Just ran Unigine Valley for ~1 hour and it kept framerates between 75 and 120 on ultra w/ 8x MSAA. Card didn't break 51C. I think the GPU is fine.
So far today I haven't experienced the issue again after a few modifications. I switched to the default Windows 10 theme and everything seemed...
Okay thanks, I'll look through the monitor settings.
I ran prime95 blended test for 9 hours today with no issues. Seems RAM and CPU are fine. Now to test GPU.
I will look into changing display port/HDMI protocol.
I ran memtest86 overnight (~7 hours) and it ran 4 full passes with zero issues. Is this enough time to effectively rule out memory issues?
I am currently running prime95 while at work. I watched it for the first hour and temps stayed...
I'm not sure you can just disable the display port on a monitor like that...
My LG monitor has only HDMI and VGA, as it is older.
Another update to testing:
Today I ran Prime95 and FurMark. When I ran the Prime95 blended test (lots of ram tested), I started the test and immediately started...
The results of monitor tests:
Only ASUS 144Hz monitor plugged in:
No flickering, ever
Only LG IPS monitor:
No flickering, ever
Both monitors:
Pretty bad flickering on ASUS
Occasional, rare flicker on LG monitor
If I unplug my LG monitor's HDMI cable and plug it in, the flicker stops on both...
In light of not wanting to sound like an idiot after your first post flexy, I failed to mention that I had already replaced the graphics card with an EVGA model. It arrived today. It has Samsung GDDR5 memory.
I am having the exact same issues as with the MSI card(s) but now more frequent...
No offense taken, haha. I went crazy with replacements because Amazon is extremely easy to exchange parts with, and before I found out this micron memory issue, I was unable to properly diagnose it myself.
Good thing to know I can just increase voltage and fix the problem for the time being...
Okay, so I'm not sure if anyone cares but I finally found the issue. Apparently many of the 1070 manufacturers started using Micron GDDR5 memory in their graphics cards in lieu of Samsung. Apparently my issue is known to occur with micron memory not being optimized. There SHOULD be a firmware...
I am now thoroughly confused.
I replaced the motherboard and graphics card. Amazon for the win on same day shipping and no hassle replacements!
However, my monitor is again flickering. New PSU as well. I don't really know where to go from there. I have seen the flickering on both monitors...
Okay thank you.
I put the card in the second slot of the motherboard and so far it has not had any issues. I'm beginning to believe the motherboard PCI slot is the issue. Memory tests came up with no issues. I'm going to replace the motherboard and hope it resolves all issues. I also found...
Okay! It doesn't look like it's drooping I just didn't know if that was common practice.
Is there any chance this could be CPU related?
Forgot to mention I have an i5 6600k
Another question- this card is very heavy. It has a thick backplate to keep it sturdy but is there anything else I should be doing to keep the card supported? Maybe extra stress on the PCI slot is causing communication issues?
Good idea. Running the memory test now but in the morning I'll try that. It seems weird to me that furkmark wouldn't cause issues but after stopping the test it would get really bad.
Hi,
I have a brand new (2 week old) MSI GTX 1070 Gaming 8GB. It has worked great since I got it, but yesterday I started intermittently getting horizontal black and white lines flickering across the screen. It was only occurring on one of my monitors (ASUS 144Hz 1080p), so I switched out the...
