    Are you using the stock cooling? I would take off the heatsink and check for good contact. I've had 2 older cards that acted like yours both had issues with the HSF not getting good contact.

    Yes, the mod works but it's for OCP (Over current protection) which kicks in waay before OVP.

    A really easy way to check if it may be a heat issue is to turn off your computer for a few minutes to let the card cool down. Then fire it back up and start a bench loop. Time it to see how long it takes to artifact. After you've timed it from a cold boot try it with the card already warmed up. If it artifacts quicker when warm you know you have a heat issue.
