Guild Wars 2

I had this issue, was crashing to black screen or simply to the desktop every 10min or so during gameplay. My card is MSI 670 GTX OC.

I tried over 6 different drivers from Nvidia, (from the latest beta and worked me way back until I was unable to find older drivers) ran mem test and GPU load test. Monitored the heat on the card to rule out that this was a heat issue.
I can also monitor the power consumption on the card and trust me, that’s not it either.

Then I saw that some people reporting that by underclocking the GPU fixed this issue for them.

So I tried, used MSI Afterburner to bring the card down by 100mhz, and lo and behold, been playing for about 6 hours with no issues at all, the card runs at the same heat as before, so this was not an heat issue, and the power difference is nothing to talk about.

To verify I stopped downclockin the GPU and the issue came back.

I can’t explain it, but downclocking the GPU has worked for me, and its just GW2, I can play any other game full throttle with this card,

Just thougt I put this out here, so if somebody has not tried bringing the card down abit, can try his luck.

best regards.
