I actually posted this in the GPU nvidia forum, but thought this might be the better place for it since it may be a PSU issue?
My specs are in my sig, but I'm getting acquainted with the 560 ti S/C. When I play a DVD in the optical drive, all looks and plays good for awhile (few minutes usually). Then it's like the video suddenly went into slow motion.
Sometimes it will be brief, sometimes it will stay in a slow motion state or even freeze. I have also had the screen go black for a moment (both during a video, and while doing other things on the computer without a video playing).
I called EVGA technical support. They had me reboot in the bios, and look at the voltage of the 12v rail. It's at 11.904, and every so often (15-30sec) it will flicker up to 12.000. Technical support said they suspect an issue with the PSU.
Does this sound reasonable?
I'm running the latest Beta driver, holding GPU temps from 30-40c (Usually closer to the 30c range). I'm also have the CPU OC'd to 4.5. Had no issues after 3hrs of Prime95. I've now unclocked with bios back to default to see if it makes a difference, but I still see the same voltage and flux in the 12v rail.
