I’m getting BSOD everytime i turn on the game.

=D Not that BSODs are ever something to be excited about, but I came across this error not too long ago. Its related to your graphics card.

“STOP error 0×116 means that an attempt to reset the display driver and recover from a timeout failed.”

If you’re overclocking your 570, then you have gone too far (it was what happened to me when I got the error for my 560Ti 448).

If you aren’t overclocking your 570…

Install the latest driver for the card from (or reinstall) and make sure to do a clean install. There is a check box during the installation which allows this option.

If that doesn’t help…

Does the BSOD occur immediately after launching the game (before getting to the character screen)?
If so, try playing another relatively intense game and see if you get a BSOD. If you do, then its a sign that your card might have bit the dust.

If it doesn’t BSOD immediately, check your temperatures when the game is lauched to make sure they aren’t boiling water.

Another option to try is to downclock your GPU to see if it just isn’t stable. This can be because some graphics cards come pre-overclocked and might not be stable at those higher frequencies any more.

the BSOD occurs maybe 1-2 min after i enter the game, the temp reaches 50-55C

I can also play Far Cry 3 on max settings with no difficulty what so ever

Yeah, those temperatures are well within the limits of your GPU. I would tackle the reinstall for the driver. Then, try other games and see what happens.

In general, software running on the computer doesn’t cause blue screens. Blue screens are caused by problems at the hardware level by either problems with the physical hardware or by the hardware drivers themselves.

1) Your video card should be your primary focus. Temps are well within norms. Could be an unstable overclock, bad video ram, or even power issues. Set all GPU and Memory clocks to reference specifications and test the video card. I use Heaven Benchmark to test my video card stability. Temps into the mid 80s are not unusual under a full load.

2)If your CPU and/or Memory are overclocked, return those to default settings. Test your CPU stability with Prime95 and Memtest for your memory. Make sure there are no issues there.

3) Check your power supply voltages. You can get inexpensive power supply testers on Newegg, Amazon, or whereever. PSUs do start to go bad despite how big, powerful, or expensive they are. If your video card isn’t getting enough juice from the power supply, you need to know.
