MSI gtx 570 twin frozr III - Dual Screen Windowed mode issues

Ok, so... I was running a solo monitor 1440x900 resolution, i recently purchased a brand new asus 24 inch 1900x1080 monitor. Basically what is happening is when i play WoW or Battlefield 3 in windowed mode on the 1080p monitor the colors are not perfect. When i go full-screen on the new monitor no issues, but that is not what i want to have to live with. When i say the colors are not perfect what i mean is, for example when i look @ the sky instead of being a smooth transition or blend from one shade of the sky to the next it is bars or stripes of each shade as if i am looking at the sky in 8 bit color instead of 32 bit color. Another thing to note is that when i login to windows 7 the blue screen where i input the password has the same effect. The 1440x900 monitor is running everything just fine. the only issue is with the 1080p monitor.
I am using DVI cabling for both, and have swapped them around to see if that was the issue, and sadly it is not. I am running the updated gpu driver, which i uninstalled and re-downloaded and installed again tonight.
When i use the HDMI cable, that fixes the issue but i need the HDMI for my 42 inch tv.
Also in windows, just to cover my bases with this post, i have the native resolutions properly configured, as well as in the game for the given monitor it is being played on.
Anyone know of a fix for this?
i7 2600k
asus PBZ68-v Pro/Gen3
Msi gtx 570
Samsung syncmaster 953bw (1440x900)
Asus VS248 (1900x1080)
I am more than happy to re-explain anything that may not be as descriptive or clear to you just let me know!
EDIT!
When i run the 24 inch 1080p new monitor as my only monitor on the system, everything runs perfectly...
Edit #2
Ok so i have pin pointed a possible cause
This msi gtx 570 struggles with operating multiple displays with different resolutions, while dual screening with my 1080p television and the 1080p display, everything runs as expected. Having to also render a 1440x900 display is probably the reason i am having the graphic issues. Is there any type of utility, setting, or other fix to this type issue? also this gpu is certainly less than 2 weeks since i purchased i could get a different card to remedy this... any suggestion? if you suggest a different card can you say so with certainty that it will work properly under the condition in which 2 resolutions will be required?

Ok, the problem is fixed and Svet i skipped a step or two. I installed the new driver with the clean install to save time for an initial attempt. What is interesting is that with the Geforce driver, only one 1920x1080 resolution was available
The msi driver gave me 2 options, 1920x1080 and 1920x1080 (native). The latter resolution fixed the issue for whatever reason.
The solution to this problem is so easy, when i purchased battlefield 3 it prompted me to download the geforce.com driver and i did not think anything of it at the time, lesson learned.

Unstable GTX 570 Twin Frozr III OC

My brand new MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozr III OC is unstable. When under load suddenly the sound hangs and the GTX shuts down for a second and the screen goes black. After this it works again. Some games can handle this, but with others I'm back @ desktop.
My rig:
- Intel i7 2600K
- Asrock P67 Pro3 B3
- Corsair Vengeance 2 x 4GB
- Cooler Master Powersupply Realpower Pro 700W Modular
I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate (64bit)
Is this problem due to the known stability issues and should I have a VBIOS update? If so which one, because GTX570 Twin Frozr III OC isn't on your BIOS update list.

Back again...
Today I installed a new PSU (Corsair GS700 single rail with 56 A over +12V) and started playing Bioshock 2 because the error used to occur the most often playing that game.
I played half an hour feeling more and more relieved when suddenly..... same sh*t happened.
Windows crash report had the following to say:

I think we can rule out that it's a PSU problem. My mobo, processor and RAM are also new so maybe the problem is not the card. I already tested the RAM with memtest with no errors.
I will try to find another PC to test the card in. Can I do something else to maybe test the motherboard or processor?

Geforce GTX 570 Twin Frozr III PE/OC and BSOD

Hi,
I have an MSI Geforce GTX 570 Twin Frozr III PE/OC which appears to be causing system instability (graphical corruption upon boot i.e before windows), and BSOD. It typically occurs from a cold boot resulting in BSOD after the Windows logo. This will occur 2-3 times. The system then runs stably.
I have tracked this problem down to this card when running at x16 mode in my primary PCIe slot (slot 2, x16_1) on my motherboard. It does not occur if the card is in slot 5 (x16_2) where it only runs at x8 speed (2.5Gb/s rather than 5Gb/s). This does not occur if I place a borrowed Geforce GTX 260 in the primary PCIe slot (it runs at x16 fine and causes no such system instability).
I have tried out various mobo BIOS updates, checked all my system files, updated (and rolled back) my NVIDIA drivers, and checked my memory for errors with Memtest 86+. I cannot find any updates to my video card BIOS.
Can I assume the card is faulty, or does anyone have any other possible solutions?
Spec is:
Windows 7 64-bit
Intel I5-2500K
Asus P8Z68V-Gen 3 mobo
8Gb Corsair DDR3 1800 mem
MSI Geforce GTX Twin Frozr III PE/OC
Cheers!

Its a Corsair 750TX V2 (750 watt). I am also running 1 SSD, 2 hard drives and a blue-ray optical drive. You don't think its too much for the PSU do you?
The PSU its plenty enough
Quote
No I haven't tried it on another computer and I don't think its very likely I'll get the chance.
there is not much options then, except to RMA the card and to hope the problem to be there.
[else the problem will remain]

No, that is not possible. These are totally different cards. They have a different custom design with a cooler totally different and the GAming offering profiles that can't be used with an ordinary N660 TF 2GD5/OC

GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition

Hey guys,
i just got the GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition and i love the card but it seems to run quite loud at fan speed above 48% so i made a custom fan control in afterburner
and the card runs at 71C - 75C under full load in games(crysis2, witcher 2), are those temperatures too high? if not what is the max safe temp i should be running at?
thank you =]

Quote from: Henry on 31-July-11, 05:13:04
Those temps are normal under a heavy load, nothing at all to worry about.
some people said i can lower the fan speed and just let the card run at 80C, so my last question is:
Is 80C under load an acceptable temperature to run this card at for let's say 4 non-stop gaming hours a day?
and thanks for reply ^^

GTX 560ti Twin Frozr II - Dual Screen Issue + Silent fan speed

My first problem is that i can't use a true extended monitor configuration (1 dvi + 1 vga, 1920*1080 + 1280*1024).
Dual monitor work in CLONE MODE but not in extended.
Extended mode use 1 monitor or turn to clone mode automatically :/
EXCEPT after a NEW driver installation. So if i want to use dual screen extended mode, i have to reinstall driver each time i boot...
I have use DriverSweeper in safe-mode but this trick don't work for me. I have the last nvidia driver 270 and i have try the 270 beta driver too.
Into game? That work fine (except some artifacts who appear occasionnaly (one time in metro 2033 and one time in battlefield bad company 2) but it's not fine for a new gpu i think :/)
Can you help me to fix that dual screen problem?
2 - SILENCE
My second problem is that i want a silent computer but the fan are too noisy.
Live Update don't find update for my vga bios (currently at 70.24.0A.00.00)

GTX 570 Twin Frozr III POWER Edition supply issues

Hi there,
I've always been a fan of MSi products, so when the time came for me to start looking for an upgrade to my current graphics card, I started looking to what MSi had in their range. After some research, the GTX 570 TFIII seems a good option for me, as it gives good performance at a reasnoble price.
Unfortunately MSi seems to have fallen off the map in South Africa. I cannot find any retailer or wholesaler to even give me an eta for 570 or 580 chipset cards in the country, and I've tried all of the suppliers listed on your site and a few that arn't listed. Is there some worldwide shortage of these models? Did the ship sink? Have MSi forgotten where South Africa is?
Any help with the procurement of these cards would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to start importing from the U.S/Europe myself, and I'd like to get an MSi card if possible, rather than go for a different make.
regards,
Al

Welcome to the forum Alandrix.
None of us work for MSI and as such we cannot answer to the supply shortage reasons.
We are at the mercy of the importers. MSI has no official representation in South Africa and all their products are imported by these distributers who have standing contracts with MSI.
Only these importers can supply you with information as to what is on order by them and as to when thses shipments are expected.
As for bringing this to MSI's attention, I suggest you open a ticket and describe the situation to them. That is the only way that MSI will be aware of any seeming neglect with regards to product availability by their official importers/distributers. >>How to contact MSI.<<
Its unfortunately the way it is and it will remain that way until MSI decides to invest in some official representation on the African Continent.
Check your PM. I posted a local contact that may be able to assist in your query.

MSI GTX 680 Twin Frozr III OC edition

Hey guys,
First post and I know it's a bit of a long shot but does anybody know where I can get one of these cards.
Have one already and have been very happy with it so I want to go SLI. Don't want to buy a new 780ti or whatever as I know I can get a cheaper 680 and get the same if not better performance by going SLI with what I have.
I know you can mix and match brands but I really want 2 of the same. Have looked on Ebay and they do pop up now and again but just wanted to know if anybody has any ideas, or even has one in a box that is unused.
Thanks
Ian

GTX680s are out of producation for quite a while. ebay is your only hope so far. Shops that still have GTX680s are often selling those at totally insane prices. A 780ti would be a better idea. SLI strongly depends on driver and SLI profile support and may feel laggy despite high fps. One high-end gpu is always better than two lower classed cards in SLI.

MSI R7970 Lightning vs MSI GTX 680 Twin Frozr III OC 2 GB

Hey
I am looking to finalize my new build, however I am having a hard time deciding between these two cards. I will be doing some overclocking of course:)
Which path would you recommended, AMD or nVidia?
Thanks!

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

[Tech Help Needed] GTX 660 Twin Frozr III 2GB SC Fan Stops Working

Hello everyone.
It's extremely rare for me to have computer issues, but this time it happened.
MSI GTX 660 Twin Frozr III 2GB SC, and here's the issue:
Whenever i turn on the computer the gpu fans spin for around 5seconds and after that they stop, for now they seem fine since i'm usually idling for the 1st 30minutes or so, but when i start playing games the gpu temperatures skyrocket to around 60-70 idling in-game and the fans just won't start working, yes the the psu cables are connected to the gpu, bla bla ( duh ). i've had the gpu for around 2years and it worked fine but all of a "sudden" the fans just seem to not work and it starts getting very high temperatures, i've read someone complaining about the same issue and he was told to replace his gpu bios with some uefi bios and he said that the uefi update solved his fan issues which were the same as mine.
Now my problem is, i've never done that "Bios Flashing" and things like that and i don't know if my Board is compatible. If it worked for that person then it should work for me since the symptoms are literally the same. I've tried uninstalling the gpu drivers completely and installed again, the issue still persists.
If it's of any reference i own the following setup:
MB : ROG Asus Crosshair IV Formula
CPU : AMD Phenom II X6 1090T BE
GPU : MSI GTX 660 Twin Frozr III 2GB SC
RAM : 2x4GB G.Skill Ripjaw X 1600Mhz
PSU: Corsair GS 700 Gaming Series ( yes its more than enough and good enough )
I've literally had no problems whatsoever with my system for a few years now, and just like that the fans don't want to work, i can play games and what not, but at around 70ºC with no fans running ..... i've tried using MSI Afterburner to boost the fan speed, the fan speed setting gets set but the rpm stays at 0. i also made it to run on windows start and its still at 0 RPM.
Will the uefi bios solve my problem like it did to the other person with the exact same issue?
Thank you for your time spent reading, hopefully it will be solved.

Still no reply after 2 days, impressive support right there ... every other post that came after got replied ...
Anyway, if its also relevant about my issue :
- Fans briefly spin after i press the power button to turn on my computer and stop right after around 3-5s and never spin again until i shutdown and power on again for the same brief spin.
- If i force the fans on Afterburner to 90% or above ( 100% ) they spin and make unsupportable noise.
Also if its of any relevance :
N660 TF 2GD5/OC
S/N: 602 - V287 - 050B1302044857
At least provide me with the most up-to-date uefi/gop vbios or whatever that is, to see if it fixes my problem, otherwise recommend me a substitute cooling system that i can use ( a good one, not 3rd rated ) to replace the stock cooling in this because i don't have the money to get another card, and if i get one it won't be from msi for sure.
Very dissapointed.
