PC powers off under Kombustor stress test MSI GTX 560-TI Twin Frozr II

Recently went through MSI RMA procedure and they replaced my 465 twin frozr II with the 560-TI twin frozr II. When the card is stressed under GPU Burn-IN benchmark settings, the computer will just reboot.  Everything is set to stock speeds on the card.
I want to assume this is a power supply issue but I've had my i7 930 overclocked stably for a while, I reverted to stock speeds to give extra power back to the 12v rail, have unplugged my storage sata hd and dvd power and am still having this issue. Also it appears the 465 takes a lot more power than the 560-ti, though I hadn't stress tested it for quite a while.
My PSU is the OCZ500SXS.  I monitored the 12v rail during stress testing and the lowest i see it drop to is 11.89v. Any ideas to narrow this down would be much appreciated. TIA

Understood.  Thanks much for the response.  I'll replace the psu and run the same tests and see what happens.  All this has lead me to be curious about how power is precisely drawn for the system.  Is there a known good resource/article for getting a complete understanding here?  Thanks.
Also, this appears to be a good deal, no?  Especially the 750w version seems to get quite good reviews and I may do sli at some point so it would be a good idea to be prepared, right?

  • 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.

  • MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II/OC color

    I recently installed my new video card then I tested it by running some games. I noticed that in every game that I play, a yellow/yellowish shade is always present.
    Does anyone experience this kind of thing?
    EDIT: It is quite hard to explain but it looks like yellow is more prominent than the other colors. :(

    Also test your cable and connections with your monitor/card.What type of connector you use?
    Your problem reminds me analog VGA connection problems.Try digital DVI or HDMI with another monitor and tell us.You can try on your LCD TV if you dont have another pc monitor.
    And check your color management settings.

  • MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II - No vram or vrm heatsinks?

    Hey,
    Just bought this card today and got bit worried when i saw that there is no heatsink at all on VRM and VRAM chips. VRM specially tends to get really hot on these days gfx cards so im not sure why msi leaved vrm chips naked? Other manufacturers seems to have added heatsinks atleast for vrm and most for vram too so i find it pretty odd from msi:s side to leave those out. I wont be using this card that long time as i just bought it to be spare card while waiting GTX 570 back from warranty so im not that worried. But still makes me wonder how long lifespan these cards will have with those naked chips 

    Well i can still understand that they leaved ram heatsinks out, those dont get REALLY hot. But vrm is difference story, I have even burned my HD 4890 in past cause when i putted aftermarket cooler to it and even that actual gpu temps was really low vrm:s hitted 130c at load and just after few months of use it got broken/burned.
    But also i disagree that ram heatsinks are only gimmick. I have personally found that heatsinks on ram too does help and bit and gave bit more overcloking headroom.

  • MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II/OC Batman

    Hello MSI, first time poster here. First of all, sorry if this is the wrong section but I figured this is as good a place as any for this. :p
    So I recently bought my graphics card (roughly two weeks ago) and I see that you now bundle Batman: Arkham City with select Nvidia graphics cards. I am therefore wondering if it would be possible for me to receive a copy of said game eventho I bought it before this "deal" was announced, but a mere week or two before. Or perhaps it is my etailer I should contact and ask them the same question ?
    Thankful for any and all constructive answers,
    Markus.

    I think you should go to msi.com support page for your request although i doubt they'll grant it. This a forum where moderators who are not employees of msi are moderating. They'll refer you to msi proper.

  • MSI GTX 560 Ti Twin Frozr II/OC - Heat issue with HDMI

    Hi,
    Why does the heat goes up to almost 10-12 degree celsius when I enable HDMI output?! Anyone experience similar?! is that a common thing or is there another issue to it..

    When you "enable" hdmi are you using a second monitor at same time?
    Yes, HDMI are connected to my HDtv, but the tv arent turned on even.

  • 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:
    CPU: Intel i3 540
    Mobo: ASUS P7H55-M, BIOS Version 08.00.15
    GPU: MSI GTX 560 ti Twin Frozr II

    HDD: Hitachi HDS721010CLA332 3.5inch 1tb 32mb Sata 7200rpm
    RAM: 2x2GB DDR3 (Not sure on the model as I can't really pull my pc apart now to have a look)
    DVD/CD: Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-107D

    Hope this helps, it's only BF3 i'm getting the problems with, can run anything else perfectly

  • 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 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:

    my last post explains how i managed it.

  • User is thrown from the Application under Cluster stress test

    Hi All,
    i have ADF/ADF faces application running on WLS 10.3.5.0 Cluster Environment (with 2 nodes).
    I'm running application using in memory Session replication.
    The problem which i have is that under the stress test (about 10-20 users) sometimes user suddenly is presented with Login Screen (more rare with session expired message) ! This also can happens immediately after user login .
    That happens randomly on different part of the System. In more of the cases user is thrown independently from other users but
    sometimes all the users are thrown simultaniously.
    When the System is tested with only one user this effect appears very rare.
    What i have done is to enable Cluster and Replication debugging to see if there some errors within Http Session Replication. However there isn't any errors appeared. From the application part everything seems fine.
    I suspect that the proxy could cause a problem (by forwarding the request to secondary instead of primary server). Currenltly i'm using HttpClusterSerlvet installed by default from WebLogic Configurator on dedicated Managed Server.
    Can somebody give any advice with this ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Krasimir

    Krashmir,
    Did you find any solution for this problem. I am also facing the similar issue.

    Hey all
    Quick question. does this MSI RADEON R9 290X TWIN FROZR GAMING OC 4GB GDDR5 support the uefi bios?. also... if i have to update it, do i need to do it single or will it update both at same time as i have two of these?.
    thanks in advance sorry if it sounds like a stupid question but i really not so sure :P don't wanna screw things up:).

    Alrighty thank you that's good to hear  so it will auto choose the bios needed?, so i can switch my bios back to normal? and will boot fine?, because  i had sapphire 290x tri-vapour vt that had a switch to change to uefi mode. but i had to get them replaced as they died. and i was not sure if these msi ones where ready with uefi but yeah glad to hear that really , hopfully i get better luck with you guys i'm gona keep away from sapphire ^.^

  • Unlocking voltages on a MSI Radeon HD 7970 Twin Frozr III OC

    hi guys
    i just recently purchased a MSI Radeon HD 7970 Twin Frozr III OC  to add to m y xfx hd 7970 edition for crossfire  card works great but i've installed afterburner , my xfx 7970 voltages are unlocked but the msi voltages are 0 (not unlocked / showing)  , my buddies MSI Radeon HD 7970 Twin Frozr III OC  voltages are unlocked and im pretty sure mine should be also     what am i missing ????   please help    my xfx 7970 is water cooled , and soon my MSI Radeon HD 7970 Twin Frozr III OC  will be also  (EK block and back plate are sitting on my desk) , i'm hoping i will be able to run at least at 1300/1700  , my xfx black edition does 1475/1800   

    kinda tough when the xfx 7970 is water cooled  and soon the msi card will be included 

  • 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.

  • MSI Radeon HD 7950 Twin Frozr V2/OC BIOS update

    Have there been any BIOS updates compatible with my card? Perhaps adding Boost or (more importantly) Windows 8 UEFI features, or bug fixes? My BIOS is dated 2012-05-24, and I very much suspect there have been updates with Win8 features since that date. My card is the MSI Radeon HD 7950 Twin Frozr V2/OC, which I believe is the second revision of the MSI Twin Frozr HD 7950 line, before the Boost editions. It is, I believe, the only model in the line which used an HD 7970 pcb instead of an HD 7950 pcb. I would appreciate the latest BIOS, and if it wouldn't be too much trouble, a changelog?
    My BIOS, which I have captured using GPU-Z, can be found here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/jeq0pt
    S/N: 602-V277-05SB1205142483
    Also, if I do choose to flash, which position should my dual BIOS switch be set to?
    Thanks very much.
    Edit: Wow, got my serial number completely wrong the first time.

    I have a UEFI GOP (Windows 8 Feature) vbios for you (attached):
    Decompress the attached .rar archive with Winrar: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm
    Create a bootable usb stick (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165175.0).
    Then unpack the previously provided archive (200.rar) and put the included file (TV277MH.200) on that stick.
    Rename TV277MH.200 to 200.rom. Put the atiflash.exe also included in the archive provided on the USB stick too. Now boot from the stick.
    Type atiflash -p -f -noaper 0 200.rom [ENTER] and let it flash the vbios.
