Having to run -400mhz on the vram to prevent mine from crashing all the time but I'm hanging in there ๐Ÿฅฒ๐Ÿ‘

Oh that's a odd problem. What do you think caused that?

[โ€“] Coaster45 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought it was driver problems at first because it happened so infrequently, but it has gotten worse this year.

It took ages to narrow it down to memory faults since I've been running stock settings forever. Stumbled upon this tool: https://github.com/GpuZelenograd/memtest_vulkan/

Found a load of errors, which went away after the down clock and it's been stable since. It must be just age related degradation, temps were never high but I know the repeated temp changes have an impact.

Couldn't this be related to psu?

[โ€“] Coaster45 1 points 11 months ago

It could be, I just haven't swapped the PSU around to confirm. The psu is still pretty new and it was working when I first got it

Same problem as mine! I thought I was the only one. Iโ€™m using msi afterburn and tuning down power usage to 90% sigh

[โ€“] Coaster45 1 points 1 year ago

I bumped the power up on mine, I might be wrong but I assumed more power but less speed would allow it to keep stable and it seems to be working so far.

https://github.com/GpuZelenograd/memtest_vulkan/ - was the tool I used to confirm the memory issues. Just need it to hold on till the 50xx series!
