Hi. I've just recieved my replacement card from Overclockers as the first one kept crashing then rebooting my pc when palying games.

This never happened on my previous card (GTX480), and all i did was replace it with the new one and installed the correct driver with a fresh install, and my problems started from then. So assuming the card was faulty, i contacted O/C and explained what was happening and had then had the card sent back for checking.
They sent me a replacement today and still there is a problem with my games crashing and my pc rebooting!!
Now surely this card cant be faulty as well??

Mmm.. I have a good spec system,, Z68 @4ghz, 16mb ram, XFX 750 pro PSU.
But i've just found out that this 780 card is a PCIe 3 card?? and my motherboard is PCIe2?
Does anybody reckon this could possibly be causing the problem?
Do i have to upgrade my motherboard now??

I hoping someone may have had a similar problem..
Thanks
phil
 
What make and model is your PSU and specifically the AMP's on each 12v rail from sticker on the side of it.
 
If it's rebooting without an error code it's most likely going to be your power supply giving out. Take it the rest of your system is stock / no overclocking?
 
Well its 750watt but could have weak 12v rail(s) or could all be good spec but simply faulty/dying.

Depending how you mounted it there should be massive sticker with all specs on it on 1 side.

Edit :It has a single 12v rail : http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/XFX-PRO-750-W-Power-Supply-Review/1182/1 < This your PSU?

Also you do not state your CPU only its 4GHZ on a Z68 Mobo.
