Tankbuster 1746 Posted June 6, 2013 The 660 non ti is not really strong enough for this game, many of the problem reports have this graphics card in common but that doesn't explain the differences in time between game start and crash. Your symptoms would seem to indicate overheating. Is your GPU nice and clean. Are you overclocking anything on this system? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Punkster68 10 Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) No i don't overlock any components of my computer. & the Gpu is regularly clean. Not enough strong for this game ? but the game recommand: ArmA 3 System Requirements OS: Windows Vista 64 bit CPU: Intel Core i5 or AMD Athlon Phenom X4 RAM: 2 GB GFX: GeForce GTX 260 or Radeon HD 5770 DX: 10 HDD: 15 GB look's enough no? & Ive got a Speedfan for see the temp on the game , it's not overhearting =/ &Why should this game crash for overheating ? I'm runing crysis 3 , bf3, bioshocks , metro last light on ultra , & it don't crash... Only arma 3 crash EDIT : The motherboard / graphic & process are recents.

ozzbik 71 Posted June 6, 2013 (edited) It could also be that you powerunit (PSU) does not deliver enough power to your videocard. Try using a benchmarktool or videocard stresstest to determine if that is the problem. Vsync setting (on or off) seems to help in some cases.

Leon86 13 Posted June 6, 2013 maybe it's some other small thing in the system, some realtek audio drivers cause gamecrashes to name something. My suggestions. go to the webpage of your motherboard, download and install all the chipset driver updates listed there. turn off the steam overlay, and all other overlays. if that doesn't fix it, see if you can run prime95 (blend test) for 10 hours straight without an error. then try the benchmark tool unique heaven, let it run for 4 hours as well.

ozzbik 71 Posted June 6, 2013 Just for clarity: You did try an older version of the Nvidia driver (one or two versions back)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
