Radeon 6770 Keeps crashing my PC while playing games.

[richdog16]

Every time I play games on My PC using a Radeon 6770 graphics card. When my PC crash while playing game I get vertical lines showing on my screen. Is there any way I can fix this??


Note!!: I already updated to the latest drivers and clean my registry using softwares.

What kind of temps are you seeing? Might have some degraded thermal paste, or dust in the fan. Use something like MSI afterburner to monitor temperatures and report back.

Is the fan packed full of dust?

Crashes with artifacting are almost always bad drivers or a failing card.

So, yeah, what's already been said - throughly clean your computer to prevent overheating.

Although I thought (may very well be incorrect) that the 6770 was modern enough to have automatic throttling so it wouldn't overheat?
