I had issues previously with a Gigabyte OC GTX 670, and ended up returning that, so I jumped on the ASUS TOP 670 when it came into stock on Newegg.
I figured I should run Heaven a few loops to make sure temps are reasonable... Well, they are.... at least they are until Heaven crashes. This is using stock settings and the 301.42 drivers in Windows 7 64-bit. Temps rise to 69 C before I get the crash.
I reinstalled the OS last week since I got a 3570k and a P8Z77-V Pro. A 4870 was installed at the time. Today, I removed the 4870, installed the 670, booted into windows, removed the catalyst software (and all drivers), and then installed the 301.42 Nvidia drivers.
Any suggestions? I'm pretty amazed that I've had issues with two GTX 670s in a row, from two different vendors. I'm hoping it is just a software/driver synergy situation. I'd hate to have to send back another 670 at this point.
The only components that are the same between my old and new builds are the HDDs, the PCI sound card (X-fi), and the power supply (650 watt).
I'm running Heaven with:
API: DirectX 11
Tesselation: Extreme
Shaders: High
Anisotropy: 16x
Stereo 3D: Disabled
Multimonitor: No
Anti-aliasing: 8x
Full screen: No
Resolution: 1600x1200
