Could a GPU cause a System Crash?

It isn't the PSU. I would try some other drivers for your GPUs. 12.8 iirc was quite a decent set. I assume you have a temp monitor running and can cofirm heat isn't the issue?

Yeh my 7970s didn't go past 60 degrees. My CPU stayed a nice chilly 40-50 degrees. I had logs going so I could see all readings till the point of the crash.


Arent we only upto 12.11? So 12.8? Me=ConfuseD?

Have you tested your ram?

Yeh the RAM passed Memtest86+ several times without error. Also did 12 hours of Prime95 with perfection.

Just had a replacement motherboard which the orignal was faulty as I thought this issue was related to that, but it still kept happening afterwards.
 
12.8 are older drivers. It may have been 12.7 that was reported as very stable but what ever, try a few to confirm if it is driver or other issues.

Where can I get 12.8 64 bit driverS? Can't find anywhere that looks legit.

Just got them but I can onyl find a 32 bit version?

Any help?
