Sorry I deleted the post as after a restart or two and a couple of other updates it was fine. Its all updated fine now. Im still updating bits and bobs before I get to actually play anything.

Just fired up CoH2 and as the game was loading the map I had a crash but it was a bugsplatt crash so it was software related not hardware!

Been having issues with origin finding games, ive told it where all the games are but its not having any of it. Uplay and Steam have been fine however. Gonna try playing a game of Farcy 4, see how that works!
 
After a clean install of windows and countless hours of optimising and updating stuff ive just launched a game of CoH2 whereby I encountered the same bloody crash. This time the only difference was instead of a sound loop playing it carried on playing the in-game music as if nothning happened. No way to get out of this other than hard reset.

Again the LCD on my logitech was displaying a HUGE % figure for GPU. It was at least 6 numbers long when of course the max should only be 100. Is this a PSU problem perhaps?

Ill try and replicate the issue with a log from CPU-Z.
 
Ive just played 2 games of CoH2 with my PC being monitored by software and did I get a crash, no...

Maybe I need to start wanting my PC to crash it wont... Bloody thing!
 
Hey guys, Ive just run a test on memtestg80 and its come back with:-

'Final error count after 50 iterations over 128 MiB of GPU memory: 79727 errors'

Does this mean the GPU is the perpetrator here and that I need to RMA it?
 
What model did you you go for?

It might be worth get a photo of the errors and post a note in the customer section with the photo. If this pre-Overclocked then you could still have faulty memory on the card, least with doing the various tests above you can rule out other factors of the system.

Its the Galax infinity no coil whine thingy. Its a nice looking card...

Ive pushed this onto the customer support and they suggested OCUK testing it.

Still baffles me though.
 
Just had an email from OCUK team stating that they couldn't find any faults with the card and htat they were sending it back. Kinda disappointed tbh as in the meantime I plugged my 2 580's back in and couldnt replicate the problem.

Any suggestions guys?
 
could be something to do with the uefi bios on the gpu

are you using award motherboard bios or latest beta uefi? maybe worth trying uefi

Your going to have to explain that to me in english im afraid (im a noob, sorry!).

All I know is when I got the card, I pulled out my old cards, popped in my new one and installed the relevant drivers (I used DDU in safe mode). Is there something else I need to do?
 
Got my latest mobo Bios, made sure I downloaded it. I also did a fresh install of windows which included updating all that stuff.

Unfortunately its looking like OCUK have just cost me £300 for a dodgy card that I can't get replaced.
