Hi

I have problem with my new desktop seti@home GPU works.

Computer does random jams ( 12-48h) ( DIsplays says that "check cabling") Reset helps only to this. No any traces on log that driver or something else on software side has failed. I contacted manufacturer of gpu ( ASUS MATRIX-R9290X-P-4GD5 ) and they said that I should test desktop with other test software ( Furmark for GPU burnin test, runned it 48 hours ) Every test passes.
On seti@home crouching , max GPU temp is 82C , on furmark it was 96C
No elsewhere are that kind of failures occured, only on seti@home GPU crouching. Cpu crounching works ok.

Computer details :

Cpu : Intel I7 4790 ( stock clocks ) (Liquid cooled)
Mb : Asus Z-97 pro gamer
memory : COrsair 1600 ddr3 16 Gb kitt
Psu : FD Newton R2 800W, 80 PLUS
GPU : ASUS MATRIX-R9290X-P-4GD5

Welcome...
The temperatures look high, but just about OK, even so I would force the fans to maximum speed to get them down a bit. Also, if possible, make sure your CPU and its associated hardware isn't getting too hot - again try forcing the fans to maximum.
These steps have helped on two of my computers that were suffering similar issues.

Hi !

Cpu temp max is 42C. Both cpu and gpu are in stock clocks.
I will test that fan max next night. Because my wife complains if she is downstairs and computer is so loud :D
