Good news and Bad news

[WhitehawkEQ]

Well I'll start with the good news, my GTX 980 is not broke, problem was it was only folding at 405MHZ, I thought part of it got burned out or something like that. Turned out to be corrupted drivers, I some times have power outages and I think the video drivers got mangled. So I on a whim I re-installed the drivers and all is good.
Now for the bad new, Don, I'll pass you sooner now and Jr, say goodby to my name on your conquest list

You got lucky that it's just the drivers! I had similar symptoms with an eVGA GeForce GTX 660 Ti and it was because of a wrong video BIOS. It would be at clocks like that in Heaven!
(The buddy who gave it to me flashed an Asus BIOS to it!) (TechPowerUp to the rescue!)
