    460 GTX, red pixels everywhere.

    This means that it is dying right?

    Or a direct attack from AMD?


    I would first check that the card is not overheating and if the card is overclocked I would reset the clockspeeds to the stock Nvidia ones.

    +1 to that. Another possibility; some of the recent Nvidia drivers(especially beta's) have been rather 'optimistic' in their fan speed settings. I've had to set mine back to manual after the drivers seemed to think 20% was an appropriate fan speed for a card pushing 95c

    Worth checking before going for the RMA. Hope you get it sorted mate.

    Always been running at stock, 30 at idle, 45 under load. Pretty good right?

    Off to RMAland.

    Yeah those temps are absolutely fine, don't think my GPU's been as low as 45c in it's life.

    Good luck with RMA.

    Re: 460 GTX, red pixels everywhere.

    I got a mix of cyan/red before so i shutdown immediately - must of been the cable or something as its all fine now.

    But yah, definite RMA candidate there - which card is it exactly ?

    You're lucky I feel sorry for you, or I wouldn't be able to resist ripping on you for being a Glee fan

    On a constructive note, the few times I've had errors like that it's been the RAM on the GPU that gave up. So I'd deffo say it's hardware fault. Shame, hope you don't get mucked about to much getting it replaced.

    Re: 460 GTX, red pixels everywhere.

    Glee is awesome, I don't know what you are talking about

    The card is Inno GTX 460 768MB.

    The random pixels are worse than they were last night. The strange thing is that I can still play WoW and CoD no problems, no crashes.

    That is strange, oh and so is being able to use your card for gaming still. Wouldn't stop me RMA'ing it though, the fact it's getting worse means gaming will be a no go sooner or later.

    Though, on the strength of that, might be worth re-seating it and checking the cables when you open up the case to return it, just on the off chance, but I'm pretty sure it's dying.

    Re: 460 GTX, red pixels everywhere.

    I bought a AMD HD 5450 from Scan and it promptly arrived today. I can see myself weeping at the bad frame rates soon but until then I think I will burn my GTX 460 a bit long, make sure it is really broke so something silly does happen during RMA e.g. it work perfectly at testing XD

    Re: 460 GTX, red pixels everywhere.

    I see you had 4850 crossfire in your system specs,did you uninstall all AMD drivers for the 4850 and used driver sweeper aswell to delete all evidence of AMD gpu drivers before installing the GTX460 and install drivers?

    Re: 460 GTX, red pixels everywhere.

    Look like the issues I had with my old ati 9700pro a few years back, started out like that, they came and went, esp after long City of Heroes sessions

    Then I started getting spikes caused by missplaced vertices and it kept getting worse untill city of heroes looked like this

    I was also getting corruption on post and BIOS

    RMA that card.

    Re: 460 GTX, red pixels everywhere.

    Well after all that it turns out that it was my monitor that was screw up XD

    I installed the HD5450 and found that I still had the problem! I was like wth. So I double checked the cables and all. Then I thought maybe it is the monitor. Changed the monitor with a spare one and the pixels were gone. Needless to say that the GTX460 in now back in the rig and I shall be sending a emails to Dell now Guess that explains why I was getting any crashes.

    Does anyone know how Dell are at returns? Helpful? Pain in the ass? Slow?
