So I have posted a lot on having the white dots/line issues in some games on certain textures. More recently I posted on having the "Drivers have stopped working and recovered issues"; I solved the latter because my graphic card exploded, and when I put my other 6870 in it stopped. However, I still get the white dots/lines in certain textures and I have done the following to try and solve it: Rollback/update drivers Reformat HDD Memtest - passed 11 hours Prime95 - passed 9 hours Two 6870's - same issue with pixels (one recnetly exploded - driver issue [new one too wtf]) and some other random things. SO........It is either a few things and would like your insight: 1: Bad mobo? 2: Bad PSU (Doubting but can be?) 3. HDD ( again doubting) 4. Games hate amd drivers? Thanks in advance for any insight into my problem. Now I must go yell at newegg for my new card exploding on me.
The fact your gpu "exploded" I wonder if it somehow damaged your pcie slot? Did you try installing your gpu in a different pcie slot to see if that works?
I can try tomorrow, but I am using the same pci slot for the other card w/o the driver error yet. Though will try for pixels I guess. Ty in advance. Also for clarification, I had the white pixels on the pci-slot for the old card before the new one exploded in it. So existing issue which leads me to think motherboard maybe, though I don't know if a motherboard would do that.
