EVGA 1080 GTX Glitching problem

[tomcoleman]

Just got my new 1080 EVGA FE this morning

only in windows i get glitching when doing anything in games it's fine.

Did a clean install of the latest driver this morning from nvidia, i have also uninstalled and re-installed, same issue.

Monitor is a Dell S2716DG @ 144hz. Before swapping out my Windforce 980Ti's SLI didnt have this issue.

Card at idle is 32c

I would DDU it completely. Ensure stock clocks. Latest driver, possibly roll it back to prev driver.

Re-seat it aswell. Any jumping around in afterburner etc?

What sort of voltage and core speed is it defaulting too during idle?

If its fine in games its most likely a windows issue.

i haven't even loaded any OC tools on it yet.

just re-seated, uninstalled all nvidia drivers/apps, back to minimum.

just seeing if fixed

seems to be ok now, i'll throw some temp onto it see what happens also

Try running screen at less than 144hz and see if problem persists?

May have been a the Display port cable not getting a good connection and your re-seating the card inadvertently fixed it?

when you said re-sit, did you take it out of the pcie slot and re-put it back in?

but do think its probably something simple - like a loose plug or something.

Have you installed the new 1080 drivers ? 368.25 ? I see you have.

thats a EASY fix

thats a connection is i used to get that on my 4K setup its either a not very good cable or bad connection reseat both ends of the DP/dvi etc

 

[tomcoleman]

Fixed. Just reseated card and reinstalled driver
