GTX 680: Screen dips to black

Does anyone have a similar exsperience with the GTX 680, 4Gb card:
1. When scrubbing, the image in the composition windows will frequently dip to black  momentarily - leaving only the layer wireframe placeholders - as though it's having difficulty keeping up with the demands made upon it.
2.  When adding/removing nodes to a mask using the pen tool, the image dips to black for a second or so after each node is added/deleted - leaving visible only the mask path.
This was not a feature of the recently removed Quadro FX3800, 1GB card.
I have tried various preview modes - but to no avail.
It's irritating to say the lease!
Thanks.

Yes I am, Dave, thanks, and no it's not that. 
Preview mode is set to adaptive resolution and the timeline updates as I scrub, but intermittently the content across all layers will cut out visually for a second or so - showing only the coloured inverted "V" image place markers.  The image returns the moment I stop scrubbing.  
I would expect the image to pixellate to a lower resolution whilst scrubbing - if it can't update fast enough - but it doesn't appear to do so. 
Also, this doesn't explain the behaviour when using the pen tool (oultined above)....
As I said, this was not a Quadro FX3800 issue.
As an aside, In Adobe Forums, the text entry panel on my PC has started to display in Times Roman all of a sudden, but changes to the correct display font when posted. It's fine on my Laptop and iPad. 
Am I having another senior moment?

  • Bootcamp Black Screen iMac 27" (Late 2012) GTX 680 Drivers?

    This is easy, same problem for everyone.
    Using bootcamp to install windows 7 from an .iso in a USB (just because there is no DVD drive anymore on the iMac), after restart the imac a black screen come up and nothing happen.
    I think this is because the drivers for the GTX 680 MX 2GB is missing on the USB.
    Where to get them and how to fix this problem?
    the solution that apple has right here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3173 it doesn't work at all, just because the driver that you download from there is for an ATI Graphic card.
    How to fix this please.
    I bought this very expensive imac because it is so powerfull and I want to use designing software with windows and use at the same time mac OS.
    Please don't tell me about Parallels or VMware xD.
    Thanks a lot

  • Sudden video crashes/black screen flashing with MSI GTX 680 + MSI GT 640 (PhysX)

    I've been running an MSI GTX 680 Lightning + MSI GT 640 (dedicated PhysX) setup since last September with excellent results. Most of my Steam games would crash in less than 10-15 minutes before I added the 640.
    Just this week, however, I've noticed a new and different problem. While playing several different games, the monitor randomly flashes black, then the game stutters and finally my whole system crashes. I've never seen this before. The only thing that seems to correct the problem is to scale back the resolution from 2560x1600 to 1920x1200 or even 1280x800.
    The problem seems to be getting worse. Now, while doing anything on my PC, the system freezes briefly, the screen rapidly goes black, then turns back on and system unfreezes. This happens 3-5 times in a cycle then stops. The cycle repeats every few minutes and happened twice while typing this post.
    I've got the latest graphics and other component drivers installed. All diagnostics say the video cards are working properly, but these problems persist.
    Are these indications of failing video cards? Any/all suggestions appreciated.
    My system specs: MSI GTX 680 Lightning 2GB, MSI GT 640 1GB (dedicated PhysX), i5-2500K, Asus P8Z77-V, Coolermaster V8, 16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600, 4TB storage, Corsair HX1000, Dell 3008WFP, Windows 8 Pro 64-bit.

    First of all remove the GT640 so we can check if the issue is solely related to the GTX680. Then monitor temps in load and idle using Afterburner (>>How to use MSI Afterburner<<)
    If problem presists when not using the GT640 remove current drivers in safe mode using >>Driver Fusion<< and install latest MSI driver (http://www.msi.com/product/vga/N680GTX-Lightning.html#/?div=Driver&os=All). Yes, I know that driver is older than Nvidia one but it is a surely working one with the special MSI design and features.

  • GTX 680 Lightning now crashes to RED screen after RMA from March 2013

    I had a GTX 680 Lightning crashing problem that required an RMA replacement back in March. Here's the thread I started about it: https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=167822.msg1228389
    Well, now I get a RED screen crash/restart every time I start any game. It happens within a few seconds to a few minutes, but it's consistent regardless of the game I play. Could this be another bad 680 after only 3 months?
    My system specs: MSI GTX 680 Lightning 2GB, MSI GT 640 1GB (dedicated PhysX), i5-2500K, Asus P8Z77-V, Coolermaster V8, 16GB Corsair Vengeance 1600, 4TB storage, Corsair HX1000, Dell 3008WFP, Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.

    Red screens are usually caused by software isuues. First remove any monitoring software (like Afterburner) and retry. If no help try uninstalling current driver in safemode using >>Driver Fusion<< and power down. Remove the GT640 out of your system and restart. Install Nvidia driver and retry. For driver use the known good MSI driver 306.97: http://www.msi.com/service/download/driver-19780.html

  • Help flashing UEFI bios for my GTX 680 Twin Frozr III 2GD5/OC

    Hi,
    I am very new to flashing graphics card bios, so i need some instructions as to how to update my bios to the latest UEFI GOP version. I am using a Z77 platform with Windows 8 Pro and I'm looking forward to the super fast boot times
    Here is my current bios file: **http://www.filehosting.org/file/details/434943/GK104.rom**
    Here is my serial number: 602-V282-020B1205147435
    My model: MSI GTX 680 Twin Frozr III 2GD5/OC
    Thank you

    I have followed the steps you said, but had a few hiccups on the way:
    1) when i was flashing the rom, i was told in the command line dialog box that the pci vendor identification/verification was mismatched, i was prompted to override verification and i pressed "y". Is that ok ? In total, i had to press "y" 2 times as opposed to once as said in your instructions.
    2) After flashing bios, I restarted and disabled CSM (compatibility mode) support. My PC booted fine and i reached the lock screen. But when i entered the password, I was introduced to a black screen with only the cursor showing over it. Then my pc crashed with the error IRQ_NOT_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO
    3) I restarted and logged back again, but was introduced to the same black screen again, but i could gain access to the control panel with CLT+ALT+DEL and it was filled with error reporting tasks. I restarted the third time and finally could log back in without any crashes or black screens, but windows came up with a prompt that it had run into an error and needs to report it.
    I am suspecting that it had something to do with the driver or the verification.
    PLEASE HELP. Thanks

  • GTX 680 Issue

    Recently I had my GTX 680 Twin Frozr sent for an RMA due to a faulty fan. The card came back and it started showing graphical artifacts when gaming (happens occasionally), today I couldn't use it at all, every 10-20 seconds the screen will freeze and when it comes around I'll get this message "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, Version 331.82 stopped responding and has successfully recovered." After a few more crashes I'll just get a black screen and have to restart the PC. I've reformatted my PC but the issue persist.  Should I send my card for another RMA or is it driver related?
    PC Specs:
    - Proc.: i5 3570k
    - MainBoard: ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
    - RAM: 4GB DDR3 (x2)
    - GPU: GTX 680 Twin Frozr (2GB)
    - PSU: Seasonic X-760
    - OS  : Windows 7 x64 Ultimate
    Managed to get a screen shot of the artifact (Playing DayZ)
    Picture of the error message

    Try removing current drivers in safemode using >>Driver Fusion<< and installing latest driver after reboot. If no help the new card seems to be defective too and you have to rma again, sorry.

  • Ref GTX 680 2nd DVI port stopped working

    I'm having trouble with my GTX 680 second DVI port. It seems to register that it's connected, but doesn't have any signal.
    Now, it's worked perfectly for weeks... until I replugged it yesterday.
    My set-up (that used to work):
    >DVI port 1 goes to main monitor
    >DVI port 2 goes to second monitor
    >HDMI port clones DVI port 2 and goes to TV
    And this is what I did:
    >Unplug 2nd DVI port, use it temporarily for another machine
    >Replug hours later, not working
    And what I've tried:
    >rebooting
    >reseating the GPU
    >blowing dust out of the GPU
    >emptying my computer for power (pull out powerplug, hold power button for 30 seconds)
    >clearing CMOS
    >different drivers (both with and without clean install option)
    >plugging monitors into 2nd DVI port (no signal from any monitors)
    >tried DVI to DVI, DVI to VGA, and DVI to HDMI - nothing seems to work
    >tried older GPU, it worked (with both ports)
    >tried the onboard DVI port for 2nd monitor, works but then I can't "clone" it to my TV.
    It also doesn't seem to get any signal during POST and BOOT (tried both monitors).
    The monitor also appears in "Screen Resolution" but as "Available display output: on Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000," but it doesn't work.
    When I messed around with it, trying to get it work, it also had an option to "force VGA" or something like that - but that did not work either.
    Specs:
    >ASRock Extreme3 Gen3
    >2500K
    >8gb Samsung Green low profile ram
    >MSI GTX680 with ref cooler and EVGA backplate
    >Corsair AX750
    >OS: Windows 8 x64 (although I doubt the operating system is an issue, since I don't even get output during POST/boot).
    I've tried searching, but to no avail. I've found people with similar issues, but none that managed to solve it. Example:

    Quote from: badboy2k on 10-November-12, 01:29:01
    I'd RMA the card as it sounds like the 2nd connector is broken and is not working guess it wasnt soldiered in place properly and its cane away on one of the connectors!!
    Sounds probable, but if you look at the first link I posted where other's have similar issues (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=142971.msg1066807#msg1066807) he tried swapping his GPU and it did not work for him. It might of course still be that the connection is just bad on my GPU and something else for him.
    I'll wait a while and see if other's can come up with some good suggestions. If not, I guess I have to RMA it.

  • Switch Radeon 5770 in Mac pro 5,1 to PC GTX 680

    I have heard that a Evga GTX 680 PC graphics card could be used in a Mac 5,1 mid 2010 without flashing it ?
    What else would I need, don't want to shell out $$ for a Mac card if I don't have to.
    Maybe have to sell the GTX 680  if incompatible ?
    Thankz in advance

    Quoting article:
    "The GTX 780 with 6GB GDDR5 video memory is only slightly slower than the GTX 780 Ti and TITAN Black but costs much less.
    The other factor in naming it the 'sweet spot' has to do with power. The GTX 780 6GB runs fine on the dual PCIe internal power cables -- as does the GTX 680 and Radeon HD 7950."
    "Though most of the attention is on the new 2013 Mac Pro. we continue to explore ways to 'pump up' the legacy Mac Pro towers. One of our favorite upgrade paths is the graphics processing unit aka GPU. We recently tested the GeForce GTX 780 with 6G of GDDR5 video memory (courtesy of MacVidCards). It just may be the 'sweet spot.' We'll explain after you peruse the graphs."

  • After effects and  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB

    I've installed the  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 2048 MB on a Mac Pro 3,2 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon running OSX 10.9.4 but it seems AE doesn't take advantage of the new hardware and the CUDA technology. The ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB mounted before, went for the same rendering times. Am I missing any setting in the software or isn't the graphic card the perfect choice for fastening my rendering processes?
    Ae obviously recognize the Nvidia and the CUDA settings should be ok....
    Any Idea?
    Andrea

    AE only takes advantage of CUDA for ray traced features, which is being phased out. To get the most out of your render times, invest in processing power and RAM. I upgraded to the Titan Black and noticed hardly any difference in my render times. Check out this response given by AE's Todd Kopriva on Sept 24, 2014 at Creative Cow: CUDA does not accelerate : Adobe After Effects

  • GTX 680 Lightning very slow

    Hello there,
    I'm stuck with the installation of the graphic card MSI GTX 680 Lightning, which is very, very slow. For sake of comparison, it does not score even 9000 in 3D Mark, while my previous Radeon 5770 reached 17000 without any problem.
    I tried several actions:
    Remove drivers with drive sweeper under safe mode.
    Installed updated drivers.
    Reinstalled Win 7 64 bits
    None of that make any difference. If I return to the previous card, the system works well again.
    My PC is:
    Processor: Intel Quad Core i7-960 (chipset Intel X58 (Tylersburg 36S) + ICH10R)
    Mobo: XFX MB-X58I-CH19
    Memory: 12 GB (Kingston 4096 MB PC3-10600 DDR3 SDRAM triple channel)

    PSU: Corsair TX850
    Operational System: Windows 7 64 bits Ultimate
    Graphic card: MSI N680GTX Lightning 2 GB GDDR5 PCI-E 3
    Does anybody have any idea on what should I do to make it work?
    Could it be some incompatibility with my mobo?
    Best regards,
    Antonio Intini

    What does gpuz say? (Can you post a screen shot)
    Have you installed Afterburner? Is it throttling or anything when using kombuster?
    Can you upload a copy of your vbios somewhere for svet to take a look?
    <<<NVFLASH>>>
    with syntax from cmd:
    nvflash -b myrom.rom [ENTER]
    then upload myrom.rom somewhere and give a link to it
    Are you using the newest applicable bios for your mobo? (Since the booting is an issue this may be easy)
    **EDIT: I have been having issue with LUCID MVP since I installed my 680 (not lightning though) I am not sure if that mobo is equiped, might want to try uninstalling if it is and see if it is better.
    Hello Xmad,
    I updated my BIOS today with the latest file from XFX. Good news: the processor speed is now OK, though SM2 and SM3 in 3dMark are still bad:
    Overall score: 11715 (target 19200, but it was not above 8000 before the BIOS update)
    SM2 score: 3791 (target 7300)
    SM3 score: 5530 (target 10000)
    CPU score: 4836 (target 4700) -> great!
    I tried to use NVFlash, but it does not run in Win 7 64bits - do you have a version for 64 bits?
    Apparently the graphic card works well with Kombustor benchmarkings:

  • GeForce GTX 680 Mac Edition Graphics Card advice wanted 2008 Mac Pro. Eight core desktop.

    I have read some threads yet it is not clear to me if it is a good move to upgrade an Mac Pro eight core 3.1- 2008 to use GeForce GTX 680 Mac Edition Graphics Card. I ask as my GeForce 8800 GT 2008 card has given up the ghost, and it has done sterling service R.I.P.. The machine is in the repair shop for a service itself, and this problem. So I thought an upgrade, as I am at it. Daunting choice out there. Um, learning curve and all that!
    I mainly do 2D graphics, Canvas, Adobe stuff, yet a little amount of video, which may grow some. No games on this work horse!
    So here I am fishing for experienced advice were my own is not, from anyone who has done this. Has it held up, do you get a boot screen, does it run two monsters easily via DVI.
    If you have one or something good fitted please share the skinny!
    For me it is turning into the year of the video card. My laptop looks like it got the disease first!
    Thanks.

    #4: GTX 285, no idea how 'safe' as often read someone (not Macvidcards) flashed PC card and sold as "Mac" and they are old, and may not be supported in Mavericks (and that would apply to a 8800 too).

    A new gpu is $5000 cheaper than an overhaul and new MP.
    A 2008 though will never perform as well as later models. Ideal is 2010 or later.
    Even a top of the line iMac with GTX if you are having a lot of trouble and thinking of ditching the 2008.
