Hey Everyone,
I am three days into trying to troubleshooting this GTX560Ti card. The card hangs / crashes the computer while playing COD Black Ops and Homefront. The screen just freezes and the audio loops.
I've tried the drivers that came with the card, the 266.66 and even the beta drivers 270.51 -- the problem is the same... hangs and requires a reboot.
This is my second 560Ti card, I had the same issue with the MSI TwinCoolr card.
There are numerous threads about how to tweak the clocks to get stability, but I don't want to have to downclock my overclocked & expensive video card because I want the performance (advertised).
Specifically on the PNY card. The MSI card ran a lot cooler... this card got up to 82'C when under high load. Within reference parameters, but a little too hot than I am used to. There are a lot of threads on the net saying that hi temp isn't necessarily bad with the new boards , but still seems a little warm for my likes. After it hit 82' the fan kicked up and cooled it below 80 for a while before proceeding to crash.
So to me, a techie, it feels like a driver issue, especially since multiple manufactures of the 560Ti report similar problems (as well as my own experience with both the MSI and the PNY crashing).
So my advice, would be to stay away from this card until NViDIA can make it more stable.
