Where to start. I guess I will start by stating I am disappointed in my Stryker rig in sig. This computer just seems to be against me playing multiple games.
-Was crashing on Thief, Crysis 3 and FarCry 3.
-Uninstalled graphics drivers fully, still crashes.
-Set back to stock clocks on cpu
-Still crashes
-checked hard drives no errors
-download new copies of the games
-still crashed
My richland build in my sig will run games without crashing in the least. Really odd that my 600$ rig runs better than my 1400$ rig it is quite frustrating.
Fast forward to today, full reboot of the entire system fresh installs with hard drives fully wiped. All updates done for Windows and all. Reinstall games... Thief was first test - still exiting the game randomly for no reason, no explanation just exits mid game.
Now i await my test for Crysis 3. Thinking I might just give up on this rig and play using my spare rig. I am at a loss to why this would be happening. The only explanation is a hardware failure. But what is most likely? The only component I switched lately was my gpu to a gtx 970 but crysis 3 crashed when I used my gtx 670 as well.
So is it my:
-MOBO - 2 1/2 years old
-PSU - 1 1/2 years old
-CPU - 2 1/2 years old
-GPU - 3 months
?????
I would appreciate some help guys and gals
