EVGAPrecisionX OSD crashes gw2

I have not had problems with the PrecisionX OSD, but maybe there is a specific setting you are using that causes the problem. What are you monitoring in your OSD?

I am runing PrecisionX version 3.0.4 and Nvidia drivers 310.90 for a GeForce GTX 660ti. I am monitoring GPU clock, GPU temp, and framerate. No graphing is displayed. Have you tried dialing the OSD back and see if that helps?

My wife’s GW2 will crash on startup if the PrecisionX window is maximized for some reason, minimizing it prevents that. GW2 always crashes for me when Mumble is running, I just start it up after launch.

Edit: What are your RivaTuner (the OSD program itself) settings? Have you tried Stealth Mode?

Craft your highest level insignia and combine it with two of your highest level crafting components (like the two glove parts). This is a form of discovery and will teach you a new recipe and grant great crafting EXP. Only use insignia in discovery and for gear you intend to use, the materials are too costly otherwise.

Also only use the insignia discovery when you cannot gain EXP from other means, like refinement of raw materials.

Voice of the Mad King?

I agree with Account, I heard John Lithgow the first time the Mad King spoke. The Sheogorath (Wes Johnson?) voice is the ghost pirate in the Lion’s Arch jump puzzle I think.

Anyone else not able to open chests in the Labyrinth??

I saw no need for an adjustment, I was in the labyrinth for a few hours and it was fun. I was able to get 3 exotics, non of them any use, and non of the mad king’s set. Now I have a small chance at a useless exotic once a day?

Crash/Black Screen Issue (NVIDIA)

Like Eld, I have two nearly identical systems and only one has the black screen/crash issue. More specifically the screen will go black and the sound will die, eventually the sound comes back glitchy then clears up then the screen comes back with nearly zero frame rate. Lately the issue is crashing the system requiring a hard reset.

System One (has the problem)
CPU: i5-3570k standard clock 3.4ghz
Mobo: Asus P8 Z77-V LE Plus
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LP 8GB DDR3 1600
GPU: EVGA Geforce GTX 660ti SC (Clocked with Precision X)
OS: Win 7 HP 64-bit
HDD: Corsair Force 120GB SSD

System Two (no problem)
CPU: i7-3770k standard clock 3.5ghz
Mobo: Asus P8 Z77-V LE Plus
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LP 8GB DDR3 1600
GPU: EVGA Geforce GTX 660ti SC (Clocked with Precision X)
OS: Win 7 HP 64-bit
HDD: Corsair Force 120GB SSD

Both run similar but different USB audio headsets.

The main difference is the CPU, i5 versus i7 but the same class. Also System two is running dual monitors. Both systems have the same drivers and other software installed, both are fresh builds about two weeks ago. Both use the Precision X software that comes with EVGA cards to dynamically clock and monitor GPU performance. Precision X will upclock the GPU if it determines it is safe to do so and will downclock as needed, it seems to work very well. The system with the problem never gets above 60 degrees Centigrade at the GPU. I am not running any frame rate limits on either system. Besides the CPU and dual monitors I can not figure out any real differences that would cause this issue on one and not the other.
