If I used my video card for about 4 hours I notis that in game the frame rate will just drop from 60 fps to 5 and the temps are only abuot 50 C.
On MSI afterburner it says the clock speeds have droped alot and when I try to rase them nothing happens.
Help?
is your driver up to date? (NOT the CD from the box) if not, download and install the newest driver. or even try a beta driver, they sometimes work
How do I uninstall the old driver?
go into control panel -> programs and features -> look for anything NVIDIA or PhysX and uninstall those. Goto NVIDIA's website and download the newest driver.
OKay It said my drivers were the current ones so I don't think it's the drivers.
What else could be causeing this?
BTW I have a 500 WATT PSU.
What are your full PC specs? I might be able to better determine the problem then.
Intel i5 3.6 GHZ
Zotac GTX550 ti
1tb harddrive
windows 7 64bit
8gb ram
Unknown motherbored.
Also 500WATT Psu.
80PLUS.
Anyone?
If the card is still in warranty, I would RMA it. If not, try to sell it maybe and get a new one?
Yeah, sounds to me like you have a faulty card. I too have a 550ti (EVGA) and a 500 Watt PSU (Corsair) and mine works perfectly fine. I'd recommend sending it in.
Sorry for super old bumb but i fixed it.
It was just an unstable overclock. :P
that'll do it.
