Driver issue msi gtx 560 ti hawk

Which driver to use with msi 560 ti hawk currently using 275.33 but after installing battlefield 3 the game freezes in just 5 minutes of the gameplay the game requires latest drivers 285.xx from nvidia should i update to the latest driver from nvidia website.please help guys...

You can upgrade your driver. Test afterwards and see if it made a difference. Is there no patch for BF3 ? Perhaps look on the website

  • MSI GTX 560 TI Hawk Unstable?

    I have a brand new custom built PC with two MSI 560 TI Hawk cards in SLI and I have a problem with playing games on this system. I've tried Portal 2, Far Cry 2, Two Worlds 2 and The Witcher 2. All games seem unstable with comparable problems:
    Random lock-ups for 10-20 seconds with audio looping
    Random small jitters, frame drops and stutters, including audio stutters
    Sometimes my whole system freezes so I have to push the reset button
    Artifacts
    Flickering parts of the horizon, sky or ground in the game
    Sometimes the game runs fine for a few minutes and then the problems start happening, sometimes they are there from the beginning.
    I tried to eliminate possible causes one by one to narrow out the actual problem. Even disabling SLI and running on a single card doesn't help.
    Here are the things I tried:
    Monitor GPU temperatures with GPU-Z: didn't show anything unusual, around 35 degrees idle to 65-70 degrees stressed
    Disable SLI: didn't fix the problem
    Download MSI drivers v266.44 (older version than current NVidia drivers): didn't fix it and I couldn't find the SLI option in these drivers so i switched back to v280.26
    Check driver and firmware version with MSI Live Update 5: everything seemed to be up to date
    Remove graphics cards: cleaning the connections and re-installing, didn't fix it
    Stress the cards with FurMark: no issues detected and temperatures seemed normal (70 degrees stressed)
    Lower the stock clock speed (950 Mhz) to the standard non-overclocked speed (822 Mhz): this seemed to help at first and the problems didn't occur for a while. But while i'm testing right now Portal 2 froze and stuttered a few times again. Although it seems like it happens less often. So this might be a clue to my problem. Anyway I didn't pay extra money for these overclocked cards to underclock them back to standard so I would like to make the cards run on stock settings (950 Mhz).
    Here are my system specifications:
    Processor: Intel Core i7 2600K 3.4 Ghz (stock speed)
    Mainboard: Asus P8Z68 V-Pro
    Memory: 2x Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 CL9 12800 Mhz
    SSD: Crucial M4 256GB SSD
    HDD: 2x WD Caviar Blue - Raid 0
    Graphics: NVidia Geforce GTX 560 TI Hawk 1GB SLI
    PSU: Corsair TX750 V2 (750 watt)
    I hope you can help me to fix this issue because I'm out of ideas right now....
    Thanks in advance

    Well I've tried some more things but it's all still very weird and not helping at all   I will explain my findings in the order i tested the cards this time, after every card-switch i did a clean re-install of the VGA drivers:
    Card-2
    I've ran the OCCT test for one hour on card-2, i got zero errors and temperature never went above 76 degrees with a fan speed around 68%. After this i tried testing some games again and I found out there were still problems regardless of me saying that card-2 did fine before. In Portal 2 I was leaving the game on for a while and after a few minutes it froze with audio looping. I found out that when I use ctrl+alt+del to go to the task manager and then go back to the game it recovered and I could continue playing (weird??!). The same thing happened with The Witcher 2, freezing with audio loop and going to task manager and back let me continue playing. This happened every few minutes.
    Card-1
    Now it was time to try card-1 again. This time this card didn't seem to have the frequency problems I mentioned before but the problems didn't go away. Portal 2 let the game freeze within a minute, and I could use the same strategy (task manager) to continue, but this time after a few seconds it would freeze again and again. The same happened with The Witcher 2. Then I tried Far Cry 2 and this game had the same flickering problems as with card-2 but a lot worse... it was almost everywhere. Even sometimes the flickering had a checkerboard kind of shape. Now I ran the OCCT test with this card and there were no problems. Another strange thing was that when I was looking at the graph after the test, the temperature was much lower (65 degrees) and the graph line of the framerate was very straight (stable) along the test. This was different than with card 2 where the framerate and temp were higher and not so stable.
    After all it appears i have comparable problems with both cards, only with card-1 they are much worse.

  • Re: MSI GTX 560 Ti HAWK Memory Temperature too high???

    wow, it was quick =)
    Temperature looks OK.
    Thanks once more.

    Dear MSI Support & all guys
    I bought a new gtx 960 but after i boot my pc sometimes it shows no display on monitor...sometimes it shows till windows loading but after that no display on monitor...i had worked out a temporary solution. When that happens...

  • PSU for MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK in SLI ?

     Do you know what psu should i get for 2 MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK?

    Depends what other components your system consists of. >>Posting Guide<<
    But here is the link to the recommended PSU for such a combo. https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/power-requirements-for-graphics-cards
    A 42A PSU is suggested. Thus a Corsair TX650 will suffice but to leave you with additional overhead you could opt for a Corsair TX750. The Corsair PSUs have single 12V rails which are recommended and have an above average reliability and build quality.

  • Fixing temps issues GTX 560 TI HAWK

    1) make a good air flow for the VGA, putting air from the ground, ejecting up the hot air, put a fan in the middle of the card( case )
    2) download AFTERBURNER 2.1.0, NOT THE BETA
    and set this values
    1025 CORE TEMP
    880 clock speed
    2100 ram speed
    check with AIDA 64 the GPU AMBIENT ( RAM TEMP OF THE CARD ) and check the voltages.
    please, if somebody have this problem with the GTX 560 TI HAWK, try do this, in my computer i found a bug with the voltages in the beta afterburner
    5 weeks ago i buy this card, and my problem with this card is the temp, so changin this values, i found a stable configuration to my card, now iam having a max temp of 68º with 20 city ambient temp, and 71º ( average 69) with 30º of city ambient.
    please, only use afterburner 2.1.0, if u use the beta, check the voltage value in the AIDA64 if is the same of default clock, the beta is working bad
    good luck
    PD: for more info, see my threads and posts, all my history with this card is there, and gonna help more of one.

    oh, and another tip to fix the IDLE temps
    if u have a two monitors the VGA gonna work with high clock, and without power saving mode, if u use one monitor, u gonna see a temps of 28/32º
    if u wanna a fast fix to the air flow case to check the temps, u can use a big fan

  • BF3 crashes every 5 mins - GTX 560 TI HAWK FROZR III

    So Battlefield 3 looks great on this card but it crashes all the time.  Nice and random.  Drivers are up to date and the MSI auto bios system doesn't find any new ones.  However, I hear the auto system doesn't work.  Trying to get help to see why this is happening and if it does need a bios update.  Card is about 3 months old.

    So everything looks good as far I as I can tell.  I'm running BF3 settings a little below high.  Game runs smooth with low temps.  Highest I've seen so far is 51C but I haven't been able to play longer than 15 minutes in a row.
    Any thoughts

    is your compueter stable if you use another video card?
    have you tested this video card in another computer?
    My system is stable and so is BF3 with other cards.  I upgraded to this card from a 9800 MX2, and that plus my 4 gigs of ram would play the game fine at low-medium for hours on end.
    I have tested the card in another computer but not with BF3.  I may be able to do that later this week.
    Any other thoughts?  Does my bios look right?
    Edit:  Just tried exact reference clock settings with 100% fan, still only lasted 5 minutes.

  • RMA question gtx 560 ti HAWK

    if the card, can work with the default clocks ( high temps ) i should rma the card? for example at 1025 core voltage i have to use the clock at 880 and not the default 950, if i put in 1062 with 880 core clock or 950 core clock, i have high temps in memory temp ( 100+) and gpu temp (80+ in 3 minutes )
    and fan coolers at 80+ in SILENT mode

    Quote from: Svet on 23-December-11, 02:19:13
    switch to Peformance BIOS, also open PC case side door and retest
    i tested that without side door even out of case and no major difference in temperatures!and also performance bios didnt help here is my furmark test with open side cover (80 in 6 mins ~5000 RPM):
    i tested mafia 2 and almost same old results
    as i said before reseller warranty company tested (out of case) and reached 80!with 100% fan~4400 RPM!obvious high temp and noisy for HAWK right?i really dont think its about air flow or ambient temp!
    so could you please admit that this high temp and noisy Fan(+ that weird memory temp) is a problem and i can replace my VGA with new one with normal temperatures like this :
    http://www.guru3d.com/article/msi-geforce-gtx-560-ti-hawk-review/8
     then according to you i send back the VGA for replacement and if you say 80-90 is normal for a gtx 560 Ti HAWK and wont be any problem so my bad !
    thank you Svet

  • MSI GTX 560 ti & bf3

    Hi,
    I've had a look around the forums and seen quite a lot of other people with the same problems whereby battlefield 3 can run for a while and then it crashes with a choppy noise and i'm having to restart the pc.
    Apparently the BIOS update is the solution for other makers of the card but we don't seem to have one and I think i'm up to date:
    Display device       : MSI N560GTX Ti Twin Frozr II on GF114 GPU
    Display driver       : ForceWare 285.62
    BIOS                 : 70.24.11.00.00
    GUID                 : VEN_10DE&DEV_1200&SUBSYS_23821462&REV_A1&BUS_1&DEV_0&FN_0
    *EDIT* I've just read in another thread that altering the voltage to 1.062 and the clock speeds to 820 and 2000 mhz are the solution so i'm going to try this now and see whether I crash
    *EDIT 2* Nope, crashed even quicker this time :/

    Yea probably should've read the posting guide before posting sorry,
    Here's my specs:

  • Msi GTX 560 Twin Frozr II - Problem

    Hey folks,
    Im having a problem with my Msi GTX 560 Twin Frozr II video card.
    I can't make it work with my monitor, all I get is "No signal detected"
    I know the monitor is fine, because I used it as it worked all good when I plugged it into
    my laptop. It's a BenQ G2222HDL monitor btw. It has one VGA (D-sub) and one Dvi-D input.
    So i've tried all types of cables (VGA, Dvi-D and even Hdmi cables), and
    still, can't get no signal. What can I possibly do to make things work?
    Also, my computer acts a bit wierd when it's starting up. Usually, I would turn it on, then it would turn itself off really quick. Then I turn it on again,
    and it goes just fine and runs smoothly. After I changed the position of some RAM modules
    and such, it changed. Now when I turn it on, the fans spin for 1 and there's just a tiny bit of noise until
    it turns itself off. Then I turn it on again, and it goes just fine with all fans and stuff spinning.
    So, I really need some help!

    More background info; I build the computer myself. Everything went mostly fine, except for that I had to spend quite a long time to get everything right.
    I started the machine, and it all went just fine (except for rebooting and then running smoothly, as it has done ever since). I did the MemOK! test and everything seemed to be fine. But when using the VGA cable that came with the monitor, I couldn't get any signal detected (I used a VGA to DVI adapter to plug the VGA cable into the Msi 560 TI videocard). I used 2 different adapters, but nothing happened. I tried with a HDMI cable, just to test, and that did not work either. Then, I figured out I should order a DVI-D cable.
    So I ordered the cable, and went on to plug it into my monitor and my video card, no adapters needed. Still, no signal at all! Tried a different monitor to check if it was the monitor's fault. Nope, still no signal. Frustrated, I used the VGA cable again and tried to plug the monitor into the laptop, which worked just fine. A clear, bright image appeared. But not with my desktop computer with the Msi GTX 560 Twin Frozr II. Nothing works when I plug in the cables etc. No signal at all, although the computer itself seems to run just fine with fans spinning up and the different components making noise etc. Thus, I figured out there probably was something wrong with my Msi Geforce GTX 560 TI Twin Frozr II. Now I dont really know what to do.
    Does anyone have an answer/advice/possible solution to my problem? I'm getting a tad frustrated now, seeing as I bought this computer 2 weeks ago and still haven't got to use it yet.

  • MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II - Heat sink and chipset heat sink come into contact

    Pretty much what the title says. There is a small heat sink on my GTX 560 which comes into contact with one of the motherboard's heat sinks. The card slipped right in PCI slot without any problems and is working.
    However, I'm concerned about heat transfer. Could the card heat up the motherboard's heat sink or the other way around?
    This is the small card's heat sink.
    Top view.
    Closeup. I guess the surface that makes contact is not so much.
    PS: I'm sorry for the poor quality of the photos.

     Contact MSI tech support about that issue and see what they have to say about it. You are the 2nd on this forum to ask about it and the only thing I can suggest is trimming the heat sink on the MB or video card but doing so to either one could possibly void the warranty.

  • Should I get an MSI GTX 560 Ti 448 Twin Frozr III?

    I'm thinking of upgrading my graphics card and obviously I'm looking to get one that'll go well together with Premiere (CS 5.5). For now, I've set my sights on the MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Twin Frozr III 1280 MB. I'm especially attracted to this card, as from my research it should be particularly quiet in desktop use, which is essential to me. Would this be a good choice, or should I be looking at GTX 570 for instance, or a card with more memory?

    Arve,
    I appreciate the effective and quiet cooling provided by MSI's non-reference designs. I don't have the exact card you mention, but have a system with a MSI GTX 460 Hawk (twin fans, similar to the Frozr design) and it performs WAY quieter than the GTX 260 reference card I had prior to that. I would not be worried at all regarding noise and cooling with 120mm case fans. When comparing how much air 120mm fans can move to clear video card (and CPU) heat from your case vs. the reference GTX cards pushing air through a VERY tiny space, you can expect quieter and more effective cooling with the Frozer. The only possible caveat that I can think of with the Frozr is that you need at lease 1/2" of space in front of both fans so that air can easily enter the fans. If you have a motherboard / PCIe situation where you need to put a card immediately next to the Frozr, then you should go with a reference design; I suspect that gamers wanting 2, 3, or even 4 video cards running in SLI has a lot to do with why the various "big fan" designs are not more common in the market.
    Additional to the cooling subject being discussed so far, there is another Newegg listed GTX 560Ti listed with less cores but 2GB of video RAM. Depending on if you ever edit anything with large frame needs such as large photos in video slide shows or RED 4k, etc., possibly the larger video buffer would be more advantageous to you system than the one you mention above that has a slightly higher core count.
    Jim

  • MSI GTX 560 Ti - Frozr II - SERIOUS PROBLEMS

    I have struggling with this card since buying it. 
    On a brand new PC install with Windows 7 64-bit, there are artifacts all over the place. 
    Doesn't matter if I use nVidia's latest official drivers, nVidia's beta drivers, or fall back to MSI's drivers for the card.  (Yes, I do clean installs, removing old drivers and even running ccleaner between boots and installs to be sure everthing is gone)
    Games like WoW and BF3 or unplayable.  There are also artifacts in IE 8.0 when web browsing.
    From MSI and nVidia's forums - this problem is not unqiue to me, hundreds, if not thousands of people are reporting the same problems.
    Some preople report the only fix that has worked for them is driving the card's default lock speed from the 880 OOB to 775 - that didnt seem to work for me using MSI utility.
    This is clearly a serious design/driver issue which MSI and nVidia seem unable to address.
    I will look for recommendations before dumping this card, asking for a refund, and moving to ATI's products.

  • MSI GTX 560 TI OC Twin Frozr II - High Temperature !!!

    Hi, I'm italian, then excuse me if my english is bad. I bought an MSI gtx560ti OC and I've installed it on my pc just three days ago. this is my problem:
    in IDLE the gpu temp is ok: 33°celsius (T° in my room is 25°)
    in FULL with FURMARK stress test the gpu temp is next to 85° after two minutes of stress!!! I read on internet and on the vga's pack that the right temp is next to 68° in FULL !!
    what can I do to solve the problem??? My case is big and there is a 12cm fan on the panel in front of vga..

    as said above, furmark isn't a very reliable test.
    also videocards my act very differently one from another and since your results are still acceptable you shouldnt worry. there are quite a few other cases on this forum with the same "problem" that, as we said, it is not really a big deal.
    in my opinion all that difference in heat between the 560ti's is the stock voltage, some cards have more, some less but it translates in lower/higher temperatures. My gtx 560-ti Twin Frozr II OC for example acts exactly like yours, it's a 1.025 mV stock. I have to bump it up to 1.100mV if i want a stable overclock. However you can always tune a few things end get better temperatures and noise levels. i wrote a post about it not too long ago:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=151819.0
    my last post explains how i managed it.

  • Just Cause 2 nvidia driver crash MSI GTX 580 OC SLI (video)

    I found a bug that crashes the nvidia drivers when running the factory overclocked msi gtx 580's in SLI. I downclocked them to reference 772,1544,2004 and found the game runs perfectly for long periods without crashing.

    Quote from: pacnow on 17-February-11, 07:23:31
    I tested the first card I purchased the non stickered one, and running at factory overclock it crashed the driver about 20 minutes of gameplay.
    What I did differently this time was I removed the Stickered card from the PCIE slot.
    Wow amazing I didn't think it could be a single cards fault. I'll continue testing the stickered one too. What I did find strange was this non stickered card core values show 822 in MSI Afterburner and 823 in GPUZ.
    What you mean by "stickered" and "non stickered" card?

    that's suppose to be.
    When you locate which one of your card is crashing.
    Use/install this[latest] AB version 2.1.7:
    http://event.msi.com/vga/afterburner/downloads/MSIAfterburnerSetup210Beta7.zip
    then go to settings, and unlock voltage monitor and voltage control.
    then restart the AB, and click on reset
    then see and tell what's the vcore shown for it
