I've been running this card a couple months now and idle temps are always 60-63 and load temps are always 100-103.
These seem really high and I've grabbed the temperatures from various programs that all report the same thing. I have yet to try to reseat the card, etc, but that is my next step.
I've read that temps should be quite a bit lower than this and I'm worried about the longevity of my card.
Edit: Reseated card, no change; removed HS and re-applied thermal paste and still no change. Not really sure what to do now.

After all my searching on the internet for hours, I have never read this problem or this fix.
However, I re-did the thermal paste again to be safe, but then I used a different screw hole to mount it down. I think I might have been using the wrong one that wasn't in line with the card, which may have been causing slight warp, or enough that the heatsink wasn't dissipating the heat properly. Get perfect temperatures now. 60-70 depending on the game under load.
However, might want to mention this to people that try everything and never seem to figure it out.

N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC ----- No Boot / Blue Screen

Hello all,
  I recently purchase a brand new N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC. Previous to installing the card I had a gt250 with the latest Nvidia drivers installed (285.62). I installed the n570 and booted up no problems. I was able to see the new card installed in device manager and also confirmed it in afterburner. However, I wasn't able to set or view the voltage settings even after enabling in preferences and restarting afterburner. Although, the remaining settings / stats seemed to work fine. I was also able to do a full kombuster (ultra settings) benchmark with no problems, receiving a decent score and topping out temps in the high 50's I think. I also played a few games and turned up settings with no trouble.
  When I rebooted my machine as the windows load screen popped up I got a BSOD and an error referencing nvlddmkm.sys. All reboots there after either failed to the same BSOD error or rebooted the machine. Booting into safe mode had no problem as did booting into normal mode if I uninstalled all nvidia drivers first. As long as I boot into safe mode or there's no drivers installed it doesn't fail.
  I've tried every version of the nvidia drivers I can find. 286.62, the newest 290 beta drivers, the 266 versions that came on the cd and multiple 270's version that were noted the most stable in internet forums...all produce the same results. I then updated the bios on my motherboard to the latest. I also reinstalled a fresh copy of win7 x64, and ran all system updates include service pack 1. I did all those updates with my 250 installed. After I had a solid system I put in the n570 and rebooted. I again had a perfect boot and was able to access the card (not the voltage via afterburned or any info via live update 5). I was able to run benchmarks etc once again. Upon a reboot, it failed back to the BSOD again. I repeated the multiple driver tests, all failed the same.
  If anyone could suggest something other than RMA I would be happy to give something else a try. It seems silly to RMA a card that works so well on first boot until I reboot windows. But I'm out of ideas...
System specs:
N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC
Intel Core i7 950
6gigs Ram
730 watt power supply (w/ dual pci-e power connectors)
Gigabyte x58a-ud3r rev2 (newest bios - standard clock speeds - default voltage settings for pcie)
Win7 x64 Service pack 1 (all windows updates)
Thanks for any help.

Also, if it helps to note, on the initial install (both times) the card was stable for hours until I shut down and rebooted. If it were a power issue wouldn't it be unlikely to be stable for such a long time (even during stress tests) and then not even be able to load windows correct after a reset? Seems like a driver issue to me, however as I've said I've tried them ALL haha.
Thanks for the help

Driver for N560GTX-448 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC -l- split

I bought the card about four weeks ago and just now I had the opportunity to test it.
When I installed the video card in my PC, the device manager appears only a standard VGA video card. When I installed the driver, Device Manager showed a yellow exclamation on Nvidia's GeForce GTX 560 Ti saying "Windows has stopped this device becouse encounter some problems (error 43). I tried running some games but I could not open them, and with some drivers the screen was filled with artifacts
I tried various drivers on my two PCs, from one that comes with the video card to the 295.73 driver, and each time the same warning on device manager. Can anyone help solve this or may I do a RMA to MSI?
My systems:
AMD A3500
Gigabyte A75M-D2H
4Gb RAM Kingston DDR3
SevenTeam 550W.
Intel Core2Quad 9400
Gigabyte EP43-DS3L
8Gb RAM Corsair
SevenTeam 750W
Thank you.

You sure your PSU has enough amps on the 12V rail and you connected the PCIE power connectors properly ?
Have you checked your Motherboard's BIOS revisions for updates regarding the later video cards ?
Your PCIE Bus interface should be 2.0 X 16. Have you reseated the card properly and disabled the on board graphics in your BIOS ?
My PSU is a SevenTeam 750ZAF with 750W. I used it to do SLI of my 9800GTX+ in the other computer and never had problems with it. I doubt that this could be my problem.
The GA-EP43-DS3L already has the ultimate BIOS and I did the update on the GA-A75M-D2H BIOS. Nothing new, the problem persist.
Anyone of my boards does not support PCI-Express 2.0 but this is not a requisites for work of the video board like said the MSI page:
http://www.msi.com/product/vga/N560GTX-448-Twin-Frozr-III-Power-Edition-OC.html#?div=Feature
"PCI Express 2.0 doubles the bandwidth of previous generations of PCI express up to an astonishing 16Gb/s. This maximizes the performance of current graphics cards in today's most demanding games and applications. PCI Express 2.0 products are fully compatible with mainboards with other versions of PCI Express."

MSI N560Ti Twin Frozr II OC Edition Temp to high

Hello svet, im from argentina too
Ive a problem with a MSI N560 GTX - TI Twin Frozr II / OC edition (1024 M )
Serial N: 602-v238-220b110905319
Like 4 months ago, one of the original fans from the cooler just broke up (stop working) so i got a Deepcool 4600 in replace
(this monster)
After installing in that moment the new cooler, temps went down like a champ (60ª full load temp)
A few days ago, i decided to recheck my temp again only to see how are the things going, and i found something weird
The GPU Temp was rising till 100º c in full load.
That was something imposible becouse in that case , the gpu will just stop working and the system will shutdown. So i decided to check the things , open up my V9 Black edition case, and check the thermal paste (artic silver 5) in the GPU. Nothing strange, i just reapply the tim and installed the vga again in place
Well , things went the same deal like before. Gpu hitting 100ª in like 8 - 9 seconds after opened a game, every time i just hit ALT TAB and drop to ws, the temp goes down to 35ª in like , i dunno, 3 seconds or less. Tab back in game, and after 5 - 6 seconds went up again
Just formated, installed clean drivers, same deal, but i managed to hit 80ª this time in cs:go (just to test) with vsync on tripple buffer , max settings and MAX_FPS 45
After a while (maybe less than a minute) temp hit again the 90º wall, and it was to late to keep testing.
Is it posible that a sensor is damaged? couse i didnt notice the heat that excesive inside the case, i mean i put my hand over the VGA (not touching, only hovering over) and the vga was hot but not at 100º def.
Is it posible for a card to cold that quickly? (from 100 to 30 in 5 seconds).
Can my bios be faulty?

btw this is the attachment

MSI R6870 Twin Frozr II Random Crashes

Hello,
I have had an MSI R6870 Twin Frozr II video card for the past year, and it has been operating without problems for most of that time. I have been slowly upgrading my computer over past 5 years, but keeping the same motherboard and CPU. A few months ago I started having issues with it:
While playing video games or browsing the internet the video drivers crash and recover after a few seconds at random times, approximately once every half an hour. 30% of the time, the card crashes and doesn't recover at all, with a black screen, prompting a restart of the system.
Last month I have rebuilt my PC: kept the same the video card, 750W power supply (both 1 year old) and all my hard drives. I reinstalled the same version of Windows 7. I made sure to take precautions against static in the process. However the problem persists.
Because I have my power button set to a restart, I am able to have the computer perform a soft reboot every time when the screen goes black, rather than forcing a hard reset, so to me this means the new CPU, Motherboard and RAM are working OK. Also on occasion switching my monitor cable between the two DVI outputs brings the image back.
Here are some of the other things I have tried so far unsuccessfully:
Updating the motherboard and bios drivers to the latest version
Using a tool to delete and reinstall latest ATI drivers (12.9)
Using ATI beta drivers (12.11b)
Using both windows and 3rd party memory check tools (both came back OK)
Changing RAM settings from 1600 to 1333.
Underclocking the video card (although it runs pretty cold and I have a dedicated fan installed right underneath it).
I will welcome any other suggestions.
Thank you in advance,

Here is an update on my situation:
I went out a bought a new PSU, Antec HCG-620M, but the problem didn't go away. I'm still trying to keep up with the latest drivers. However most games that require high performance (i.e. Witcher 2 out of the older, more stable games) remain unplayable due to fairly regular random video card crashes. Older games with lower specs play fine though. I have also been running SpeedFan in the background and have seen an occasional spikes in the video card's operating temperatures (as high as 81C) but crashes occur at any temperature.
Help would still be appreciated.
Thanks,

MSI R6870 Twin Frozr II/OC annoyng artefacts

Hello. I've got a strange issue with my radeon 6870. Every time i play a game a small white flashes appears in random area of a screen. From 2-4 mm (Crysis, Bulletstorm and Fallout 3) to ~ 1-1,5 cm (Napoleon: Total War).I cant post a screenshot because it happens really fast (just like someone hiding in a trees with a camera). In Crysis 2 and Bad Company 2 instead a small dots a large transparent nearly visible spots appears from time to time.
My spec
AMD Phenom II X4 945 // Gigabyte 890GPA-UD3H rev 2.1 // MSI R6870 Twin Frozr II/OC (factory overclocked to 920MHz core) // 2x2 Gb DDR3 1333 Samsung // 500Gb SATA-III Western Digital WD5002AALX // 1 Tb SATA-II Hitachi HDS721010CLA332 // Thermaltake Toughpower 600 W // Pioneer optical drive // Coller Master CM690 II Advanced. Windows 7 Ulimate x64
All components are running at their stock speeds. Max GPU temperature i've ever seen ~78 celsius
I've tried overclock and downclock my VGA, fresh Windows install, 11.2, 11.3, 11.4 EP with no effect.
Maybe someone have got any ideas how to deal with that?
Thanks in advance.
ps. All driver seetings are on their default values I' not native speaker so... many pardons for my english

. Allredy have tried with Corsair TX750 half an hour ago. No effect. Is it posible that my mother board causing this? Or maybe i should try to flash VGA bios? Where can i get new bios for the card
You can test it in another machine

Does N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC have OCP?

Hello,
(1.) does the MSI's N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC VGA have OCP, since it utilizes custom PCB and, compared to reference, has more VRMs?
Any URIs would be appreciated.
Thank you very much.
EDIT:
Hi again,
I wish to add two subquestions:
2. Does OCP (for the GTX500 series, in general) affect Kombustor, given the fact that it's based on FurMark?
3. Does "Xtreme burn-in mode" in Kombustor and FurMark bypass the OCP?
Thank you.

Quote from: Svet on 16-March-12, 18:35:01
Yes, all cards have such
If its Disabled it will effect anywhere
No
Excuse me, Sir, I do not understand what you mean by "If its Disabled it will effect anywhere".
My understanding is that OCP used to throttle down heat generation and performance of OCCT, FurMark, and the like, but ever since ForceWare 267, it applies to every application. What do you mean by "Disabled"; did you mean enabled? I apologize for my confusion, Sir.
I remember that GPU-Z had a mode to disable the OCP (/GTX580OCP), then the newer ForceWare denied the disable, possibly thereafter TPU countered and reworked their mod to bypass the OCP again (/GTX500OCP); judging from the previous sentence, it should be possible to disable the OCP throttling via a software tweak (not just hard-modding the PCB), and I wondered whether Kombustor/FurMark implemented this software-based solution into the "Xtreme burn-in mode", since, for example, Kombustor displays the "Unlocking power draw will increase graphics card workload." warning when one selects the "Xtreme burn-in mode". The bottom line is that I only want to learn what "Xtreme burn-in mode" is really all about, could you, please, explain its concept to me?
P. S.: I do not challenge you; I'm only trying to learn. Thank you for your help; I truly appreciate all the time and effort you vest into these forums; you're a star!

MSI N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC memory clock?

I have had an MSI N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC for about 6 months now and have used MSI Afterburner to monitor temps etc. Today I used it to lower my overclocking as others had said Ghost Recon Future Soldier doesn't crash if you take it off.
If you look at the MSI product page for the card (the forum won't let me post a link to it!?) you can see the Memory Clock Speed(MHz) says 4000 yet in Afterburner mine said 2000Mhz and the slider was in the middle. I am pretty sure there is no multiplier at work here so mine wasn't being overclocked?
Any ideas? I have reduced it down to 1800Mhz and GRFS doesn't crash anymore but can I take it up to 4000Mhz safely in future? I do not want to overload the card.

you have multiply the memory value x2 to get the effective speed

N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC

Hello,
I have exactly the same issues like the OP.
I bought my video card (N570GTX Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC) 3 days ago and my video card is showing exactly the same symptoms as described by the OP.
I was able to play 2 evenings after hours of problems where my computer system was showing the same artifacts immediately after turning it on. When the system succeeded to boot to Windows the nvidia driver kept crashing over and over again if I did not receive blue screens.
Surprisingly after booting again and again and again and... the system was eventually stable to play 2 hours. After shutting down and turning the computer on again the same problems reoccur.
I did not RMA the card so far because I was trying to isolate the conditions where the card is running stable. I was not successful so far.
My nvidia 8800 GTX works like a charm. All, and I really would like to point that out, all other components are 6 weeks old! Last component I exchanged because of the graphics issues was the PSU. After exchanging the PSU the problem was gone for 15 mins.
@RelevantToSome: Looks like I am using the same memory like you... Compatibility issue?

Quote from: Bernhard on 06-October-12, 05:51:32
Test your 570 in another know working system with a similar GPU.
Are you talking about a similar CPU or GPU?
Of course, both is not available!
Quote from: Bernhard on 06-October-12, 05:51:32
My initial suspicion is a PSU or the card itself.
Quote from: Bernhard on 06-October-12, 05:51:32
Yes, on paper the PSU should be OK, but it may not have the available amps as claimed, i.e. could be defective.
At least it has enough amps to run the card and while measuring power consumption my whole system sucks 392 watts, ~140 watts less than the PSU manufacturer claims for the 12V rail alone. And the PSU does not really seem defective because when the system manages to boot up it runs without problems hours and I would expect the system would run under full pressure even 24 hours.
Quote from: Bernhard on 06-October-12, 05:51:32
If the card works on another system, then test your PSU on the other system.
I have no other system available to disassemble completely. I have 2 PSUs here. Both show the same symptoms...
I purchased this PSU because I also thought my PSU might be defective...
Quote from: Bernhard on 06-October-12, 05:51:32
We can't support your MB, but your BIOS may need an update. Check the MB manufaturers BIOS release notes.
Just for interest, what is the relation between BIOS update and a card showing artifacts immediately after turning the computer on?
Ofc I will flash my BIOS just to sort that out...

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 ^^

Two displays for MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC graphics card ?

Is it possible to have two displays simultaneously connected to this graphics card:
http://www.msi.com/product/vga/R6950-Twin-Frozr-III-Power-Edition-OC.html#?div=Overview
The card has two DVI-outputs "DVI Output: 2 (Single-Link DVI-D x1, Dual-Link DVI-I x1)". I can use one display at a time and the second display only shows "No signal" error. I would like to use two displays when playing PC games, is it possible with this craphics card? Both my displays have VGA connector cables, and they are connected to the card with an VGA/DVI adapter.

Quote from: Svet on 19-January-12, 22:12:52
what monitors you are using and what resolutions you're trying to use?
Both monitors are old models: 1) Panasonic PanaFlat PF90 2) acer AL 707.
I'm not sure what resolution I was using on acer when I tried to connect both monitors, but now I'm using PanaFLat with 1280 x 1024. Maybe I should try to set them both on 1024 x 768 and try again.

NGTX570 Twin Frozr iii Power Edition/OC freezing problem

Hello,
I have problem with my card. In some games at total random time my screen freeze and I get some little white "bolts" all over my screen, display driver stop working and i must do ctrl+alt+del to exit that process or sometimes i cannot do anything and i must restart PC on button. Look at picture which are posted and u will see whats happen. I have installed latest drivers, but i still have that problem.
I never clocked graphic card, its on default settings.
I bought this card 27.12.2011 and have this problem from the start.
My config is:
CPU AMD Phenom 2 X4 965
Motherboard M4A87TD
NGTX570 Twin Frozr iii Power Edition/OC
Kingston DDR3 12GB
Chieftec 650W
Regards,
Veljko

I didn't pay attention because it doesn't often happen. I still have guarantee - for 2 years, but the problem is that if i send my card back they will check the card and the problem may not happen and they will send me my card back. I have mentioned before that the problem occurs at random time.
One thing more, when I test the card in hard tests like Furmark and Kombustor that problem never happens. It occurs in video games which are not very demanding. I would ask you if it is usual that the temperature is always over 70 degrees in every game (even over 80 when playing new demanding games). I ask you that because i have read on various forums that the temperature doesn't increases that much.
Thanks
