A couple things: 1) Keep a GPU temp monitor open; MSI afterburner or an equivalent. See if you get a peak temp so we have one reference point. 2) Double check that your RAM latencies are according to SPD. Check with memtest as well. 3) May also consider downclocking your GTX670 to reference clocks (915 core, down from the out-if-box OC at 1019 Mhz). Many times, factory GPU OCs aren't even stable or properly tested. | ||

Most likely culprit is your GPU temps or prolly your PSU can't handle the load. | ||

My GPU has not hit over 55 degrees Celsius, I have been monitoring my temps to make sure that it was not the cause with MSI afterburner. My CPU hit a max of 59-60 degrees when I was monitoring it with core temp, and these temps also did not occur until my system began to freeze, before the freezes they both stayed below 50 degrees. I will check my RAM latencies now that you have brought it up. I saw that it may possibly be a driver issue so I have downloaded a new beta driver from nvidia and will try to go back a few drivers if this does not fix it. If the problem continues further I will try to downclock my card as you suggested. Jaidee, I run the game at max settings but my FPS never drops below 50 in any 1v1 situation, my power consumption of my entire system never exceeds 500 watts whilst playing The Witcher 2 so I am extremely confident that my power supply is not the cause of my problems. | ||

The thing is that it never happens in any game but LADDER game. Exclusively ladder games. Wtf rly? I can play billions of customs with my friend - nothing. Everything runs smoothly. Campaign? Perfect! But playing a ladder games has a ~10% chance of crushing the client (tested in ~500 games). Like... wtf blizzard? That problem arouse after 2.0.4 btw. I checked everything. That's purely blizz software isuue. My system runs everything smoothly. Any program, any game. Temperature is always ok. It happened on win 7, and it happens on win 8. How ffs could this be a my hardware problem if it happens in specific game scenario (aka ladder game). Graphics is the same on the ladder and in custom game. Maps r the same, everything is the same. Why ffs ladder game?! So mate, just accept the truth. Nothing can be done form our side. Blizzard coders #$&@#. | ||

My GPU is chillin' at a happy 39 degrees but the UI freezes. All I can see are changes to the cursor (which still moves normally). If I minimize and restore, the client turns into a black screen with a working cursor. Typically, I can't get people to pause for long enough for it to sort itself out. It's kinda fucked, but basically, it's like playing the game blind (except I know where my cursor is). Kind of a pain in the ass, especially when I'm forced to leave a game because my opponent is being an asshole and won't give me 2 or 3 mins. | ||

After all, it used to work right. I don't know about you, but my SC2 won't even launch if something on my computer is out of date. Rolling back a driver is no exception. Whenever I do that, my SC2 Agent Updater gets stuck in the "Updating Blizzard Launcher" phase. Shit, I JUST right now got disconnected from BNet in the middle of a game because my nVidia Auto-Updater has a slightly newer driver available. Fantastic! | ||

Graphics have frozen a few times in campaign after UI patch in WoL, sound keeps going and I can still hear battles and interfaces noises when I move the mouse around. Graphics have frozen in ladder, game keeps going otherwise (I can send messages, pause/unpause, etc. but I can't see anything). I managed to get it to come back after pausing by first alt-tabbing out of the game and then locking windows and then unlocking. I've seen this occur on Suppy's stream as well. Specs: Windows 7 64bit i5 3570K GTX 660 | ||

I have nearly the same Problem, for me it looks like the Problem occurs more often in Replay while increasing or decreasing the gamespeed. The game Freezes and my Pc seems not to react for a few seconds on Keyboard input as well, nevertheless VoiceChat for example works totaly fine, during this period. After around 10-15 seconds (sometimes even longer) the Pc does eveything you wanted to do him before while you hit the Keyboard and the game goes on too. Yet another issue, haha.. This one is probably just sc2 behaving badly with loading. You shouldn't experience it if you already watched the replay start to finish and go back | ||

Are there any workarounds or other nonsense for this? It really seems like a bug in the game, or some obscure hardware interaction.. | ||
