Hey 8 pack, since my overclock and when it started getting unstable in Heaven, when I found the apparent stable settings of 950/1475 with a voltage of 1110 and left it there, and the games I played were fine, monitored constantly and never went above 66c or 67c. Then out of nowhere in Skyrim I got stretching and flickering textures so I thought fair enough, I'll drop the OC and see what it's like but it persisted, the artifacts remained. So I figured it may be a problem with the game and the newest beta drivers, so I played Street Fighter IV at stock clocks and all sorts happened, such as the ground disappearing and becoming black and white like a chess board and the sky warping and flickering, so I decided at this point to drop to the latest official release drivers. Ever since Street Fighter IV has been fine, but the issues in Skyrim persist and in Crysis 2 there is a weird flickering issue with a lot of objects when looking at them from a certain angle. I'm very worried as I was very delicate with the overclocking and dropped to stock at the first sign of unstability and reverted my drivers and games still appear unstable. I haven't had the card a week yet. :/
I've been running the card in MSI Kombuster for 12 minutes now at 2560x1600 8X MSAA, and it's really bought my system to a slow down, everything I do whilst it is doing this seems very slow and stuttery, as well as the test itself stuttering frequently. I'll post a screenshot of the test and the GPU sensors from GPU-Z now.
I hear that 50A VCCD Current is something to be very worried about, as the 7950's in the Google search results have all gone above 120, with a suspected damaged card pushing 70-80.
Very worried now. :/
