R6950 Twin Frozr II OC gfx issues

Hello
I've been having issues with my 6950 twin frozer ii oc.  When I launch any of my games, the graphics in the games is glitched to start with, and i see small, squares of textures flickering for first 30s or so then they disappear.   If anyone is experiencing similar texture glitching please let me know.

My power supply is 580 Watts which is more then minimum requirements for this card.

  • MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III PE strange heat issue!

    Hi guys,yesterday i've decided to upgrade my PC with brand new Sandy Bridge configuration,but after the first boot i've had a very unpleasant surprize with my VGA card .Right after power on my PC everything went good,display was on and showing the Bios Setup screen,but after 30-40 seconds my the VGA fans started to spin at full speed and restarted the system but after that my 40" lcd display was only showing  "no signal detected" .From this point i've tried everything to get my system going,i've disabled the onboard VGA,swapped RAM modules,toggle every PCI and PCI-E add-on cards,bios reset but the issue was still there.
    A couple of times i've managed to get into Windows OS but after 10 second the PC restarted again.I'm not really sure what's the issue here but i do noticed that after 10 second from boot the VGA card is getting very hot (can touch it only for 1 second) but only in the area near the power connectors,next to the capacitors...
    Here's my configuration:
    - CPU: Intel i5 2500K
    - MoBo: Asrock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3
    - RAM: Corsaire Vengence 8GB (2x4GB) DDR 1866
    - PSU: Enermax Liberty 620 W
    - VGA: MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III PE
    - Case: Cooler Master HAF-X
    BTW,my old MSI Radeon HD4870 is working with the above configuration and i also tested the MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III PE on 3 different PCs same had same issue,so if you guys have any idea about this issue please post here.

    Yeah,i've already compiled the RMA form with the retailer but it doesn't have this VGA in stock anymore.I really hope it won't need months for the RMA procedure.

    Had to manually power down and restart. Rebooted, everything was fine. Started playing Rift, no troubles. About an or 2 in, same thing, game freeze. Happened 4 times in the course of about 30 mins. I decided to call it for the night.
    Today, so far, 3 hangs, 2 were from Rift, 1 was from World of warcraft. All scenarios was i was sitting in the main city talking with guildmates. No stress or mad activity going on. Noticed my temp was hovering 47-49C.
    Not sure what the problem is. Looking for some help/answers.
    Note, that nothing was tinkered with and everything would be stock settings.

    I was previously using the radeon 5770 from sapphire that i got last year and wanted something beefier. Unfortunately my case is the only one large enough to have room for this card.

    It can PSU fault or driver issue, or VGA failure
    Remove current VGA drivers with >>Driver Sweeper<< in Safe Mode
    then install drivers from msi web for your card, then see how its goes

  • MSI R6950 Twin Frozr II Radeon HD 6950 not filling screen

    hi, i have a custom computer with a MSI R6950 Twin Frozr II Radeon HD 6950. when using said card with my 23'' Samsung sync master SA550 there is about 3/4in of black outside of the screen that is not being filled. it is not the monitor as i have tried it on 2 others and had the same problem. I am using an HDMI connection. i feel like it might be a driver problem or something but I've tried everything I can think of with no luck...... any help you could give me would be great, thanks.

    ...then go into the AMD Vision Engine Control Centre along the left hand side, look for "My Digital Flat-Panels" click this and in the new options find "Scaling Options (Digital Flat-Panel)", move the slider right till it says 0% and this should fix the issue. Good luck!

  • MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III PE/OC "No Signal"?

    Hi guys!
    I've just bought the MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III PE/OC, but my monitor dosent recieve any signal at all. Both power cables are plugged in, and my PSU should be big enough to manage it.
    The slot works fine with my old card, a HD 5450, so is my card faulty?
    Win 7 32 bit
    Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-H55M USB3 rev 2.0
    Proccesor: Intel Core i5 2.80
    PSU: OCZ600MXSP 600W
    Memory: 4GB

    The card has two power cables, which both are plugged in. If not, a red LED lights up in the card.
    I've just removed the power cable form the mobo and removed the battery from the mobo to do a clear CMOS, but unfortunately with the same results. The fans are running, but my screens says "No Cable" and goes completely black 

  • 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.

    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.

  • R6950 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC goes to full power when in idle

    My R6950 Twin Frozr III Power Edition/OC acts normally, when i use the PC. When it goes to idle, the card heats up and turns the speed to 100%. When i remove the drivers there's no problem. I've tried with the different drivers there and on the AMD page.

  • R6950 Twin Frozr III 2gb Problem

    Hi guys, got a problem with one of my cards that is in Crossfire..
    Setup - i7 920, 20gb Gskill DDR3 1600mhz, Asus P6T Deluxe, Corsair AX950w 80+, 2 x  R6950 Twin Frozr III 2gb Catalyst 12.3
    Problem - These card's have been fine for around 6 months working in crosfire. Last couple of days defects have started to appear and now one of the card fails to be reckognized. I have taken out the card and tried it in another system and the system wont even post. I have tried switching the fan profile to see if this helps but still no post. 1st card is working perfectly in my main system and other systems I have.
    Even bigger Problem - The shop where I have purchased the cards "SELEXIUM" last year is now bankrupt. Here is the article http://www.societe.com/societe/sarl-nextware-504241654.html
    So I really dont know what to do, I have logged a ticket with msi to see if they can help..
    Does anybody have experiance with MSI and returning cards directly to them in Europe ? Will they accept a RMA from a End User ?

    for europe, its only via reseller.
    contact near MSI office and explain the situation.

  • R6950 Twin FROZR III Fan Replacement

    Simple question, Where can I buy a replacement fans for this card?  One of the fans has 2 broken fins and the other is not spinning @ full speed so I get vibration from one and the other can't cool enough.

    dunno if r6950 Twin FROZR III has reference PCB or not,
    you can ask msi at: >>How to contact MSI.<<
    About the aftermarket cooler, you should ask the aftermarket cooler company, they should have compatibility list

  • R6950 Twin Frozr III Issue

    Ok, brand new build P8P67 Pro (Rev 3) initially boots up fine and I install windows. The next day I get no output to monitor with my MSI 6950 Twin Frozr III, also motherboard is beeping to indicate no VGA detected. Put it in second PCI-E slot and bingo, it works but it's at 8x.
    Presume mobo faulty, got an MSI Z68A GD65, I get the exact same problem, won't show anything in primary slot but will run fine in secondary at 8x.
    I really don't understand what the problem could be if not the graphics card in this case.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Rest of the spec:
    i5 2600k (stock speed)
    Corsair TX 650,
    Kingston HyperX Genesis Grey 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz.

    reseat the card into the slot and ensure that's filled very well into the PCI-E slot
    also ensure that all power cables are connected to the VGA.

  • MSI Twin Frozr GeForce 770 Compatibility Issue?

    My new system crashes intermittently during any game. I normally can play for about a half hour but the times very greatly. Also the way the game crashes varies. Sometimes the game will just shut game. Sometimes it will freeze. And Sometimes the computer will turn right off.
    I think it might be a compatibility issue because when I put my other video card (A GeForce 550ti) into this computer it runs fine. Also when I run the GeForce 770 in my other computer it seems to run fine there too.
    Do you guys think this is a hardware compatibility issue? Or do you have any troubleshooting suggestions? Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • 570 GTX Twin Frozr II OC - Stability issues with newest drivers

    Hi there,
    Been noticing lately that i've come across a nasty 280.26 Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding issue with my 570 SLI.
    Some people running the 280.26 drivers have also reported, while others have said increasing voltage has fixed their problem.
    Could I get some support in finding out how/what to set my voltages too?
    The cards are 570 GTX Twin Frozr II OCs. I did get a bios update earlier in the year after some problems, they were clocked at the wrong speed. (786mh instead of 750mhz)
    GPU-Z shows im running bios 70.10.17.00.03
    Is there a newer one?
    Thanks

    You say the voltage range is upto 1.25mv , but how can a game be unstable but not make use of the 1.25mV barrier? Who is responsible for using the extra voltage when required?
    People state they are increasing their mV to make some DX 11 games stable, but how?
    If what your telling me, is that the cards are already set to use an increased voltage, why aren't they doing so?
    As you can see, under load.... the higher mV range isn't used so the overclocks on the cards are pointless. The more games which come out that use DX11, the more problems you will get.
    If it's down to drivers, someone needs to get onto nVidia from a corporate or business level because they won't respond to the end user, they just blame you guys for everything.

    Quote from: Arthur Hucksake on 02-September-11, 21:09:00
    To add to that, I have to set the voltage to 1.00mv in Afterburner and to get Deus Ex HR more stable with the 280.26 drivers.
    So what gives? Is it safe to update the bios to 1.00mv somehow?
    Why are these problems only getting found out with the 280.26 drivers?
    Where does the customer stand here? There's a direct problem with power handling by all parties involved.

  • N580GTX Twin Frozr II/OC Stability Issues

    Hello! I've recently purchased an MSI N580GTX Twin Frozr II/OC and I'm having the much talked about stability issues (CTD, black screens etc.). From what I've read it seems like the best solution is to tweak the voltage in Afterburner until you find a stable solution and then after thorough testing, request a custom BIOS flash.
    Is this the best way to go? I'm presently at work so I can't actually get started right away  but I'd like to have a game plan in hand for when I get home tonight. Currently my card clock settings should be what they were out of the box although I've also read that some cards didn't come over clocked so what it says on the box might not be exactly what it's running at. I can look up the various card details this evening if it's necessary.
    Also I'm not super concerned if I had to down clock or if the card didn't come over clocked. I just want to get it running stably
