Hello everyone , So been about 2 months im facing a problem that whenever i play or even doing nothing my pc freeze , with a random solid color , sometime buzzing in the speakers and i have to force restart the pc , been searching all over the forums before making this topic , so i hope i can find some help .
PC specs
Motherboard - ASROCK z77 formula OC
Processor - i7 3770k intel
GPU - GTX 780 evga - "3 years ago and out of warranty"
PSU-Cooler master 725 extreme
RAM - 3*4 Hyperx blue
I've narrowed the problem that its in the GPU for sure and here what i've done so far :
I tried to use processor gpu to test if i will get that freeze - got none
I did check each ram in a different slot alone with GTX780 on ... got freezes every single time with every slot and every single RAM
I did borrow another PSU from a friend "thermaltake 720w" got the same freeze
tried another HDD , Got freezes
Have used fresh windows install both 7 and 10 , got freezes
Used different drivers with clean install in safe mode and sweeper "v 385.41 and v 388.71 and v 387.92" and i noticed i get freezes more often with v388.71 driver
ofc i ran memtest86 and checked for bad sector , updated Motherboard's bios
Edit : i never used overclock for the gpu since i bough it , but when the problem started i tried to underclock it a little to see if there is any difference and i got freezes again
So any ideas guys to fix it , and i guess if its dead or not ...
Notice " I live in Egypt and u know there is no Evga branch in egypt to send it there to take a look" and i bough it from amazon online 3 years ago "
Thanks in advance and sorry for bad english
