| Post subject: | i think my gpu is going out on me |
Alright the last few days i noticed one of my 9600gt's was running about 10 degrees hotter then the other one. Thought it was lack of air flow even tho i have a slot cooler right below it. So i switch them around and everything is normal but its still running hot. Then when i tried to play a game it gets this green haze to it for some reason the whole screen isn't like that but most of it is. When i try to play CS:S its different it's like lines running across my screen really fast. But watch streaming videos or anything but a game makes it F*CK up. Do you think that its starting to die on me. I removed it from my case and running on my other card right now and everything is back to normal. |

Those lines are artifacts,yes its dying on you.RMA if you can,if not you can try to downclock the memory so maybe it will last till you get a new one. Its most likely a memory module that went sour,due to heat or a thousand other things.Like i said if you cant drop coin on a new card right now underclock the memory and maybe the core too until the artifacts leave. |
