RMA question gtx 560 ti HAWK

if the card, can work with the default clocks ( high temps ) i should rma the card? for example at 1025 core voltage i have to use the clock at 880 and not the default 950, if i put in 1062 with 880 core clock or 950 core clock, i have high temps in memory temp ( 100+) and gpu temp (80+ in 3 minutes )
and fan coolers at 80+ in SILENT mode

switch to Peformance BIOS, also open PC case side door and retest
i tested that without side door even out of case and no major difference in temperatures!and also performance bios didnt help here is my furmark test with open side cover (80 in 6 mins ~5000 RPM):
i tested mafia 2 and almost same old results
as i said before reseller warranty company tested (out of case) and reached 80!with 100% fan~4400 RPM!obvious high temp and noisy for HAWK right?i really dont think its about air flow or ambient temp!
so could you please admit that this high temp and noisy Fan(+ that weird memory temp) is a problem and i can replace my VGA with new one with normal temperatures like this :
http://www.guru3d.com/article/msi-geforce-gtx-560-ti-hawk-review/8
then according to you i send back the VGA for replacement and if you say 80-90 is normal for a gtx 560 Ti HAWK and wont be any problem so my bad !
thank you Svet

MSI GTX 560 TI Hawk Unstable?

I have a brand new custom built PC with two MSI 560 TI Hawk cards in SLI and I have a problem with playing games on this system. I've tried Portal 2, Far Cry 2, Two Worlds 2 and The Witcher 2. All games seem unstable with comparable problems:
Random lock-ups for 10-20 seconds with audio looping
Random small jitters, frame drops and stutters, including audio stutters
Sometimes my whole system freezes so I have to push the reset button
Artifacts
Flickering parts of the horizon, sky or ground in the game
Sometimes the game runs fine for a few minutes and then the problems start happening, sometimes they are there from the beginning.
I tried to eliminate possible causes one by one to narrow out the actual problem. Even disabling SLI and running on a single card doesn't help.
Here are the things I tried:
Monitor GPU temperatures with GPU-Z: didn't show anything unusual, around 35 degrees idle to 65-70 degrees stressed
Disable SLI: didn't fix the problem
Download MSI drivers v266.44 (older version than current NVidia drivers): didn't fix it and I couldn't find the SLI option in these drivers so i switched back to v280.26
Check driver and firmware version with MSI Live Update 5: everything seemed to be up to date
Remove graphics cards: cleaning the connections and re-installing, didn't fix it
Stress the cards with FurMark: no issues detected and temperatures seemed normal (70 degrees stressed)
Lower the stock clock speed (950 Mhz) to the standard non-overclocked speed (822 Mhz): this seemed to help at first and the problems didn't occur for a while. But while i'm testing right now Portal 2 froze and stuttered a few times again. Although it seems like it happens less often. So this might be a clue to my problem. Anyway I didn't pay extra money for these overclocked cards to underclock them back to standard so I would like to make the cards run on stock settings (950 Mhz).
Here are my system specifications:
Processor: Intel Core i7 2600K 3.4 Ghz (stock speed)
Mainboard: Asus P8Z68 V-Pro
Memory: 2x Corsair Vengeance 4GB DDR3 CL9 12800 Mhz
SSD: Crucial M4 256GB SSD
HDD: 2x WD Caviar Blue - Raid 0
Graphics: NVidia Geforce GTX 560 TI Hawk 1GB SLI
PSU: Corsair TX750 V2 (750 watt)
I hope you can help me to fix this issue because I'm out of ideas right now....
Thanks in advance
Tandpastatester

Well I've tried some more things but it's all still very weird and not helping at all I will explain my findings in the order i tested the cards this time, after every card-switch i did a clean re-install of the VGA drivers:
Card-2
I've ran the OCCT test for one hour on card-2, i got zero errors and temperature never went above 76 degrees with a fan speed around 68%. After this i tried testing some games again and I found out there were still problems regardless of me saying that card-2 did fine before. In Portal 2 I was leaving the game on for a while and after a few minutes it froze with audio looping. I found out that when I use ctrl+alt+del to go to the task manager and then go back to the game it recovered and I could continue playing (weird??!). The same thing happened with The Witcher 2, freezing with audio loop and going to task manager and back let me continue playing. This happened every few minutes.
Card-1
Now it was time to try card-1 again. This time this card didn't seem to have the frequency problems I mentioned before but the problems didn't go away. Portal 2 let the game freeze within a minute, and I could use the same strategy (task manager) to continue, but this time after a few seconds it would freeze again and again. The same happened with The Witcher 2. Then I tried Far Cry 2 and this game had the same flickering problems as with card-2 but a lot worse... it was almost everywhere. Even sometimes the flickering had a checkerboard kind of shape. Now I ran the OCCT test with this card and there were no problems. Another strange thing was that when I was looking at the graph after the test, the temperature was much lower (65 degrees) and the graph line of the framerate was very straight (stable) along the test. This was different than with card 2 where the framerate and temp were higher and not so stable.
After all it appears i have comparable problems with both cards, only with card-1 they are much worse.

PSU for MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK in SLI ?

Do you know what psu should i get for 2 MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti HAWK?

Depends what other components your system consists of. >>Posting Guide<<
But here is the link to the recommended PSU for such a combo. https://forum-en.msi.com/faq/article/power-requirements-for-graphics-cards
A 42A PSU is suggested. Thus a Corsair TX650 will suffice but to leave you with additional overhead you could opt for a Corsair TX750. The Corsair PSUs have single 12V rails which are recommended and have an above average reliability and build quality.

Fixing temps issues GTX 560 TI HAWK

1) make a good air flow for the VGA, putting air from the ground, ejecting up the hot air, put a fan in the middle of the card( case )
2) download AFTERBURNER 2.1.0, NOT THE BETA
and set this values
1025 CORE TEMP
880 clock speed
2100 ram speed
check with AIDA 64 the GPU AMBIENT ( RAM TEMP OF THE CARD ) and check the voltages.
please, if somebody have this problem with the GTX 560 TI HAWK, try do this, in my computer i found a bug with the voltages in the beta afterburner
5 weeks ago i buy this card, and my problem with this card is the temp, so changin this values, i found a stable configuration to my card, now iam having a max temp of 68º with 20 city ambient temp, and 71º ( average 69) with 30º of city ambient.
please, only use afterburner 2.1.0, if u use the beta, check the voltage value in the AIDA64 if is the same of default clock, the beta is working bad
good luck
PD: for more info, see my threads and posts, all my history with this card is there, and gonna help more of one.

oh, and another tip to fix the IDLE temps
if u have a two monitors the VGA gonna work with high clock, and without power saving mode, if u use one monitor, u gonna see a temps of 28/32º
if u wanna a fast fix to the air flow case to check the temps, u can use a big fan

BF3 crashes every 5 mins - GTX 560 TI HAWK FROZR III

So Battlefield 3 looks great on this card but it crashes all the time. Nice and random. Drivers are up to date and the MSI auto bios system doesn't find any new ones. However, I hear the auto system doesn't work. Trying to get help to see why this is happening and if it does need a bios update. Card is about 3 months old.
System:
Core 2 3.2ghz
4 GB DDR3 RAM
Cosair 650W
MSI GTX 560 TI FROZR III
Display device : MSI N560GTX-Ti Hawk (P) on GF114 GPU
Display driver : 296.10
BIOS : 70.24.11.00.00
S/N: 602-v260-02sb1104176610
VBIOS: http://www.filefactory.com/file/6i0i0zyz6zwr/n/GF114_bin
MSI Afterburner readings snapshot at crash:
So everything looks good as far I as I can tell. I'm running BF3 settings a little below high. Game runs smooth with low temps. Highest I've seen so far is 51C but I haven't been able to play longer than 15 minutes in a row.
Any thoughts

Quote from: Svet on 27-March-12, 16:36:12
is your compueter stable if you use another video card?
have you tested this video card in another computer?
My system is stable and so is BF3 with other cards. I upgraded to this card from a 9800 MX2, and that plus my 4 gigs of ram would play the game fine at low-medium for hours on end.
I have tested the card in another computer but not with BF3. I may be able to do that later this week.
Any other thoughts? Does my bios look right?
Edit: Just tried exact reference clock settings with 100% fan, still only lasted 5 minutes.

Driver issue msi gtx 560 ti hawk

Which driver to use with msi 560 ti hawk currently using 275.33 but after installing battlefield 3 the game freezes in just 5 minutes of the gameplay the game requires latest drivers 285.xx from nvidia should i update to the latest driver from nvidia website.please help guys...

You can upgrade your driver. Test afterwards and see if it made a difference. Is there no patch for BF3 ? Perhaps look on the website

GTX 560 TI HAWK 82-84'c at 100% fan speed

Hello
I've noticed my hawk becoming VERY loud while playing games, Final Fantasy XIV and Deus EX: Human Revolution to name a couple. I downloaded Afterburner to see what the temperatures were and I'm astounded to see my card at 82'c at near 100% fan speed. I have the fan profile on performance mode and I have a well ventilated Cooler Master Storm Sniper with 3 200mm fans at the top, front, and side and one 120mm fan at the rear. My ambient room temperature is about 24'c so it's not my room temp.
Here's a screenshot while FF14 is running.
Touching the side support brace bar is hot to the touch.
EVERYTHING is at the default clock speed/voltage.
I think the cooler or something with the card is defective!
Should I set up a RMA ASAP?
If I should:
How long is the RMA process?
Does MSI offer an advance RMA service similar to EVGA?

Quote from: Henry on 19-October-11, 08:00:19
If you don't cause any physical damage to the card there should be no problem.
Svet, is that what you use to clean it, Jim Beam whiskey and a cross peen hammer to scrape the gooey stuff off? You should be using Everclear 190 proof instead, 151 proof at the very least.
Maybe I should check mine just to be sure. I took a look at my 465 last week and found the HSF mounting screws were loose.

At final cleaning stage for old TIM [1st used the toilet paper, a special one, its doing excellent job for the task and its tenderly]
then used this[dunno how they are called in English]:
and then since the heatisnk surface and chip start shinning with light of clean and no any sign of TIm left,
i used a drop of Jim Beam whiskey over the
then clean both surfaces again, then start cleaning them again with the same, but with dry one.

The Cross peen hammer on the photos is only for respect and i don't use it of course

What are those arrows? is that where i get to unscrew the entire cooling pipes away from the graphic board?
Just to check with you the pipes and fans are meant to be removed and installed back - right? I meant they are not glued or riveted in - correct?
The arrows shows the 4 for screws which you have to unscrew 1st.
Yes, they hold the entire heatsink+fans to the VGA's PCB

They are not riveted, only the screws hold them.
There is TIM which works like a glue, which also holds the heatink to the GPU chip surface.
Once you unscrew all 4 screws, then you need to take off the entire heatsink,
don't use force, don't push it directly in up direction, start with small slides the entire heatsink as it makes contact with GPU's chip surface where the TIM is installed and works as glue, so start slide little by little, not too much and not too sharply cause the heatsink can hit and broke some of the PCB capacitors.
Just use little and small slides until you feel that heatsink is now disconnected from the TIM/GPU surface, then take it off carefully.
You have to disconnect FAN cable from PCB as well.

GTX 560 Ti Hawk - advice to know if it ran out please

Hi,
I encounter since yesterday one of most problems others members have with their cards 560 ti (i've read lots of recent topics on the forum) :
- video kernel display driver interrupts
- every games come back to windows after some minutes
- gpu usage in afterburner after crash : 4999999999999999 !!!
Here is my config :
Asus Sabertooth P67
Core I5 2500K
corsair vengeance 1600 8GO
psu antec HCG 650W
I've played intensively with this exact config all summer long and then it doesn't work anymore.
I've tried recent and legacy nvidia drivers with driver sweeper proper uninstall.
I didn't try bios update because i'm not sure i will succeed.
Do you think i have to RMA, please ?
Thanks for your attention (and sorry for my english, i'm fench)

Hi again
Strange thing : i changed (without any hope) the position of the switch on the card. It was in center position since I bought it, and it worked very well.
- I put in through right (inside the pc) : no boot
- I put in through left (rear pc) : card works perfectly --> 4 hours of shogun 2 instead of crashing after 2 minutes.
What could be the technical explanation ?
I spent a lot of time on forums since yesterday, about games, hardware and drivers, with a lot of topics about this kind of issues. I don't know if all graphic cards have this kind of switch... any rational explanation
Thanks

GTX 560 TI HAWK bad vrm memory sensor?

Hi, i have a problem with the memory temps of this card, if i stress the GPU and Memory at the same time in 100% load, the GPU temp increased to 71 degrees and the VRM and memory to 61 degrees, after some seconds go to 77 degrees and one second later to 99+
when i close the application the gpu temp down gradually from 71 to 40 degrees and the VRM temp stay in 80/90 if in one second i enter in hibernate mode, and start againt the PC ( all in 30 seconds maybe ) the VRM temp down to 40 degrees like the GPU
what i think is a memory sensor issue
if i set the fans in USER mode, it up the RPM very high, if i dont set the fans in USER mode, the fans are very quiet
all with the after burner
iam thinking is a memory SENSOR issue, and not a physical memory issue
i changed the tim, and removed the heatsink of memory, and put all again, and the problem continue.
if is a memory sensor issue i can live with this
but if is a physical memory issue and not a sensor issue, i have to RMA the card?
I go to make a video for more details.
i type " very noise " i want say is very QUIET the fans, disabling the USER MODE FAN Profile

try do this
AFTERBURNER 2.1.0 in BETA 9 doesn't work
voltage 962
unset the fan profile mode
it works for me.. 68 max temp with a 40% fan speed, obviusly sensor of gpu ambient ( vram or memory i dont remember ) is in 99+, at now after 40 minutes of idle is in 71, i guess it be 31..
i dont know what can happend with my card with this voltage, maybe i kill she, in some days, i dont know..
but this is the only way to get a normal state to play some games..

lower gpu and vclok to 875 and 1050
The problem still the same, I already see this topic https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=159746.0 , was that because of my power supply?

Since that psu has 50A on single +12v that doesn't seem to be the issue.
Get Afterburner and check temps:
Ahh the psu exactly same with your link, I'll check temp later cz for now my cpu under repairing or reinstalling by technician, thanks for your big help, flobelix
Quote from: Svet on 02-September-12, 22:35:54
If you use another video card does your computer works stable?
have you checked CPU underload temp ?
Can you pass Prime95 testing over night without problems?
Checked memory with
What mainboard you have?
in such case VGA is not even loaded/stressed,
so possible the issue is somewhere else in your computer.
Are you using msi vga drivers for your card from msi web?
I have not used another card cz used to laptop user, and first time using desktop computer use that vcard, I'll check and test as your suggestion later cz of my reason above.
mainbord : msi Z77MA-G45
about vga driver, I used automatic update from: nvidia control panel -> help -> update, and I download then installed it become v3.xxx I didn't remember "xxx"
thanks for your big help, Svet
I'll posting again in this topic asap after my computer done for repair, cya next post. Thanks once again guys for your support

hi there
my post is similar at "MSI GTX 560 Ti HAWK Memory Temperature too high???"

so i'm there to ask an help
(sorry for my poor english)
Thanks in advance for your time!

i think, there is a problem with temperature sensor
or it is broken or ... idon't know .....
