Hi guys,
 
I'm having this issue that i don't know what to do with - I bought a new 1060 TI and started playing Dying Light, pretty old game running smoothly. However, every now and then the game freezes, the sound freezes and hard reset is the only option. I've contacted support, they responded really quickly, they said that this was game's issue and i should contact them. I did, it was long time ago so nothing happened, but that's not important.
 
What is important that i started playing other games: GTAV, Rise of the Tomb Rider, Far Cry 3, Far Cry 4... Each of this games is running really smoothly, so I'm not using some ultra settings, but every now and then I have the same crash. I just run Project Cars, a car game, not that demanding on GPU - it crashed twice as well :/
 
It is getting harder and harder for me to believe that all of those games have issues :/ Do you guys have something similar? What can i do with it?

I have Intel i7-6700K, it's not overclocked or anything. My PC is basically new, I made it myself 4 moths ago. I don't know what is psu unfortunately :/

Ok thx, so i have:

• Intel i7-6700K, not overclocked
• EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 TI SC
• Gigabyte Z170M-D3H motherboard
• "Be quiet!" Power Zone 650W 80PLUS Bronze PSU
• "Be quiet!" Shadow Rock Slim S1155/1366/2011/AM3+ cooling
• Kingston HyperX FURY 2x8GB 2133MHZ DDR4 memory

Ok, so I tried this twice. The first time after underclocking both CPU and memory, the issue appeared very quickly, basically on the race's loading screen. After the reset, I underclocked for the second time. This time I was able to run couple of races, but unfortunately.... after 20 minutes or so the issue appeared, the game frozen, audio frozen and hard reset needed :/

Sorry for the delay, i was on holiday. I've tried step #2, but unfortunately didn't help. Fortunately, BSOD appeared this time with this error CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT. Honestly, this is not good :/ I spent some money on this card, I wasn't expecting like 500 FPS in 12K resolution, but restarting everytime when i play 3D games with OOTB settings? This shouldn't happen, right?

Hello,
 
I did two steps you've mentioned - cables are ok, and after increasing voltage, issue still remainded. However, i've disable my 1060, switched to IGFX in BIOS, installed newest Intel Graphics driver, run a game... and issue appeared! So this is probably - as you said - a CPU issue. Do you think increasing VCORE on CPU more would help?

Do you mean 1050 ti? not 1060 ti.

Show me a link for a " gtx 1060 ti" or are you making up your own names? you calling a  6gb version a ti?

Ok, my bad, I meant just SC, without "Ti", guys, let's chill :) case closed!
