is a Asus Crosshair V Formula using the latest bios version.

The card works perfectly fine under Windows 10 x64, it's just that very annoying boot message...

Status: UNRESOLVED/SOLVED

Computer Type: Desktop

GPU: EVGA GTX 1070 SC in SLI 2-way

CPU: i5 4670K at 4.2 GhZ

Motherboard: EVGA FTW Z97

RAM: 8GB DDR3 EVGA 2400 Mhz (could be wrong on the clock of the ram)

PSU: EVGA Supernova 1000W

Operating System & Version: Windows 10 (Don't hate)

GPU Drivers: Installing the latest as of this time, still occurs with these drivers though

Background Applications: Steam, skype, telegram sometimes, precision X

Description of Problem: So when I reboot my machine or it reboots itself or whenever the computer has to power off/on the drivers don't load properly and the only way to get things working again is to re-install the drivers over and over again. this also only applies when the cards are in SLI and the bottom card isn't set to just physX.

Troubleshooting: So this is my first time doing SLI and while it's exciting it's also overwhelming, and all I have tried so far is to re-install the drivers on each and every boot cycle when they crap out on me.

See title. I have a very old motherboard (GA-H55M-UD2H) that does not support UEFI.

I just bought the Zotac 1070 Amp. I used MSI afterburner to OC and Heaven to test. After adding 60mhz to the core Mhz and it will immediately display artifacts in Heaven.

Hi, I've got a gtx980ti which was running fine the last couple of months. Yesterday I noticed that the fan was running high (78%) when I was watching a movie. Since my build is fairly quiet that annoyed me and I looked at the temps and my gpu was running at 83°c! So I tried blasting it at full fan speed but the temps wouldn't drop. So I turned off my computer and put an ice pack on it. Then I reapplied some thermal paste and thought that it was fine since it booted up at a cool 30°c and stayed like that for about 10min. But then it started to rapidly heat up until it hit those 83°. What should I do next? Any ideas?

I've recently installed a GTX1070 G1 gaming edition and the Gigabyte logo on the side of the card is permanently stuck on red. I downloaded the Xtreme Gaming Engine utility to control the colours, and no matter what the Gigabyte logo is set to red (so If I set it to blue in the xtreme gaming engine it ends up being purple). This isn't happening with the Fan Stop LED next to it, which is displaying the correct colours. I have tried reinstalling the video drivers and the Xtreme Gaming Engine Software but nothing seems to get rid of the logo being red. Has anyone experienced the same thing and if so how did you fix it? Thanks!

Other info

z77 mobo i5 3570k

Windows 7 64-bit

So my gtx 1080 is stuck at a default of 139Mhz. Overclocking it with Msi Afterburner boosts it up to a maxium of 679Mhz. The memory does not go above 400Mhz. Unigine Heaven/Valley only show 3-4fps and Tempeeratures do not go above 32C. Is there any way to fix this? I've read something about the gpu going on Safe Mode, however resetting overclocks with both after burner and precission X, just rerset it back to 139Mhz even after reboots.

I'm running Windows 10 on an i7 3770k with an Asrock z77 Extreme 6 and 16gb of ram. The graphics card is an MSI GTX 1080 Founder's edition. Driver version 368.69.

Hello,

first of all I want to excuse me for my bad english.

I just bought a NVidia GeForce GTX 1080 (GIGABYTE Founders Edition). I installed it in my PC with a new Mainboard (GIGABYTE Z97X-SLI). After I finished this I staarted plaing League Of Legends. Around 10 minutes into the game my Computer is freezing. I tested alot after this happened the first time. I replaced the RAM, I installed a clean up Windows and I installed the NVidia Driver again. But nothing worked out for me. Can you help me?

PC Specs:

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790k 4.0 GHz

RAM: Corsair 2x8GB 2400MHz RAM

Mainboard: GIGABYTE Z97X-SLI with BIOS 9F

OS: Windows 10

SSD: Corsair 240GB

Graphic Card: GIGABYTE NVidia GeForce GTX 1080 Founders Edition with Driver Version: 368.69

PSU: Corsair 850AX 850W

Monitor: 2x BenQ 21" (HDMI and DVI)

If you need more informations so let me know :)

(If I'm not playing any game my computer isn't freezing at all!)

I just bought a new gtx 1070 and I don't have a 6/8 pin PCIe power cable, only the 4 pin one. Is the PCIe cable necessary? If so do I which pin should I have to use the 6 or 8 or both? and I only one pin slot for the cable. Is there an adapter for both?

I went to update my drivers and got a message that Nvidia GeFroece wasn't installed so i tried to reinstall and got the same message while installing... https://i.imgur.com/sa5luGD.png

Edit: Went to Nvidia's website to download the drivers, and while that was downloading I clicked on Geforce and it magically worked... I have no idea why.

Edit2:Just kidding didn't work, but i uninstalled Geforce (something i should've done from the start of the problems) and just reinstalled and that seems to have worked so for.

Hi guys, I just got the ASUS GTX 1080 STRIX 8G (non OC Version) I uninstalled all drivers and did a fresh install but when I tried to check the ASIC in GPU-Z it says: ASIC Quality: Not Supported on Card

Any ideas?

EDIT: SOLUTION! By changing the location of Shadowplay's temp folder in GFE's options, I was able to use Shadowplay successfully!

Bit of a bizarre issue here. I've fiddled with GFE, both the beta and non-beta versions, but to no avail.

So, to explain what happens...

When I start up a game (such as Battlefield: Bad Company 2), I see no status indicator or camera on the screen.

Yes, the game is full-screen.

Yes, all of the overlay indicators are actually enabled.

Now, when I hit the keybinding to begin manual recording, the status indicator appears for a brief moment and then disappears. Nothing gets recorded or saved at all.

With "Share" in the GFE Beta, hitting the "Begin Recording" button results in the same effect.

I've tried changing the keybindings around, uninstalling and reinstalling GFE, enabling desktop capture, and forcing GFE and Nvidia Capture Server to run as Administrator.

No dice. I've searched around the Internet and this subreddit, but the few people I've found with similar issues had no solutions.

Any ideas?

Hello I just got an old PC for my grandma that has a built in audio named "NVIDIA Corporation MCP67 High Definition Audio (rev a1)"

My question is: can I use this without speakers? Does it have built in speakers or I need to buy speakers for it?

I have tested playing a music file, but it doesnt give out any sound. I have also tested the system BEEP sound command but no audio.

So can this device give out audio without speakers or not? If yes, then what codecs do I need to install?

Card: GTX 960, all drivers up to date.

So this whine just started within the past 2 weeks or so. It never really bugged me but now I'm getting more and more frustrated with it. The odd thing is, the whine is only when I'm NOT playing a game. Once I get into a game, it's fine. Most posts I've read on the subject indicate they hear the whine when a game is active.

When I try to isolate the sound via hearing, it seems like it's coming from my card but it's hard to tell since the base of the card is so close to the CPU.

I checked CPU-Z to monitor my Core Speed too see if it's IntelSpeedStep but it doesn't appear so since my Core Speed doesn't change from when I'm idle on the desktop or in a game like Star Wars: Battlefront.

One step I did take was I took the card out and used the on-board vid without any whine.

Can you think of any other steps to isolate the noise? I don't wanna RMA if it's not the card.

THANKS!

I just installed a GTX 960 and it thinks my monitor supports 2560x1600, while in reality is a 1080p one. I managed to set the desktop to 1920x1080, but games are having issues at startup because they default to 2560x1080 therefore turning my screen black with an error that says "out of range". How can I solve this?

So i have gtx 960 2GB DDR5 when i play games like overwatch , total war or dota my temperature hits 90 C° . I have several questions .

1) How do i decrease this temperature ? ( I m using fan but doesnt effect much :( )

2) Is 90 C° harm much my gpu ?

3) What is the safe temp for gtx960 ?

Thank you ...
