    Whenever I do a full test, it always fails on a graphics test - Primary Surface test

    It says that it might be failing due to any overclocking software
    i downclocked/reset the settings i had applied on msi afterburner and then I closed it.

    still it gives test failed

    should i be worried?

    PS: I have fraps running in background, could it be interfering?
