Hey guys so I've been thinking about whether or not my 780 classified GPU is on it's way out and i'm unsure if it is or not.

After extensive testing over the past week i've had numerous results.

It's been unable to run a few games like GTA V for a while now and i'm getting a lot of issues in other games where they will run but they will have missing textures for some reason.

Some games run perfectly fine such a BO3 on max settings at 1440p 144hz and battlefield, HOTS etc but from time to time the games will randomly crash and even when browsing desktop i'll get a crash not all the time it's quite rare but it's claiming that the video card has stopped responding.

Here's a few more E.G, while playing SWTOR my personal ship in my hanger isn't showing it's just a small box i can see right through the ship. Also when starting up GTA V and it brings me to the main menu when i navigate through the menu the menu starts to lag and the music lags aswel.

So i'll set GTA V to it's lowest settings, I play on a 1440P monitor but i'll drop it to 1080p on the benchmark as it doesn't matter but i just wanted to make sure. Strange thing is GTA V even from the menu is unplayable. The benchmark claims it's sitting at 130FPS but it's very stuttery I'll link a video to show.

So i decided to try and run the Heaven benchmark and now i've been getting this strange rainbow flickering it's hard to explain so i'll link the video of the problem.

Any ideas on if it is my card or if it's a different problem, I've reinstalled windows, Reinstalled new drivers, Uninstalled new drivers and tried older ones and set everything to stock clocks and i'm getting the same results.

Hoping someone can help me as i'm very,very confused and i don't want to go spend £650 on a new card if it isn't the card. I've also tried all my sticks of ram separate and they all function fine.

Thanks!
 
I had one blue screen the other day while trying to benchmark, and i run both Mechanical and SSD but Both SSD's have OS and games on them. The mechanical has just videos and photo's on it with the odd game.

According to samsung magician my SSD's are healthy.
 
quick question, do you have razer surround streaming software running ? some ppl have the GTA 5 issue solved by killing the razer app.
others solved it by playing on borderless windowed mode, one thing is sure your GTA5 issue seem to be quiet common on GTX 7xx
if the GPU is working with other games, and only glitch with GTA then might not be the gpu, i dont know about valley thou

No i don't use Razer surround it's not be cup of tea.

Didn't know GTA V Has been such a issue with the 7xx cards.

It's worked really well for a long time then one day it just went.

Like i said it works well with some and with others it doesn't work what so ever.

this guy had the exact same issue as you here
 
After trying and trying and trying all day i did another wipe and it's fixed now.

I purchased a 980ti hydro copper earlier though as i thought i couldn't fix it.

Oh dear!
