Hi! I have a PWM pin grounded Inno3D GTX 1070Ti X2V2(small pcb). I wanted to try another gpu fans, it got the fans spin up fully than i shutted down my the pc to put back the default fans. After that the gpu didn't post, and fans didn't spin.(The ground can be due a bad solder around the fans that i wanted to try, but that's not the point, i already disconnected the fans) Anyone have a schematics or any tip to fix it?

Hi everyone, first time posting on the forum I am looking into upgrading my rig with a new GPU. Current setup: i5 8400 2x8GB DDR4, non XMP Asus Strix R9 380 OC 4GB Samsung Odyssey G5 32" 1440p monitor I am currently considering 2 used GPUs: GTX 1070ti - 210 USD (Gainward Ghost variant) or RTX 2070 - 260 USD (MSI Gaming Z variant) For my current needs, i believe that the 1070ti might be sufficient for my current needs, but the 50 USD difference makes 2070 compelling for a bit of futureproofing. Just for context, i am aware that the upgrade from R9 380 is very noticable and basically anything will be an upgrade and a half, but i want to make a purchase and be content for the next 3-5 years at least. (After all, i am still getting 50+ FPS on the titles i like to play with the 380, with some (slowly increasing) degradation of details ) Which card would you suggest? I want my purchase to be the best possible bang for buck, of course. RTX is not something i am too much interested in ( i am aware that the FPS drawbacks are quite high in many cases), but the DLSS support makes a case for the 2070, since i plan on playing with it - upscaling to 1440p from 1080p. Thank you in advance :)

So I’ve had this Asus Turbo GTX1070ti 8G for about one and a half years now in daily use, I’ve noticed those kinds of darker almost like wet spots on it and some dust has gotten stuck to it like it would be sticky, I have no idea what it is since there is 0% it’s any kind of liquid. Those spots could have formed since I do kinda run the gpu hot like 75-80c while playing games multiple hours a day but they kinda worry me so I’m asking here.

Hello, I purchased the new Battlefield 2042 and saw that my CPU was always at 100% usage and my GPU(GTX 1071ti) only around 35% usage. So I decided it was time to change the CPU and some other parts. I put my new parts together today and when I start Battlefield 2042, I get to the menu my Pc restarts right away. It used to work with my old parts. I tried BF5 and I'm not having the issue, I can get to the menu. I will try to play BF5 tomorrow to see if something happens. When I start Battlefield I get to the menu and my PC reboots. When I had my old CPU, motherboard, RAM and SSD I was able to play no problem. You can see my old parts on my LTT profile. My new parts are the following: - Ryzen 7 5800x - G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz CL16 Dual Channel Desktop Memory Kit (F4-3200C16D-16GVKB) - ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming AMD AM4 (3rd Gen Ryzen) ATX gaming motherboard - WD Black SN750SE 1TB PCIe Gen4 NVMe M.2 2280 Read:3600MB/s,Write: 2830MB/s SSD (WDS100T1B0E) I check my temps of my CPU and GPU and everything is fine. I did a stress test with AIDA on my CPU and at 100% it gets to max 65c. Also did a stress test on my GPU and it doesn't get higher than before (Around 63c). I after stress test the CPU and GPU at the same time and everything is fine no crash and good temps. Nothing is overclocked for now, didn't change anything in the BIOS either. My GPU driver is also up to date. I told my self it's probably not that the game is not installed properly because it reboots the whole computer and not just the actual game. I don't think it's my PSU (EVGA SuperNOVA G2 750W 80 Plus Gold) that's not strong enough, unless I'm mistaken. I don't think my new motherboard and CPU pull that much more power than my old ones. It really sucks, really wanted to test this new setup with Battlefield 2042. If you have any questions feel free to ask me. Hopefully someone can help me with this. Thanks in advance guys!

I overclocked my nvidia 1070ti. I did +225 on the core, and +700 on memory. soon after the screen went black. Note that i can't boot without the gpu, because i have a cpu without a integrated gpu (i3 10100f). Also i can't get into the BIOS for some reason, (gigabyte B460M) any help?

so i feel this is the worst situation where the gpu is now just dead but hoping someone can give some info to troubleshoot and hope that isnt the case. so i tried playing ome games however as soon as the game would load up my pc would just restart. no error messages or anything. After a few times i saw my gpu temps were shooting up to over 90 to which i was told it could be the thermal paste as its an old + 2nd hand gpu. so i took off and reapplied the thermal paste on the gpu. however now it will even get any power. when i turn on the pc the gpu will start up for a few seconds then just stop. the rest of the pc will post. but the gpu will not show up in task manager. and not output any single. any info or things to try will be amamzing. thanks in advance.

Heyo i have a rather strange question. I have an existing build cpu: i7-4770k @4.2Ghz all core ram: 4x8gb ddr3-1600 kingston fury motherboard: asus z87-k gpu: asus strix 1070 ti psu: corsair cx600 loads of mixed hdds and ssds 2x1080p + 1x1680*1050 monitors htc vive for beat saber there is also a standby build from my bro who is away for a year or so(zen5 3600, b450, 2x8_3200, 1660, 500w_no80+ My question would be: If i install the standby1660 in the second pcie x16(x8 lanes) slot and use that as an output for my monitors can i dedicate the 1070 ti just for the vr? Will the cpu even be able to work with so much stuff at the same time? If not can a ryzen 5 3600 handle it on a b450m pro4-f? The integrated graphics do not work for some reason only when there is no dedicated gpu so i am unable to use that. If i can use the two gpus is there a trick to it or they can function on the same driver version? Thank you very much for the help Dave

Hey so I have the evga 1070ti and it's a blower card I have a pretty budget oriented build. I got a cool case it's the segotep phoenix but my problem is that I have a blower card and my heat tends to be a problem with 3 intake fans and 2 exhaust. What I want to do is get a 2 or 3 fan heatsink and completely replace the on I have but I have no idea if that's possible or if I should do it. I would love some opinions questions or suggestions.

I have a 1070ti gainward phoenix 'golden sample' edition with two bios'es anyone have a oc bios just to squeeze a bit of more performance outta it also is there a good tutorial fo the EXPERtool gainward oc'er as ik i need to use it to change the rgb of the card and maybe to install the new bios, thanks mates, skull

SO i recently upgraded from a 1060 6 gb to a 1070 ti and was trying to get a little extra out of it , But my temps are going too high...Or what i think is too high?! idk... With a +200 Mhz on the core i am getting temps near 86-89 C* with some rare Spikes to 92* C (With aggressive aka Max fan curve) At default without overclock and Base fan curve (i.e. off till needed) my Idle is 56*-58* C I am using Aerocool Bolt Case with 1 Front intake and 1 rear exhaust setup... Cpu : i5-6500 Ram: DDR4 2666Mhz HyperX Fury 8x2 Gpu : 1070 ti MSI GAMING (Obviously) Mbrd: MSI h170 gaming m3 Please help me know if there is an Anomaly here in my Card or it's just Airflow....

So I have a 1070ti in my system right now with 8700k and 32GB RAM I am sticking trying to choose wether I should get another 1070ti which would give me 16GB of VRAM (I’m not sure if they add up) or do I get a 3080, I like playing GTA lspdfr and it can consume a lot of ram any suggestions? thanks

Greetings so I just got a used 1070ti and I’m afraid benchmarks aren't up to par problem is cause nothing to compare to (got a 720p screen since I destroyed my last one) can anyone please do a furmark benchmark at 0x MSAA with 720p res? Thank you very much.

Hey there guys. Recently i bought a 1070Ti Asus Strix and so far it's doing great. Games are running smoothly at 120+ fps no prob. temps are pretty good too. Recently i discovered that when at idle the center fan is spinning at it's lowest speed but it is not registered by HW monitor. There it says 0Rpm. When i run a game they ramp up at around 57 58 degrees and everything is normal ,but i think when at idle they should all stop spinning. What do u think about this?

Hey guys !! Im kind of the new guy here and was wondering some things. I upgraded my mobo (b450-A pro max), cpu (Ryzen 3600x) and GPU (1070ti/had a huge deal on it from a close friend) and was wondering if my GPU will be going to bottleneck my CPU. ( Sorry for the grammar, english isn't my mother tongue )

Yesterday I recieved a used 1070 Ti from Gigabyte that I'm gonna use for my LAN machine. However the fans are quite loud when the card is under load, so I thought to myself: "Wouldn't it be possible to take the cooler shroud off, remove the fans and slap a couple of Noctua NF-A12x25 on?" And after thinking about it and researching a bit I concluded that this would be possible. The only problem is that the card uses non-standart PWM fan headers. I guess i just have to snip the cables off the old fans and solder them to the Noctua ones. Another option would to stil remove the shroud and fans, but plugging the Noctua fans into a normal PWM header on the motherboard and finding some software solution for linking the GPU temp to the fanspeed. Any thoughts and/or ideas are welcome.

I recently purchased a new monitor capable of 1440p/144hz/10-bit/HDR all that fancy stuff, and while my current Gigabyte 1070 ti is doing most games at 60fps or more, I have been thinking of getting a 2080 ti to achieve 144hz at 1440p. My concern is that I don’t really want to buy a 2080 ti now and then later in the year Nvidia release 30 series cards, but then again my 1070 ti is starting to show its age at this point and can’t hold a stable oc. I’m more or less just looking for options from the other users here on what you guys would do in my shoes.

Totally 100% actually SOLVED this time. TL;DR: If your card will not boost, always shows perfcap of power, and MAYBE boosts when slammed with a massive challenge. It's probably a power delivery issue, and if it's not your PSU or cable, odds are it will take some soldering that if you are not VERY comfortable with, I wouldn't recommend. /TL;DR I've seen this same issue across the internet with no solution, now it appears we have one. So, after a lot of head scratching and moving things around, I noticed that there always seemed to be a pwr perfcap reason with this card. For a time I could reliably get it to boost the clock if hit with enough load. I already had a 2070 super on the way and intended to give this card to my wife. When I moved it to her machine, things seemed to go back to the worse state where I could almost never get this thing to operate properly. In a last ditch effort to save the card (and my wallet) I decided to take the whole thing apart again. I replaced all of the thermal pads with Arctic MX-4 compound, cleaned everything AGAIN. And resoldered the power connections and a few of the components that looked a little "less than brand new" all on the power delivery side. Now the card operates properly, the power delivery side of the card must have been somewhat degraded, and is now basically new. OLD POSTS AND UPDATES FOLLOW: Not solved: Appears I jumped the gun a bit. The card functions properly now but it appears only in synthetic benchmarks and some games... As it turns out, if you don't slam the GPU with quite a lot, it won't boost at all, even up to base clock... Older games or lower settings will keep it running at 139MHz and sometimes you'll get abysmal FPS. Other games, or going to absolute maximum settings, everything seems to end up okay. Any insight is appreciated SOLVED: everything I did is listed. last thing MAY be what fixed it, I can't be sure at this point. My ASUS ROG Strix 1070ti started behaving strangely about two weeks ago now, just overnight. I load up a game (Overwatch in that case) and the game runs at about 12FPS I started investigating and noticed that my GPU clocks were not going above 139MHz I decided to try to test this, and noticed that when I launched furmark (I have an old version 1.19.1.0) that just launching the application (not the test) the GPU would start boosting assuming there was a game or another benchmark running in the background. After searching around I found that some people had success "locking" the clock of their cards in this situation using MSI Afterburner (I only had ASUS GPU tweak installed) so I attemped to do that. Locking the clock speed there didn't do anything, until once again, I launched this version of furmark. MSI Kombuster, btw, has the same issues the games do. If I launch furmark, the KOMBUSTER test starts working properly, but it doesn't do the same thing as furmark does and force the GPU to boost. It seems odd that one application will force the GPU to behave properly while others won't and seems to point me to some sort of software system issue rather than an actual defect with the card (although I did do some investigation there) Actions taken thus far: re-flashed the BIOS on the card used DDU to uninstall drivers Rolled back to an october release of Nvidia drivers uninstalled the latest "quality update" from MS Disassembled the card and cleaned the power contacts etc. Placed the card in my wife's computer (does the same thing with the latest nvidia drivers and windows updates) Completely uninstalled the drivers AGAIN, and reflashed AGAIN, currently running on windows provided nvidia drivers as they appear to be an even older version than I can find from Nvidia. it should be noted that once I do force the card to a higher clock successfully everything appears to run fine, the GPU doesn't over heat, everything appears to be fine reported by GPU-z and HWmonitor I'll record a video of what happens to try to avoid any confusion shortly and provide a link. Edit: Video Link as promised. UPDATE: "Reset" windows 10 with the option to keep my files, reinstalled drivers, not much else, got afterburner and kombuster for testing. (MSI's tools are much better than those from ASUS) After I did that there was still no change, except that I noticed it seemed that every so often when I would ALT+Tab while running the stress test, it would just start working. I checked GPU-Z to see if anything there would help and noticed a constant PerfCap for power... so I decided to play with that some more. I did the typical up the power limits to 120% and that didn't seem to help. I'd read somewhere that playing with the voltage dial on 10 series cards didn't do anything really, so I decided not to play with it. UNTIL I DID, I enabled that in MSI Afterburner and set it to +20%.... Not sure what that did, but my card just started clocking normally again. Naturally, because I don't know when enough is enough, I started working through overclocking the thing and crashed everything ? this of course, reset all my overclock settings when I rebooted... HOWEVER EVERYTHING STILL WORKS not sure if somehow the voltage limits got screwy somehow in the firmware and flashing the firmware didn't help, but that seemed to jog it's Memory ? I did see another post about this same issue with this card on this forum, however there were no solutions. Maybe now we have one! testing with MSI Kombuster is fixed, but appears not much else. Games still don't force this GPU to come out of idle speeds.... things that work: MSI Kombustor Unigine Super Position (OpenGL/DirectX game and benchmark modes) The Witcher 2 Metro Last Light Redux Overwatch on ultra at 150% render scale (still get over 100FPS, but this should NOT be needed, lower settings should provide higher framerate, not lower) things that DON'T: Overwatch at sensible settings Dishonored L4D2

Send Help.. Thanks for dropping by. Little back story, I received a bunch of hardware from a buddy who switched to a laptop due to his work. Got some really good stuff, ( i7 8700k, 16gb ddr4, couple ssds ) and of course the EVGA 1070Ti which is a big upgrade from my reference model 480x. He told me about the issue with the card, which is clearly the case. One of the fans doesn't work. So of course I took the card and the other stuff off his hands. Here we are and I'm trying to find some information on what might be the cause. I haven't reached back out to him about if he registered the card, and if I could even RMA it etc. The left fan ( closest to the inputs ) is working, and damn. ITS LOUD! Maybe because its trying to do two jobs. Its the right fan that is having issues. I have installed the lastest drivers from EVGA ( 441.41 ) everything is working. Until I load the game and the fans kick on. I have filmed a world star quality video and uploaded them here.. This one I booted up Destiny 2 and shot it. Then I took it off to show it not getting caught on anything. Set up follows: i5 6600k (skylake) 16gb ddr4 asus hero maixmus viii and a new keyboard that I can't even get into BIOS with ( anne pro 2 ) lolz Any help would be great. Thanks!

I have an i5 9600k on an msi z390 pro-A MB. I have 32gb 2400 ram and a Zotac 1070 ti mini. I have been looking into upgrading the GPU to a 2060 super-2070 but my 1070ti reaches 1980-2010 mhz on its own, no overclocking on my part and my CPU I have set at 4.6 all core with a Cooler master hyper 212 tower cooler from 6 years ago. I can get 4.7 but when i go 4.8 system doesn't boot. My question is what should I upgrade Upgrade the cooling to an AIO on cpu, Upgrade 1070ti to a 2060super or 2070 Upgrade 9600k to a 9700k or 9900k I have 4 drives with 2 1tb ssd, 1 m.2 and 1 2.5in I am not to worried on cost but Its not unlimited. I built an AMD build for wife and she has a 2700x, 5700xt, on a B450. If I can get a CPU and MB for AMD I woulden't mind changing. Thanks for all the help and advise.

Hey I was recently playing an intensive game (Witcher 3) at 1440P on my overclocked 1070ti. And noticed that my monitor completely lost signal after a few seconds of gameplay while audio continued to play. This happened each time I tried to play it. I also tested on Jedi: Fallen Order and the issue repeated. The only way to get signal back was a complete restart. Temperature was around 80C at approximately 90% utilization. I have since downclocked the GPU back to stock and that has seemed to fix the issue, not sure for how long though. But as it has been working fine for almost a year and a half without any issues and then suddenly got the black screen today, should I begin to start looking at a new GPU? Or are there other steps I can take to lengthen the life span of the card.

Hey guys, I'm looking to build a pc with an i7 8700k and 1070ti or 1080ti, which you would be the better option, would the 1080ti be worth it for the money or would the 1070ti be just fine? Thanks, Josh

So a while back ago I got my hands on a 1070 TI at a great deal (around 200$), and I've been happy ever since it easily chews through anything I throw at it. The only reason I'm considering an upgrade is for 1 particular game: Cyberpunk 2077 Most likely I'm overreacting since the game is designed to run on current-gen consoles, but i'd like to hear other people thoughts on the matter. There are currently no official specs for the game right now but a little worried that the 1070TI might have a bit of a hard time handling it. I plan on running it at 1080X2560 at 75 Herz. in case of an upgrade I was thinking of getting a used 1080TI or maybe go for an RTX 2070 (since the super launch of the super their prices have dropped)

Hi guys I just bought a GTX 1070Ti and I'm going to play some games with my friend. He has a 4k TV so we're going to use that. I was just wondering though, how can I run games at 4K on my 1080p screen? I want to do this so I don't have to spend time playing around with the settings over at my friend's house, and I don't have a 4K display. Sorry if this is a dumb question but I was just wondering

I posted once and i found that the reason why im not getting good performance in games is that i have only 1 8gb 3200mhz stick. I use a basic 1080p 60hz 27inch monitor. But some dudes in reddit told me that my gpu is broken. Is only the ram or my gpu is also broken??

My problem is that when i play for example battlefield 1 on ultra 1080p i get only like 70fps while my friend with i5 7gen/ 16ram /1060 6gb gets more than 120fps. What is wrong with my build is it makes me feel so dumb that i wasted so much money. It happens in all games. Like league of legends, state of decay, need for speed payback, total war etc. Is it possible that 8gb ram is not enough becuase everyone in internet says that 8gb for 2019 is just perfect no games need that much. Also in benchmarks i get lower results that avarage 1070ti and r7 users. It really worries me cuz ive always wanted a good pc and i worked alot to get the money.
