In dire need of computer aid.
 

Hey guys, recently I've been having some problems with my Radeon HD7970 GFX card. Here are two threads outlining everything that I've been through so far: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/36...ys-headset#bas
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/view...c_id=359029#12

I'm quite lost as to what to do now, and any help in fixing the issue will be greatly appreciated.

Otherwise, I'll be calling the computer company who built my computer tomorrow, I've had endless problems with this computer, and it all seems to be hardware related. Not worth the money haha.

Cheers, Paro.

"I think your card is dying. Contact the manufacturer of your card and see what they think."

He's right. If you ran furtest, which is a graphics card stress test, with new drivers and it crashed then it's a hardware problem. Contact the manufacturer

I just submitted a case with HIS, and I will be contacting the computer company I purchased from in the morning. Hopefully I'll be able to figure something out.

I think your drivers are the main issues i would revert back to the Officla Driver from the Companies Site. however if everything is crashing including sounds from ur headset i would have a look at the motherboard aswell..

If you are having multiple problems and its only a new pc send it back to the place that built it. Was it from a online / retail store? Its up to them to fix it you have done the basics stuff like drivers I wouldn't stress over it.. send it back to them to do.

If you are getting audio distortion as well I think it may be a motherboard problem or possibly power supply

i have the same problem somehow. i cant stream for stupid sake. when i open xsplit after a few min the xsplit will hang because the system says that AMD driver stop working . DAMMIT, i download latest driver also the same shit. stupid radeon. i should invest more on nvdia. goodluck to u ><

Re: In dire need of computer aid.
 

My immediate thought is that given the card crashes at 50degrees and you are having white noise issues that it is a problem with your motherboard (my guess would be a power draw issue as the fan ramps up). However, since you have mentioned that the white noise dissapeared when you rolled back the driver, I tend to think its an issue with the HDMI audio driver for the AMD Radeon Card. Apart from sending it back for a check with the people who built it for you, I would suggest trying to completely wipe the drivers again, reinstall them, but deliberately uncheck the HDMI Audio driver and see if that makes any difference.

I had the exact same problem with my HD7850 =( The thing wouldn't run anything for more than 10 minutes. I ran benchtests and the card was stable @ ~60-70 degrees on full load, so no issues there. What worked for me was a complete system reinstall of everything. Wiped my hard drives clean and started fresh. Now the card actually works but there are still a few issues like an incompatibly with xsplit T.T

The only thing to do it to wait for AMD to release the next set of drivers....which could take a while. Hope this helped.
