Hey all,


Have not had any issues, was playing Diablo 3 fine this morning.
Went and layed down for a few hours (had a nasty headache) and woke up to play some more D3, went to login, and the game kept freezing/crashing before it even loaded.
After many attempts I finally got it to load for a few minutes.

I thought maybe the game was having issues, updated my drivers etc, and tried again, same problem.
After dinner I decided I would wait on D3, and do something else.

Went to load up LoL, and ofc the same problem, freezes right after I login.

I am running a GTX 960.

(If you need any other specs please lmk)

Have had the card for quite some time, so the worry I am having is that its going bad

What is the best way to test if the card is going bad?

Get SPECCY here: http://www.piriform.com/speccy/download
...get the FREE version from the: Piriform Link
...Speccy is a really nice system hardware/temperature, information Utility.
...simply install it...and run the program...then post a screen shot of the main page of the program, when posting a problem/question on these forums.

Hopefully this is what you are asking for :/

Assuming you have a decent power supply, your temps look good. I guess I would try drivers first...not just updating them.



DDU Instructions - Nvidia
1. Get this program, here: http://www.wagnardmobile.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=144 ...from the "Official Download Here" link, and save it to your desktop.
2. Get your vid card driver here, use the Manual Search: http://www.geforce.com/drivers ...save this to your desktop.
3. Run DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) choose the "Highly Recommend Option", and just do what it tells you. If it wants to go into "Safe Mode", let it.
4. After it's done and comp has rebooted to normal mode, just double click the Nvidia driver to install. If it want's to reboot, let it.



The only way to really test your vid card, is to run it in a different comp, or run a diff vid card in your comp.

its hitting 80c when in being used is what he told me in pm.

Yea, during a test with furmark it topped out at and stayed even at 80 celc.
Tomorrow I will clean out my case etc and see what I can do

Don't run Furmark on Nvidia cards... (well only run Furmark if you get it from EVGA). Use Unigine Valley.

Also use EVGA Precision or MSI Afterburner to control the vid card fan speed.
