I'll post what I posed at OCN.
literately no BSOD, just black screen shut down and reboots. i can not re install windows as my internet is mad slow, and installing everything again will take months. i have cleaned my entire PC of old drivers via uninstall tool, manually deleting folders and files including cleaning registry, and have used display driver uninstaller. so far this is what i have tested. before my 2 780 tis i had a 780. that card ran PERFECT even when OCed. no issues. i saw the price of the 780 ti drop, so i returned my 780 and got the asus 780 ti. this card constantly crashed. mainly using DSR in the new drivers (something that was not available on the 780 when i had it). i had DSR enabled, but never actually used a higher res. that card clocked poorly too and had high temps. so i returned it and got my current one. again i set up the drivers like i would normally and enabled 1440p and 4k. played BF4 in 1080p and it crashed all the time as soon as the map loaded. playing in other resolutions caused crashing too. when i overclocked in heaven and it became unstable, the system simply crashed like it had been all the time in games. so that got me thinking. i reseated the card, clean uninstalled all drivers, reconfigured everything on all stock setting in drivers. played games and no crash. so i enabled everything but DSR and played games. no crashes (as of now still testing at 1080p native res). as soon as i enabled DSR and launched bf4, it crashed. so i disabled it and started playing in 1080p again. played a BUNCH of games and no issues at 1080p. i now enabled DSR again, and its VERY sporadic to when it crashes. as soon as i start playing in 1440p or 4k, most games crash. exception to a few ( black ops, boarderlands, etc). so i again disabled DSR and created a custom 1440p resolution and played a game, and again it crashed. when i disabled DSR and ran heaven bench until it crashed, the display driver only crashed not the whole PC. when i look in event viewer, it says error 41 loss of power. idk what to make of this. happens on custom bios too. so idk what to really make of this. it seems perfect at normal 1080p with DSR and custom res disabled. reading reviews, ppl are having a lot of crashing issues with this card and other cards 700 series (gigabyte, EVGA, MSI) but no one goes into detail if they are using DSR or higher than 1080p monitors... should i just RMA this card and get my old 780 back?
