EVGA 560ti GPU Artifacting

[ShortCircuited]

Ran a mats GPU memory test (attached) on this GPU (EVGA 560ti).

Not sure which modules are experiencing the write errors...Guessing M1 and M4 but not sure. Bad arifacting and showing error (properly identified) in device manager.

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

Re: EVGA 560ti GPU Artifacting

Don't take my words for it, but according to how most people map it, your faulty chips should be the two ones right below the two silver/blue capacitors. Almost every day on the internet you see new cases of these Fermi based graphics cards developing artifacts. Not so long ago my GTX 580 developed artifacts too, it had hynix memory as well. I have another GTX 580 with Samsung memory, that one is still fine. Would be great if you upload a picture of how those artifacts look. Does your PC crash and restart when you try to boot into Windows normally or when you try to install the Nvidia driver and only works in safe mode?

Are you getting an error from an application about failing to initialize Direct3D or similar, while in the middle of a game and then the game terminates? That's classic of the GPU core not being stable.
