MSI GTX 670 Power Edition/OC max temperature?

I've had a MSI GTX 670 Power Edition/OC working great since October 2012, no problems even with the most demanding games.
But now the summer heat has come (it's 40°C in the shade) and I've been getting crashes (classic TDR, no video signal, windows reboots) when the temperature of the GPU gets to about 80°C. If I leave the case open, it never reaches that temperature and works great.
I can't find the temperature specs for this card, but the reference GTX 670 should run up to 97°C.
Is this normal? What is your maximum stable temperature?
P.S. I don't overclock, anything.
Thank you

Hi there,
the only think I could suggest is that ...
1st. do you have adequate cooling in your system..i.e. case fans etc,etc, and to ensure theres no obstruction to cooling fan on vga card, always an alternative is to install what they call an exhaust blower fan place that directly underneath your card and that will extract heat away, I had the same issue with my MSI 6570 card and as soon as I added an exhaust blower mine runs at 33oC and i'm pushing my card to the extreme and temp still stays the same... if that fail then your gpu cooling issnt running fast enough to supply adequate cool air...
I hope that will help you

MOVED: Display driver stopped responding and has recovered. MSI GTX 670 Power Edition

This topic has been moved to Graphics Cards.
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=251843.0

Hey there,
Noticed that my BIOS drivers were outdated so i updated them (Z68A-GD65 G3, version: 25.8), after all the reboots i logged on my computer, started teamspeak, and while searching for the teamspeak room the driver problem happened again.
Anyway, my power supply is NOX Hummer 80 600W, model: HUM80600.
The problems started on September of this year i think? I've had this computer for almost 3 years now. I have the latest Nvidia drivers, and this still happens, i've tried downgrading, fresh installing, and nothing worked.
Graphics card: MSI GTX 670 Power Edition 2GB GDDR5 PCI-E 3.0 DirectX11, S/N: 602-V284-02SB1207063830.
I'll try it tommorow if possible.
Thank you for the attention.

GTX 670 Power Edition OC versions ?

Hello.
Today I've got a question about the MSI GTX 670 Power Edition OC graphics card.
I'm about to buy this card but I've found that there are two version of it: MSI GTX 670 PE/OC and MSI GTX 670 PE/OC G ( notice a "G" at the end ).
The question is, what that "G" in the model name means, what are the differences ?
Greetz, `NX.

I mean, I was wondering if going with Radeon 7970 wouldn't be a better idea
But I'm not sure of Radeons.
depends on your plans to use the card for! some games like Far Cry 3, Hitman Absolution, Sleeping Dogs, Medal of Honor Warfighter , dragon age and some more respond better to AMD cards while alot of others are more geared towards Nvidia ones!
so what do you plan to do with your graphics card? generally Nvidia ones are better all round but it depends on what your doing with them to which way is better!

GTX 670 Power Edition gives no video signal

Hoping somebody can help here. I've had a long string of problems which seemed graphics card related. Initially, the problem that Windows would reboot with no error message or warning of any kind about a minute after logging in. No problems in safe mode nor any problem if I set Windows to start in Diagnostic Mode. Advice at the time suggested doing a system repair from my installation CD but didn't have time to do this before going on holiday. On return, the problem had deteriorated (or a new problem appeared) - there was no video signal, not even the BIOS screen.
At this time my graphics card was an NVidia GTX 580, motherboard a Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R, I-7 950 CPU, 850W XFX PSU.
I ran through a host of tests to eliminate possible causes:
1. Tried the card in all PCI_E slots but still no video.
2. Tried another card (NVidia Quadro) in all PCI-E slots, system booted successfully with video and could login to Windows (difference here is the Quadro is powered directly from the motherboard).
3. Tried a number of DVI cables with both cards, the Quadro worked with all of them the 570 stubbornly refused to give a video signal.
Decided the problem was either the PSU or the GTX 580. Returned the latter under warranty and purchased the MSI GTX 570 PE. Installed this and again no video signal but ran through the above tests again with exactly the same results. However could now test the 570 on another system (could not try this with the 680 as PSU on my other system only had 2 6-pin PCI-E connections and the 580 required an 8-pin and a 6-pin power connection). The 570 at least produced the BIOS screen, booted Linux and presented a login screen. Didn't login as the PSU on this system was probably on the marginal side for wattage.
Decided then that I had a strange PSU problem. It could power my PC with the Quadro, suggesting motherboard, CPU, RAM and disks were all OK but could not provide sufficient power for either the 580 or the 670 cards. Bought a new 850W PSU and have just installed this with the 670 card in and yet again I get no video signal. I am now stumped as to what the problem can be so would welcome any suggestions as to what may be wrong and/or what else I can try.
Thanks,
George

then you should contact mainboard vendor about it as problem is not in the VGA.
I had given what I thought was sufficient information about the PC spec in my first post. Both what I started with and what I'd changed. But I'll give the full spec here:
Motherboard: GA-X58A-UD3R Rev 2.0
CPU: Intel I-7 950 3.06 GHz
Memory: 3x4GB Crucial DDR3 PC3-10600 • CL=9 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1333 • 1.5V • 512Meg x 64
Disks: Samsung 64GB SSD SATA System disk
WD 1TB and 500GB SATA drives
PSU: Coolermaster RS-850-SPHA-D3 80+ Gold - 3.3V:22A, 5V:25A, 12V:70A single 12V rail
GPU: MSI GTX 670 2GB OC Power Edition
OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
The changes were the PSU and the GPU. The problem started when I had an XFX Black Edition 80+ Bronze PSU and a Gigabyte GTX 580 GPU otherwise the rest of the spec was and has remained the same. With my original spec, it ran perfectly happily for almost 2 years but then started with the system rebooting without warning about a minute after login (it would stay at the login screen indefinitely). After running some tests the clues seemed to point to the GPU configuration having been corrupted in some way (from sfc logs). However, if I set Windows to Selective startup, I could login and the system would stay up. I decided to do a system repair from my Windows 7 installation disk but had to postpone this for a couple of weeks during which time the PC was powered off.
When I next powered up the system, there was no video signal at any time. The investigation I did made me think either the GPU was faulty or there was a PSU problem - all other aspects of the system could be shown to work. I returned the GTX580 as it was under warranty and purchased the GTX670 with the refund. This exhibited the same symptoms as the 580 - no video signal no matter how long I left the system running. I was able to test the 670 in another system and it worked there. I couldn't run this test with the 680 as the PSU did not have an 8-pin PCI-E connector - just 2 6-pin connectors.
I then added an NVidia Quadro card alongside the 670 and booted the system with this as the display GPU. This gave me a video signal at all times and more importantly allowed me to get into Windows and check if it recognised the 670 in Device manager. It did but reported a problem as, until now, I hadn't been able to load the 670 driver. I did this and rebooted - again no video signal during post and initial Windows boot but I did get video as soon as the newly installed driver was loaded. This is the state I'm in now other than I've flashed the vbios as suggested and the GPU no longer works on my other PC.
Note, I can happily remove the Quadro and boot the system with just the 670, except I don't get any video signal until Windows has loaded the 670 driver - the monitor light stays stubbornly orange till that point. After that, everything seems to be fine - I don't get the reboots that this problem started with. The only other clue I have is with my original spec I always had a problem from shortly after building it where I would need to power cycle the system most times as I could not wake it from hibernate mode.
I'm hoping this helps as I know I have run out of ideas of things to do. The only thing I have left to try is update the motherboard BIOS.

MSI 670 POWER EDITION SLI HELP!

Okay so i recently bought another MSI 670 Power Edition card. I loved my original and wanted a bit of a performance boost.
I run a MSI Z68 GD80 G3 mobo with i7 2600K. 16GB of Corsair Vengeance memory.
So after a few days of testing i get about 10-20fps increase in certain games. Now after comparing my PC to other Computers with similar specs and my cards are faster than theres.
I am not getting that much of an improvement as i should.
On unigine Valley "Everything max at 1920x1080" i get a score of 2333 thats with both cards. To me that seems rather low or am i being silly. Also i was watching a video of a guy running the Metro Last Light benchmark and he was hitting over double what i had in terms of FPS.
Then i read that it could be because i have a sandy bridge and it doesn't utilize PCI.E 3 correctly. Any help would be awesome THANKS :D

As flobelix stated before, you are limited to PCI-E 2.0 because of your Sandy CPU.
Talking about bandwidth, SLI with PCI-E 2.0 x8-x8 is the equivalent of PCI-E 3.0 x4-x4.
Not very good, but not very bad either.
Quote from: rydek
unigine valley sli - 2349
unigine valley single original card - 1718
Tomb Raider Tress FX off everything Ultra average FPS 62.7 - SLI
Tomb Raider Tress FX off everything Ultra average FPS 36.3 - Single GPU original
Your scores are ok.
With a better CPU (i7 3770K), the scores are around 2200 (single) and 3000 (SLI).
Those with higher scores have overclocked GPUs (and CPUs).
Tomb Raider is one of those few games with great SLI scaling (most of the games are not).
As you can see, you get a 70-75% boost in this game.

MSI GTX 670 completely freezes please help

Hi. I posted my problem on the nvidia forums and they suggested I RMA my graphics card and get it replaced... I thought I would post it here to see if anyone could help me...
This issue has started about a few days ago and it has been bugging me because I can't play any pc games for longer than about a minute. Anyway, so the problem is, after about 10 seconds of playing any pc game(I'm using the game minecraft as an example) my computer COMPLETELY freezes and blue squares appear. There is nothing I can do other than switch off the power. Even my mouse pointer freezes. I don't think it's an 'overheating' problem because I let it cool down for 24 hours and the problem persists.
I took a picture with my iphone to show
As you can see, the blue squares appear and EVERYTHING is frozen... Even if i'm not playing a game, sometimes on occasions my screen goes black and comes back and says "display driver has stopped responding and has successfully recovered". But the main issue is that I can't play games or even watch youtube videos for longer than 10 seconds...
I have a MSI GTX 670 and I have the 306.97 driver.
I have tried countless 'fixes' (for example, setting power management to prefer maximum performance in nvidia control panel) and others too..
Any replies will be GREATLY appreciated, thankyou

brand, model PSU?

I don't have another computer to test it in..
then you can RMA it and if the problem is not in the card the problem will persist.

Msi gtx 560ti hawk running always max clocks

Hello.
My msi gtx 560ti hawk running always max clocks.
OC core clock up to 1000MHz gives similar results.
OC core clock past 1000MHz will stuck it at 1000MHz. Example i set core clock to 1040MHz and run 3DMark11,but
during the test it never exceeds 1000MHz.
Card is 15 months old and worked normally so far.
My OC results before was
core clock 1000MHz Core Voltage 1.075V
core clock 1040MHz Core Voltage 1.088V
core clock 1100MHz Core Voltage 1.100V max temps ~78C
I never raised core clock over 1100 and memory clock over 2275.
Things i'm done so far
used 310.90 310.70 306.97 306.23 301.42 drivers
disabled antivirus
mounted card out of the case and switched vbios in silence mode
used Afterburner 2.2.3 Evga Precision X
reinstalled windows7
reverted cpu to stock clocks
Any advice?
System
MB: msi z68-gd65 (B3) bios V22.8
cpu: i5-2500K

psu: corsair TX750V2 (62 amp 12 rail)
ram: G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL 2x4g 1600
os: Windows7 SP1

No! Nvidia controlpanel was set to max perfomans and windows power options to high perfomance.
I changed nvidia to adaptive (windows stayed high perf) and now the clocks to come down again.
Thanks Svet!
There is still a OC problem when i set core clock over 1000MHz.
I just ran 3dmark11 at following overclock core 1040MHz
shader 2080MHz
memory 2100
core voltage 1.075+0.013
In results window the 3dmark11 says core clock 1040.
Afterburner 2.3.1 monitoring window says max core clock 1000
shader 2000
memory 2099
Although i´m not seeing shader adjusting bar in 2.3.1, there are only core clock adjusting bar.
But adjusting a core clock will adjust shader x2. Am i right?

Msi gtx 670

Hi
I bought a msi gtx 670 for my new pc and connected it to the monitor via an hdmi lead. I am getting a poor quality picture and my card is not showing in hardware. when i try to install the latest drivers it does not find my card installed. anyone had this problem?
thanks in advance

Can you provide your full system spec please. >>Posting Guide<<
Your problem can be caused by many things.
bad HDMI cable,
Badly seated VGA card,
insufficient power,
MB BIOS incompatibility with PCIE 3 cards
faulty PCIE slot,
faulty VGA card......

Msi gtx 670 pe can not more overvoltage?

i want buy msi gtx 670pe, but in other forum users tell me gtx 670 pe can not more overvoltage is true?

Quote from: flobelix on 05-February-13, 03:44:56
Any reference card will get hot and be loud. A GTX670 PE has a way advanced cooling keeping it cool, quite silent and most importantly with low temps ensures it won't run in the power limit. Reference cards will run into the power limit quite quickly. PE cards will mostly never reach 100%. That ensures high and constant boost clocks. With some oc a GTX670 can perform as fast as a reference GTX680.
I ordered today msi gtx 670 pe oc, I saw that the card have two led blu. but some pepole do not turn on blu leds, this is defect?

Gtx 570 power edition/OC low 3dmark11 score

As you have probably read in the title, I seem to get a low score on 3dmark11, considering that this is a fairly new system (2weeks old ) I don't think that my system is bottlenecking my 570:

kingston ram 1333MHz (cas9)
vertex 3 max iops
asus p8p67 evo

The other things in there aren't really relevant I guess.

Considering that this is a power edition/oc I thought I should have at least gotten scores that are slightly better than average/average, not below average
I've also seen that my frame rate is fairly low (18-24 fps) in 3dmark 11
And ~23 fps(according to fraps) in crysis warhead with enthusiast settings with 16xAA (according to fraps) <-- I also saw some artifacts on maybe 1/2 tree's throughout the game: White dots all over it, if you want me to post a screenshot just say so and I'll go load my save game and upload the pic

MSI GTX 670 Twin Frozr

MSI GTX 670 Twin Frozr fan seems to make a fast clicking noise when not under load or cold. Have to start up something that's graphics intensive to get it to stop. This clicking noise starts a few seconds after dust off. Anything that I can do from here? Still under warranty.
Great card otherwise.

check if the VGA FANs are touching something

Ah, there is more than meets the eye to it.
I recently newly installed Windows 8.1, why didn't it auto install it to GPT? I'm not gonna do a reinstall right away to test if it's working.
btw: what about GPT and SSD trim? It thought that didn't get along well?
btw 2: Is this particular thing also related to the fact that I can't enable the "Windows 8 feature" in the bios and so also not "Secure Boot"? With it enabled the PC won't go to Windows and keeps hanging on some black/yellow letter UEFI screen...
