Like I said, I don't currently believe this is a hardware defect: My video card
isn't even 3 years old. It's a card from Gigabyte which makes high quality
products. The temperature of the GPU is within bounds at all times (45°C to
70°C). Its GPU clock seems to be at the right frequency, whereas the memory
clock appears to be at 1/3 the supported frequency so it already is
under-clocked and more stable! Also why does only 3D ever produce the freeze,
even simple scenes that don't stress either the GPU nor the VRAM... whereas 2D
never does it even when it's intensive (eg: games, desktop compositing)?
If people believe hardware hasn't been ruled out, please suggest a GPU
stressing tool for Linux (I use openSUSE Tumbleweed) which you believe is
adequate for this situation. I no longer have Windows and can't redo my entire
setup by installing another OS, this is my main desktop on which I do my work
and activities.
I still think this is related to a driver or kernel vulnerability of some sort.
Please let me know which logs I can post or what else I can monitor to confirm
this and see exactly where and how it's happening.</pre>
