I believe that my crashes, since 12/27/13, are related to the 780ti. I've had a normal 780ti with acx cooling and now classified. Before that, for the 2 prior months that BF4 was released, I never had a single crash in BF. What gives? Are the clocks on these TI cards just not very stable?

    Why do you say that? What were you running before the TI? Have you tried downclocking your card -105 each on both the core and memory to see if it helps with the crashes?

    Instead of Downclock and gett less FPS,  Try to ramp upp the voltage :)  if not that helps  try ofc Down and upp whit voltage at the same time

    What power supply are you running, how much on the 12V rail(s)?  Not sure if the one in your Mods rigs is up to date.  Also are you running 2 cards in SLI now or just one?  I have a 1000w PSU that is hitting 850Watts under load with Dual 780s and the same CPU as you.  I noticed that your ModRigs says that you have a Corsair 860i which appears to be 92% efficient under full load which would net you ~791.2Watts which would all be used if you are running SLI.  If your not running SLI then your full load would be around 600watts give or take.

    Just one card with an 860i PSU. I was running an ax 1200, but it died. I also ran a 910 watt PC Power and cooling PSU. As for cards before, I ran a 780 with ACX. I still have a 680 lying around. I might try that to see if the problem goes a way.

    It happens randomly in the middle of a round. I am not using precision. I am using Afterburner. It has happened when I was not running any monitoring software. I used to driver sweeper in safe mode between driver installs. I stopped doing that though... I am wondering if not doing so is causing the issue.

    Are you running into this issue in any other game, or just BF4?

    Just bf4. Titanfall shows a crash error only after closing the application completely.

    I uninstalled the drivers and ran driversweeper in safemode like I used to. Played about an hour or so and no issues with BF4. There was actually a lot that Nvidia left behing over the past 7 months or so. Counterstrike GO was no longer stuttering either. Titanfall still crashes on exit, but I just uninstalled it again... I'm not a big fan of that game anyway.

    Glad to see a fully clean install is working now.  Let us know if you're still running into any problems, or if the problems return.

    I haven't been able to launch bf4 for awhile lol. I coulda sworn I got it working a month or so back.
    But it hangs when trying to join a game, not even able to get in and play on the servers for the gaming event :(

    I will. The problem is pretty random, so it might be a while before I update if there is another crash.

    4 days later and still no crash. I have played for several hours now too. I think driver sweeping in safe mode did the trick.

    Spoke too soon. It froze and crashed today. Game is forever broken. I put back in my 680. If there is no crash in about a week, then EVGA's 780ti is to blame.

    I am still not fully sure that it is the card and not the game. I guess when I get it all sorted out, if it is the card, I will contact EVGA for a RMA. Thanks James, I appreciate you replying to this thread.
