Is my poor little 7870 dying?

[savagesam117]

I think my 7870 is either drunk, or dying.. I'm guessing it's the latter.

There is no coming back from this is there? I did notice that Sniper Ghost warrior was playing up too but I thought it just wasn't loading properly..

It lives at my nans for when I stay at hers so I have something to do of an evening. So i'd be pretty happy if I could sort it tbh!

Could be the memory. What sort of temps are you getting? Is it overclocked?

It idles at around 35/40c and about 60c in game. This house is like an oven so it doesn't help.
No overclock and it seems to be fine in battlefield.. Other games not so much.

haven't you heard of the new drunk diver graphics setting.

On topic yes it looks like its on its way out.

Damn

Looks like i'll have to pop the 750Ti back in and select low settings again

Are you setting power control to 20% in CCC?

Also try under clocking the gpu ram slightly maybe 200mhz,that's if more power control don't fix it

Might also need a good blow out now?

I haven't touched CCC.

I'll try underclocking and see how that goes. I gave it a clean recently as I put it into the new build, it's been boxed for months.

Look in amd/overdrive section in CCC,and set lower control to 20%

If it dies completely, bake it.
