I am running into issues with my build recently.
Basically, it appears that under high GPU load activities, such as video editing, gaming, and 3D rendering, my computer will randomly go to black screen, and the fans will instantly ramp up to 100% speed. Note that if audio is playing, it will continue to play normally until the computer is turned off.
- My first theory was that the card was overheating. My fans never spin, even under high load.
- My second theory is that because the card is supporting two 4k monitors, that any extra load ontop of that can cause the card to become unstable.
- My third theory is that the card itself is just defective
- The Fourth theory is that the card is having issues with power, however, this one is at the bottom of the list because I purchased a power supply with enough wattage for my whole system.
So far I have tried using VEGATAB for controlling the fans, but that didn't seem to do anything. Also, when I unplug one of the 4K monitors, the likelihood of random crashes reduces in frequency greatly.
I am running Mac OSX 10.14.5 Mojave with Clover install
I am wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I have seen similar things but nobody seems to have had the exact same problem as me. It is starting to get frustrating because I rely on this computer for video editing and it has made the process 10x more time consuming because of these random crashes. If anyone can help me get to the bottom of this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
