Dead GPU?

Hello,

I have SLI 980Ti's and I have recently tried overclocking them without changing the voltages. Everything has been fine the last few days but yesterday after playing any game for 15-20 minutes the screen has green flashing. Similar to this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6o3slx1jkqk).

I'm wondering if I have buggered my GPU(s) or if thats an indication of something else. It is only the games that show this, when I minimise the game everything else is fine.

Thank you.
 
I tried that lastnight, made no difference :( It seems to only mainly happen in SLI config.

I'm going to stress test each card individually, is Heaven a good option for that?
 
Go into Nvidia Control panel, click on Change resolution and then tick Use Nvidia Colour Settings and apply, see if that helps.

My 980ti was playing up in Arc and that sorted it out for me

How were you overclocking (MSI AB, etc)? You've removed the overclock right? This sort of thing happens when you push the card too far and it needs more voltage or it's just at the limits of the silicon - generally you remove the overclock, reboot and it's fine.

I was using MSI AB, I've reverted the overclock and everything. It wasn't even a taxing one! Hopefully it'll sort itself out.
 
Try unplugging and plugging in the DP/HDMI cable.
Are you using a screen that supports hdr? My tv sometimes goes green and I think it is related to hdr being outputted at the wrong time. Fixed by making sure games are native res.
Maybe try disabling and reenabling sli too.
 
Try another SLI bridge if it only seems to impact SLI configs and as mentioned remove the OC if you have not already. Could be one of the 2 GPU's is not behaving nicely when you overclock.
 
I removed all of my drivers and reinstalled them before running one card at a time. Stress tested them on Fire Strike without an issue. I haven't had anymore issues with them (touch wood). Thank you for all of your replies!
