Hi, I'm having an issue with my card recently where the PC will crash randomly during games with a red screen crash , then reboot also red screen. Sometimes the next reboot will solve itself. Using Sapphire 7970 Vapor X GHZ 6GB.

If like one month , it will happen once or twice when you are not looking for it. I've tried 3dMark / Heaven/ Valley for 10++ hours no issue. Then sometimes play even low intensive game like DOTA 2 or CSGO the red screen crash occurred.

Tried with 2 different PC also random occurrence , both PSU 700W++ 80+ ratings, Temps all around 70c.

I wonder if Sapphire will do a RMA for me as it is hard to replicate it. Attached is a screenshot of my issue. Thanks.

Anyone have a place to recommend to buy thermal pads ? Plan to replace my old Vapor-X 7970, since it seems to run hotter than normal.

The one here https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/739435 does not sell 0.5mms =(

Another question, it is safe to use 1.0 mm pads where the original is 0.5mm ?
