    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    I went ovet to a friends house to try the card on his computer and it crashed just like it did on my system. I guess that rules it down to being a falty card and just incredibly bad luck to get two of them in a roll. Going to fill an RMA application to the shop that sold me the card next...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    Hi Doz, My card is : Model No. : FX-797G-TD Part No. : FX-797G-TDFC I'm fairly sure it isn't a problem with the clocks as dropping them to 950/1400 (from 1050/1500) didn't help. I've now unplugged the 7970 card since getting anything done with it was impossible and my system and...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    Me again. I re-installed windows 8 on top of my previous installation of it. With just Firefox, all available updates to W8 and newest catalyst drivers (13.3) installed I got around 5 minutes into Diablo 3 before the first crash. Funnily enough it was stable in desktop use again, but gaming...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    Sorry about missing your comment about trying it on another system Xinmosni. I currently don't really have another system I could try it on. Mostly everyone I know uses laptops nowdays. I could try formating my Windows 8 installation and dropping a fresh windows 7 on it just to try it out...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    Hookai, The card started crashing on normal desktop use aswell up to the point where I could barely get a minute of use before it crashed. One crash had vertical lines filling the whole screen. I removed all catalyst software and drivers via driver sweeper in safe mode and the system seems...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    I was in game and playing for some minutes for the first two logs. For the next two the system had just rebooted and crashed almost as soon as I fired up Starcraft 2.

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    I'm not sure what to make of these, it seems that first the card stays running even with max stock clocks. Then after a few crashes it starts crashing as soon as the clocks go up to 1000+MHz. The logs were made playing World of Warcraft and Starcraft 2. I also tried running MSI kombustor for a...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    Some logs, please note that the crash might not happen exactly when the log stops as my system still keeps running for a few seconds when the monitors turn off. Here's GPU-z logs from two crashes: Date , GPU Core Clock [MHz] , GPU Memory Clock [MHz] , GPU Temperature [°C] , Fan...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    Thanks for the replies so far. I tested both of my RAM sticks one at a time in different slots with no change to anything. I'll run a memtest later when I have the time for it, just to make sure. I'm currently running MSI afterburner and GPU-z both side-by-side on my other monitor to scan...

    XFX Radeon DoubleD-7970 GHz black screen crashing

    Hello, I've been looking around the internets for this problem and while some people seem to have experienced it there wasn't a working solution to be found. So here I am, begging for help, after having exhausted every possible option I could think of. My system specs are as follows...
