Just though i would post it on here to get some diffrent ideas from people.
So my zotac gtx 770 4gb is not working with my msi -g45 board. I just keep getting a black screen and then i need 2 restart my computer every time i stress out this card or sometimes just random, now i tried all the things i replaced it for a new one to make sure it was not faulty, i got the new drivers , new bios and still nothing , i put in my old graphic card which is a gtx 460 made by nivda. It worked perfectly with the drivers and when i stress its fine, So is it that the zotac brand and msi dont mix?

Spec
i5 4670k
hyper 212 evo
Corsair CX 750W PSU - 80plus Bronze Certified Modulas
zotac gtx 770 4gb version
msi z87-g45 motherboard

Thanks again guys
 
Doesn't matter about the brands.

Have you uninstalled the 460 drivers and got the 770 drivers installed?

Let me get something clear, when placed under load of a game your PC shuts down however with your 460 it doesn't?
 
ye i did that for 770 and it still did not work so i had to take it out so i could come on here and ask :) , and yes when i run a stress test or played a game with the 460 it worked fine , with the 770 it automatically did not work
 
It does sound power related, how're you powering the card, direct from the PSU or are you using moles to PCI-E type things?

From psu i believe but i mean the psu is like 2 weeks old and i got one strong enough for this build. Could it be something with the motherboard settings? Maybe something got changed , maybe i should try to reset it or something?
 
The PSU is definitely powerful enough however are you connecting the leads from the PSU straight into the graphics card or are you using any adapters? By adapters I mean like the ones you get in the box with the graphics card.
