in need of more experienced wisdom here.
I have a asus m51bc so called "essentio series" minitower that came with a asus branded OEM-only radeon hd 8760.
it does not work well. never has. has seen little use since new in 2013 because of the problem i'm trying to solve.
basically under even a moderate load the graphics card bails in an ugly way. pull the card and put in a known stable sub; in this case a humble GeForce 640 card, the system is bulletproof under heavy load. so the underlying hardware etc seems ok.
the power supply is around 450W and there are two dimm's, 6gb+6gb, and a low power wifi card in a pci slot. the processor is one of the amd fx 8-core.
how do I determine if the 8760 is at fault? benchmark/diags suite? which? source? link?
what would you suggest to try to bring the card into tolerable limits, assuming the card is not technically "faulty" ??
