Well I've been having some problems over here. Could use some advice...
My specs are in my sig.
My problems first started when I got my new GTX560. I installed it ran some benchmarks and started to play Just Cause 2. About an hour or so into my gaming bliss I heard a loud pop and smelled burnt capacitor smell :shocked:
I went right to the PSU and found the big capacitor leaking it was a Corsair 620W.... Soooo I got a new Coolermaster 700W and everything was fine for a couple months till now.
Now I'm having problems With artifacts. I am getting long triangular artifacts and lines in diffrent colors and sometimes a snow effect. Or it will lock up on me or just crash all together. Google Earth also wont render or crashes/locks it up.
I have updated to newer drivers and it didnt help. Also I didnt see any spikes in GPU temps.
So what do ya think? Do i need more power? or Do I need to RMA my card or something else?
