MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G Temps

Hi,
I recently received a new graphics card from RMA.
ono thing that i've noticed is that my old card would idle at around 32ºc and the new one at almost 50ºc.
is this normal? should i be concerned?
thanks

during games like crysis 3 the highest temp i remember to see is 62ºc. never done any stress test with a specific program
i know that's not much, since the fans only start to work at 60ºc, but i don't know if it's normal for 2 versions of the same card to idle at such different temps

MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G issue

hi guys, was after a bit of help/advice.
I swapped out my gigabyte GTX770 4gb O/C card for a new MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G card yesterday.
At the same time I decided to do a clean installation of drivers and update to new 344.48 drivers.
I uninstalled the 344.16 drivers and used driver sweeper as normal to clear out old NVidia files.
I then tried to install the new 344.48 WHQL drivers from the nvidia site and I got a security warning stating the driver install could not proceed as the driver wasn't digitally signed
I downloaded a new version of 344.48 from the nvidia website and this time the driver installed.
However, when I tried to play the a game of BF4 or borderlands, I get an APP Crash error and the game freezes.
I have just done a clean installation of windows in case I had corrupt anything during card swap over, and once again downloaded a fresh version of 344.48 WHQL and once again its telling me the driver is not digitally signed and I cant proceed with installation.
I have managed to get the older 344.16 driver installed at the moment, but I haven't a clue what is causing this. I have yet to test the games after the clean windows install, but I have feeling they are going to crash again.
I hope I don't have to RMA this card ;/
My build: -
Intel i5-4670k (stock speed)
Corsair H80 water cooler
Gigabyte Z87x-UD3H m/b running bios update F8
XFX 850w black edition modular PSU
16gb DDR3 1666 corsair vengeance
MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G GPU
Asus VG248QE 144hz monitor with custom gaming ICC profile
Win 7 64 bit (all updates)
cheers for any help guys

I'd try to update the motherboard bios as well. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4481#bios
cheers guys, I just flashed to latest F10b bios and changed pci-e slot from gen3 to auto in bios, running borderlands now for last 30mins in OC mode on card and no crashes or app hangs
fingers crossed, this has resolved the crash issues.....still doesn't explain why the latest Nvidia drivers are saying I cant install due to no digital signature.
I will try to update to latest 344.48 later and see what happens, don't want to mess too much at the moment as I've only just got this card stable....fingers crossed ;p
thanks for your help guys

MSI GTX970 Gaming 4g Win 8.1& Win 10 x64 error code 43

Good day. I`ve changed my gtx 770 OC from gigabyte to msi 970 gaming 4g. After windows loaded i have exclamation on gtx 970 in device manager - error code 43. Tried clean install new drivers with DDU. Tried all driver from 344.11 to 344.80. Updated bios for my mobo and video. Reinstalled win 8.1 x64 and win 10 tp - same error :( I was thinking that my card is dead and tried to install win 7 x64. And it works perfectly in win 7, no errors.
Any thoughts how i can make it work in win 8.1 ? (tried to turn of gen3, standby and etc in bios. Hypervisor is not active in win 8.1 too)
My Pc:
cpu i4670k
mobo z87p-d3 (f8 bios)
ram 2x4gb kingston
video msi gtx970 gaming 4g ( latest bios)
psu zalman zm600-gsII
1 ssd and 3 hdd

sounds like there is some kind of compatibility issue
have you tried MSI VGA drivers from smi web for your card?
else ask your mainboard vendor for bios update
other options/tips:
* tell S/N of your card and save and upload its current vbios to check for updates
* test the card in another computer with Win8.1 OS to verify if will works there

MSI GTX770 gaming high temp, is this normal ?

GTX770 gaming 2GB
PSU NZXT 650 i just got this one so i think it's not a problem
When i'm gaming usually is Battlefield 4 temp is always 80-84c.
but highest temp show on afterburner is 87c sometimes it's could up to 89c , i cant check it's realtime because rivastatic server do not support battlefield 4 x64.
what wrong with it, it's sound temp too high i'm not OC and not use gaming app.
I never get crash or poor performance or something else but high temp.
Indeed i wanna try to replace silicone but i can't because they have warrantry void on the screw of the card.

MSI allows to change thermal paste or even change cooler as long as not damaging anything doing so. The sticker is there to warn unexperienced users about possible risk of voiding warranty. So no worries warranty will be fine. If you want to hear from MSI contact the local branch: >>How to contact MSI.<<
Here's afterburner SS look at max temp said 88c max.
I'm read many review from any website not even see high temperature like this on msi GTX770 or other brand , that why I came here I just want to know is my tempreature normal
If yes i will not do anything.
Here's the viod on the screw , Are you sure I can remove it
I bought it's from distributor call ascenti resources in Bangkok Thailand.

Hi Svet
Im currently using the previous bios version and want to update to the latest for my 2x GTX 970.
Can i use the one you attached?
The reason im asking is because there are many that say each MSI GTX 970 have an unique bios between 5 different(?). For getting correct bios version you have to look at the cards serialnumber

Msi gtx970 gaming new vbios NV316MH.126

Today, live update program tell me that there is a vbios update...my installed version is NV316MH.125
Do i really need this update?
What are the changelog...

A number column like "84.04.1F.00.F1" is no real vbios version despite gpu-z's wrong listing. These numbers can cover various versions even legacy and UEFI/GOP. Only the MSI version is relevant.
Quote from: comiandrea on 08-October-14, 19:33:15
i'll wait for more info about this vbios...
MSI doesn't document changes in vbios versions so nobody except for an MSI bios engineer can tell you. If not especially released for a certain purpose (e.g. to fix a common issue) most users won't even notice any difference. If you want to ask MSI do so: >>How to contact MSI.<<

Msi GTX970 gaming 4g

Hye guys.. want to ask is it ok that my gpu temp is at 79 degree when i play gamess

owentsai - sorry, I disagree - 79 is WAY too high for this particular card. Unless he has poory ventilated or fully enclosed case, there is no way 4G should reach 79 with TF5. My 980 reaches 68 deg on OC with case fans off so mnct327 - no, this temp is not normal.
can you check in afterburner if your fans are spinning and what speed? do you have them on AUTO or manual?

MSI GTX980 Gaming sometimes not recognized by MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC

I have been experiencing a very odd problem with my new hardware.
Hardware
Motherboard: MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790
CPU-cooler: Scythe Mugen 4
RAM: G.Skill RipjawsZ F3-17000CL9Q-16GBZH
Videocard: MSI GeForce GTX 980 4GB GAMING 4G
PSU: Seasonic X-660 80+ Gold
SSD: Crucial M550 2,5" 1TB
Monitor#1: LG 34UM95-P
Monitor #2: Eizo Foris FG2421
OS: Windows 7 Professional
Issue description
The thing is that with 2 monitors connected the videocard is not recognized on a cold boot, but boots perfectly most of the time after a restart. In some cases a restart doesn't do the trick. I have even seen a couple of times that the monitor shows that windows starts and then the monitor loses the signal from the videocard before I can see the desktop (rare). With just 1 monitor attached the videocard is recognized. Als the IGP works fine, it's just the videocard that doesn't seem to be recognized when 2 monitors are connected (all combinations of DP, HDMI and DVI). When the computer has booted after one or more restarts and the videocard is recognized the computer works flawlessly, no problems whatever I do with it (desktop work, stressing hardware, playing games, etc.). Not a single sign of instability.
It's just the cold boot and sometimes the soft boot or restart that causes the videocard to not being recognized with 2 monitors connected.
What makes it really weird to me is that when the computer goes into sleep mode I can wake it up normally within say 10 minutes. But if I wait for let's say an hour the videocard is not transmitting a signal through the videocard.
When IGP is enabled the computer boots and windows loads normally (I hear the sound of the Windows login), although the monitors stay black when connected to the videocard. Then switching the connectors from the videocard to the motherboard shows me a normal Windows login screen, but the videocard is not visible in the device list. When the IGP is disabled to bootup sequence just hangs until a restart works and the computer boots normally with the videocard getting recognized and working properly.
Click sounds
I noticed the motherboard makes 4 click sounds when booting, like relays flipping. I think it has to to with distributing power to al the components, since it looks like components respond to the click by turning led lights on. But I have to say I've never come across a motherboard before that makes click sounds. Is this normal?
Tried fixes
- Replaced the RAM with 100% working RAM from my other computer (Corsair Vengeance LP CML8GX3M2A1600C9) -> problem persists
- Disabed XMP -> problem persists
- Replaced the PSU with another one (Cooler Master V550 Semi-Modular) -> problem persists
- Reinstalled the videocard physically -> problem persists
- Tried several combinations of connecting the 2 monitors to the videocard (all DP ports, HDMI and DVI) -> problem persists
- Replaced the videocard with a MSI GTX970 Gaming (connected with 1xDP and 1xHDMI) -> problem persists
Conclusions so far
The cause can be found in the videocard or motherboard (probably BIOS issue).
Who can shed some light on this issue?

Quote from: JLio01 on 14-November-14, 17:02:39
Try all PCIE slots no luck? Does the black screen always happen on one certain monitor or both?
I tried both the first and the second PCIe slot. No difference except for the fact that in the second slot the card only works at x8 bandwidth.
Quote from: jotan.va on 24-November-14, 18:05:51
BTW - Did anybody try to remove the wifi module from the board and then test?
I didn't install the wifi module in the first place.
UPDATE
I returned the motherboard to the webshop I bought it from and sent my cpu, ram, psu and videocard (GTX980) with it so they could test it. They found out that the videocard is the problem. So now I have to send the videocard to the webshop it bought that from. However, I am suspecting that it's just a VBIOS problem and not some fault in the hardware itself. On the other hand, it would be very strange that MSI would release a videocard that cannot work with one of their own top motherboards, wouldn't it?

MSI X99S Gaming 7 and debug code 67

Hi,
I have MSI X99S Gaming 7 motherboard, Crucial 2x8GB 2133 DDR4, MSI GTX970 Gaming 4G, Corsair RM650, i7-5820k setup.
When I am trying to boot the machine it always stops and the debug led shows code 67. I have tried to take everything out, reseated processor and to boot with just the minimum set of components. Result is always the same code 67.
I am running out of ideas. Do you have any hints or should I just return the mobo and processor?
Best Regards,
juha

Quote from: shadow85 on 22-December-14, 19:40:31
So are you going to RMA the board or just use it with 2 sticks? Thats means you are not planning on using it in quad channel, would be a waste.
Anyways if I were you I would definatly RMA it asap. This error 67 problem people are having seems to be widespread. MSI really need to look into this.
As has been said previously, contact MSI. Should they look into it? Yes, but the moderators here are not MSI employees, and while we can bring issues to their attention, we cannot make them look into problems.
So if you have this problem, please contact MSI directly: >>How to contact MSI.<<

Crash by gaming with MSI z97 Gaming 9 AC/ MSI 980GTX

Dear MSI Form
The last couple of weeks I have a very bad crash,
This is my system:
Windows 8.1 64
Mother board: MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC
GPU: MSI GTX 980
CPU: Intel core i7 4790K 4 GHz
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Nepton 240M
Memory: 16GB 4x4 Corsair vengeance pro
Hard disk: 2 X 1TB 1 X 1TB SSD
Power supply: Be quiet! Power Zone 650W
Case: Cooler Master CM Storm Trooper Window
Fans: 9X Be quiet! Shadow wings + Fan controller
I use my pc mostly for gaming,
I bought en build my pc on September 2015 but now and then I get a very bad crash, the crash shuts down my pc (no blue screen / no Error) just a black screen with a pc that won’t respond on anything. The lights are on at my motherboard cpu cooler and GPU, but no respond. To turn my pc on again I have to shut down the main power switch. After 10 seconds I can start up my pc again.
I get the following windows event: id 41 kernel power
Scenario:
This began when I played Dragon age 3 in December, I got the crash twice in like 100 hours. (not a big deal) than I got the same crash once when I played GTA V with 60 hours more or less. But now when I playing the Witcher 3 wild hunt I get it every 5 minutes.
What did I try to fix it but won’t work:
- Memtest run x10 no error
- Drivers up to date
- The temps under full load are great CPU they won’t go over 51 degrease / GPU 68 degrees / the rest won’t go over 45 degrees.
- I got no virus.
- Everything is connected just fine.
I hope you guys can help me out.
Kind regards,
Tijs Dragtsma from the Netherlands

May be your PSU being too weak or going bad (I doubt though). Although you have 9 fans.. maybe try disconnecting case fans and leave only CPU cooler ones to work?

DIMM 1/2 stopped working on MSI Z97 Gaming 5, help!

Hello again!
Today I was trying out a different cooler for my i7 4790K, I mounted it and everything worked fine, but results were bad, so I decided to mount previous cooler again...
And here were the problem starts. After I mounted everything back (exactly following guide like before, thermal paste etc all done) my PC would not start the system nor BIOS.
I wondered what could cause it, so just to check a possibility, I unplugged one RAM module from DIMM 2 (they used to work in dual-channel at 2/4 DIMMs) and it suddenly started BIOS and system up normally.
Following this tip, I unmounted cooler's fan, because it covers DIMM 1 to check if it would work, and doesn't matter what memory I plug in DIMM 1 or 2, it won't work Doesn't work with any combination, so I can't actually use dual-channel right now, as only DIMM 3 and 4 work at the moment (both or alone). Any module plugged in 1/2 slots doesn't work.
All I see is that temperature monitor on my MSI Z97 Gaming 5 shows 10-55, 10-55 all the time, jumpy temps, everything works, but nothing loads. Just black screen, nothing. I work with 3/4 slots in single channel right now.
What the hell could happen? Please help me with this!
Edit: Is that possible I could move a CPU from a proper pin so it doesn't connect properly with DIMM 1 and 2? My cooler moved a bit before I mounted it properly. That's only thing that comes to my mind right now.
