Card is working perfectly fine and have been on all driver versions. I haven't tried updating with no drivers. I might do it as a last resort if all other options fails.

I installed the windows debugger tool to read my crash dumps: here are the results for my last 4 BSOD crash dumps: So it looks like a display driver error, although I have already tried to change GPU driver versions and it made no difference.

I tried 2 different set of memory sticks, which both checked out fine in Memtest86 so I doubt that is the issue.

no component store corruption detected was the response.

Went back to an older driver: 334.89 WHQL(Feburary), no luck either. I tried 2 times(each time it would BSOD then try to rollback the update and restore, last time I had to boot in safe mode to undo the update). Error codes for my last 3 tries, the same BSOD as all previous tries:

Have not, will give it a shot when I have time tonight.

Event viewer just shows that the shutdown was unexpected and the update failed.

I built the system myself I will give bluescreenview a shot. If the drivers are a cause then the one guilty might be my GTX 780's driver (335.23 WHQL) as I did encounter one Nvlddmkm BSOD when Windows trys to recover itself after the page fault BSOD. Any specifc reason why it pops up only when...

Since April 17th I have been trying to update my computer to Windows 8.1 Update (from Win 8.1). However every time(5 times) I try this I face the Page fault in nonpaged area BSOD on the reboot after installation of updates. I have to restore my pre-update images and retry, but every time I just...

Disable the IGPU and the overall Motherboard+CPU TDP should remain the same between Haswell and Ivy, remember that part of the TDP increase is the on-die VRM which means on-Motherboard VRM TDP/power loss is lower.

Simpler/Cheaper than that, Tweak the Bios to use S2 instead of S3 as the default sleep state. Plus from the leaks so far the early Haswell Mobiles are the Quad core HT parts with 47/57W TDP that go in Gaming Laptops/Desktop Replacements so Battery life won't be the no.1 concern of those users.

Hareware info just confirmed this. It would be helpful for the Motherboard manufacturer to label the Mobos with the C2 stepping Chipset as R2 or Rev.2.

Source Sorry didn't see the other post on this topic, please delete. So in the last 4 Intel CPU releases: SB: P67 SATA Bug & Recall SB-E: C2 stepping Ivy: TIM under the IHS Haswell: This Stream of Bad Luck or Intel slipping on QC? I personally don't think this is a serious issue as Anand...

I call 2 FPS a large margin partially because the difference in cost, so I should rephrased that as "a large margin in performance/$" as some would consider a $300+ CPU losing to a competitor's $200 chip by any margin an embarrassing defeat.

It seems in this game Intel 8T is not scaling as well as AMD 8 cores given that FX-8350 beats 3770K by a large margin in performance per dollar. I wonder if the game is not as well coded for HT as it is for AMD cores. Otherwise Intel need to considering bringing hexacore down to mainstream to...
