vertical lines in Kmark combined test?

[NiBlade]

i'm getting these vertical lines with a very moderate OC, is this normal for this test? they only appear in the Kmark "combined" section of the test, as seen in the picture, i just want to make sure its not the ram on the card, as it is brand new.

has anyone ran this test before? because the lines dont exactly look like artifacts..? are they normal?

running from MSI Kombustor

i have the Zotac AMP! GTX570

This happens when I run the test as well, I am running an MSI GTX 570 Twin Frozr III. I think it may just be part of the test maybe?

I'm pretty sure i got the same thing when i tested a card a few months ago, it seemed to just be part of the test, although it did worry me at first as well!

I just realised i still had the software installed so gave it a quick run. I do indeed still get those lines with my new card so i'd say it's definitely part of the test, possibly thrown in purely to terrify users.

good to know, should send them an email calling them douchebags

Just be happy it's not your card causing the issue my friend

I was worried this was going to turn into another broken hardware thread, I'm very glad for you that it did not!

Cheers,
