Hey guys, it's me....again. Now as this is my 3rd RMA, I'm completely fed up....I have just got my GPU back, 3 days in. I get the exact same thing that happened as before, with my first card I sent off.

Now obviously I'm wondering what on earth could be causing this, because how on earth could 2 GPUs suffer the exact same thing? When they're just returned and literally weeks / days they come up with that.
What else could be the problem? I've just installed another driver, and I'm praying to god that somehow it is the driver.....however I've done this before, I've got a new OS however and maybe something will be different, who knows.
Please, what else could be causing this problem? I get this only under load, whilst in-game. I get no warning, no beeping, just a face full of lovely fuzzy pink lines, and the joy of complete disappointment.

I really have no idea what can be causing this now, it just seems like a GPU problem. But 3GPUs to go wrong so soon? Seems totally stupid to me.
