My display looks like this when I power on the new system. I used my old GPU from a previous setup on my new build but it had to sit in my locker for about 2 months. It was wrapped up in an anti static bag and wasn't moved around much. Card: Gigabyte GTX 960 G1 4G Is it possible to fix this? Update: after letting it run like that for about 5 minutes, it seems to be working alright.

So I had problems for a while now, where my pc randomly shuts off while loading into a game. Now i finally think im closer then ever to finding the error. In short, ive installed msi afterburner and tracked the temperatures of my Gpu while doing benchmarks, or playing games. It shut off exactly at 79 or 80 C. So i looked into msi ab and the max temp of my gpu was set as 79 C, with a power limit of 100%. So naturally i upped both to the max to see if it was the issue, ran the test again and it shut off again at around 82/83 C. That lead me to believe its an issue with my Psu. Ive tried a different test, where i upped my Gpu fan speed curve. It kept the temp low. It stopped at around 72 C. Then it died again. Which again led me to believe its an issue with my power supply and that it couldnt supply my gpu with enough power. Also if i hooked up another monitor directly into my motherboard. It still worked, even after my gpu crashed. Also when my pc crashes only the video signal is missing, the games in the back, or teamspeak are still running while im sitting infront of a black screen. So wheres the problem than? Ive tested my components in a psu calculator and it said i could even use a 400 W psu, while mine is 550 W and cant support my pc with enough power? My Pc is 6 years old and some components might got a bit dusty, but i tried my best to dust it all of, even ti internals of my gpu. Idk if that could be the power eater. Could this be a different issue, or do i need to change the Psu?

I have had a Palit Gtx 1080 Gamerock (not premium) for about 4 years, it was unlikely to have reached a temp above 70degC. Went to start my pc today and none of my monitors came on. Graphics card didn't light up or spin. I've ruled out my power supply and have tried the card in another pci slot and still nothing. The slots are also confirmed good as I tried an old card in both. Given the current buyers market for graphics cards I'd be grateful of any suggestions to try and get this thing back online.

I have made this topic for people to post download sites for linux iso files

I recently bought a laptop that has 7700hq and GTX 1050 4gb and 8 GB RAM. Please recommend some games (racing, shooting, open world, simulation) that would run on it. The laptop : https://www.amazon.in/dp/B0786TZKR9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glc_fabc_31Q724SQCA7HAHY8YDDX?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1 Thanks!

My GTX 1070 pins are worn, to even get the card to read and start I had to place the card at an angle, I noticed the card wasn't dead because it still worked at an angle, it did wonderfully but when it moved an inch it would crash, and because of sometimes it wouldn't load, I spent a lot of time trying to find the right spot for it to work where it would read but, it was just too much for me to handle so i went back to my 1050ti, please! is there a way to could fix the pins or like renew them, I really need the card and buying a new one for the price of a brand new pc would be a nightmare, any way to allow them to better connect to the mother board. any info helps, I am begging at this point.

Hello everybody i want to overclock my gtx 970. i have msi afterburner where do i have to set the mhz thx darlings

GTX cards are enough to run games for a average player. We don't need RT cores for video editing and normal gaming other than playing Minecraft and rendering 3d models with perfect lighting. It will be good If Nvidia bring back the lineup because RTX cards need extra silicon and in the middle of a silicon shortage that's a good thing. It will be a good thing for gamers. It still has acceptable gaming performance.

I am noticing something. No one buys the GTX 1650 G5/G6. It’s only like $100-200 above MSRP. The 1650 Super is like $200-300 above MSRP. Sometimes, an MSI one is sometimes $325. Even before the GPU blow-up, everyone chooses the 1650 Super. Is the regular 1650 not good enough? Is it a bad value card? I am very confused why no one buys it.

Hello. I have the exact same problem as this guy I know it is an old topic, but this exact problem has been giving me a hard time for the past 4 days. I tried everything that I know, but nothing seems to be working. Or is my GPU dead?

Hey! I built my PC a couple of months ago. Specs are: MB: ASUS B550M-PLUS (WI-FI) CPU:AMD RYZEN 5600G WITH RADEON GRAPHICS RAM: 16GB DDR4-3600 SSD: CRUCIAL FORCE MP510 256GB I had always intended to fit a discrete GPU at some point, and I purchased a used 980Ti which didn't work. I want to buy a brand new GPU. I don't mind the OEM, as long as it: a) Runs MSFS2020 @ 1080p Ultra 30+fps, Autodesk Inventor, and Davinci Resolve pretty good, b) looks sleek, not flashy and 'gamer-y', and c) doesn't cost more than £450 GBP Also, if ASUS was the OEM, it would be preferred, but as I say, not mandatory. I understand that these are tough times, but please give me some suggestions. I've spent hours on this, and all I want is a good PC. Many, many thanks, Cessna.

Recently my graphics card suffered a short circuit and I sent it to repair, so far it has worked perfectly but I was monitoring with HWinfo64 and I noticed that in the data of "GPU Rails Power" marks as 132.235w and "GPU Power" marks as 118.942w the maximum value is this normal? I leave the screenshot of HWinfo (the screenshot I made after playing) and I need to know if all the values are correct or there may be a problem?

Found a Gainward GTX 970 4gb on Facebook Marketplace listed at ≈150USD, is this worth it? If no, what'd be a reasonable price?

I have a GTX 980 ti right now it works great but I've seen a GTX 1660 ti on my area for around the price I could sell my 980 ti. Given the situation I think the 1660 ti will hold it's value better in the future the 980 ti is starting to age, it still is a good performing card it's a dinosaur by now. Also the 1660 ti can mine and be profitable my 980 ti hardly covers the cost off electricity ( I'm thinking off doing a bit off mining during the time I'm not at home ) What do you guys think is it worth the swap ?

Is 370$US a good price for a used Asus GTX 1070 Turbo? I am currently upgrading my prebuilt pc's GPU. It has a 750Ti. Online I saw an auction for a used Asus 1070 Turbo for 340CHF (370$US) and it seemed like a good price, so I bought it. But is it actually a good price? Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

I updated to the latest version of Windows 10 recently and all is well until not long after the system started becoming slow. The previous thread I started seemed to have solved, however games still perform like trash despite the system itself not being slow. I tried installing newer drivers, then rolling back, then uninstalling it using DDU and then installing the driver again, then uninstalling it once more and opting to get a driver from Windows Update. All of which proved futile. No matter which drivers I use, no matter if I install them clean or not, it still runs like crap. Please help me.

I have been looking at 980 Ti GPU's on eBay, and found that their prices are surprisingly cheap, considering that they aren't too far off the performance of an RTX 2060. I was wondering if this is a good alternative to spending lots of money and maybe just a card to keep me playing newer games until prices go down? I have a GTX 660 Ti right now and my dad has a GTX 1060 3GB. We have overkill PC's for what our Graphics cards are capable of, he has a Core i5 10400F, 32 GB of 3600 MHz DDR4 RAM, Geforce GTX 1060 3GB, and a 500 GB NVMe SSD + 2 TB Hard Drive. I have a Ryzen 5 2600x,16 GB of 3600 MHz DDR4 RAM, EVGA GTX 660 Ti, and a 500 GB NVMe SSD + 3 TB (very old) Hard Drive. The only games my dad plays are MSFS 2020 and the Sims 4, while I play mostly racing games, such as Assetto Corsa, ACC, FH5, F1 2021 and others. We are both looking to getting an RTX 2080 Ti once the prices drop, but until then, is a GTX 980 Ti worth it, or are there any other alternatives? Personally my budget is about $600 AUD ($450) and I am not sure about my dads, but I think it is similar. We both also use 1440p monitors, so 4k performance isn't a necessity. I have an Xbox Series X as well, but I love the mods in Assetto Corsa and some games that aren't on console, such as Euro Truck Simulator and BeamNG, and my dad prefers to have a PC so he can have mods in Flight Simulator as well. Update: My dad isn't looking to upgrade at all so and the only games I will be playing is Assetto Corsa, F1 2020, BeamNG, Euro Truck Simulator and all of those games (except for F1 2020) are 8+ years old and don't need a newer card to run them at 1440p. So for me this would be a worthwhile upgrade. Update (1st of March) I now have a GTX 1070Ti, and I am very happy with it. All my games get 100 fps+ so it was a worthwhile upgrade. It cost me $525 AUD so about the same price as the 980 Ti was 2 months ago. I have it overclocked to 1080 levels of performance, so until GPU prices decrease dramatically, I am not going to upgrade. Update (18th of July) I have since upgraded my whole pc, I now have a Ryzen 5600x and a 3060 Ti, and the 1070 Ti has gone to my dad.

I own a Zephyrus G14 (ryzen7 4800hs and 1650ti). When I open armoury crate my gpu frequency is 300 Hz constant but has 0% utilization. No program shown in nvidia gpu activity tool on taskbar. I would have just ignored it but this has affected my temps. (around 50 degrees all the time compared to 35-40 degrees previously). Things I have already tried to fix it (but didn't fix it) -scanned my system for virus nd malware through various platforms. -deleted unwanted apps -cleared my browser data and cookies. I really have no Idea why this is happening please HELP MEEEE.!!!

I need a shroud from the original Titan Black. Heatsink not necessary. I've scoured Ebay for hours!

I just bought a new gtx 1660 super zotac amp a month ago and when i turn on or off my pc the gpu sounds like it squeezes or pulls on something..my gpu fans run on 32 speed on idle permanently and slowly increase while playing games. Sometimes i hear rattles (high pitched) and sometimes i dont..so i tried to put my gpu fan speed on 78 from 32 to give it a headstart to see if it rattles and it doesn't. I tried increasingly it by 5 digits every time as well and nope...doesnt rattle.. Can coil whine sound like rattling or squeezing or pulling on a string? I don't know what to do and the whole thing makes me extremely frustrated. (Havent enjoyed my pc since 6 months ago due to old gpu issues and psu issues..)

Hi guys.... I used to get 130-150 fps on csgo on my gtx 1050 ti but now i get 115 fps and it will often drop to 24 fps our of sudden. Is there something i mising or is my gpu slowly dying... Degrading its performance or is there like a software that is causing such behaviour ,below are a benchmark from unigine heaven benchmark 4.0 Current set up is Mobo:intel dp67bg Cpu: i7 2600 Ram:8gb 1888mhz 2x4gb Gpu: zotac gtx 1050 ti Cooler:aio 240mm id cooler Psu:andyson 650watss semi modular Ssd:240gb sandisk Hdd:1tb wd blue and 1 tb barracudas Case:TECWARE EDGE Monitor:Anmite 32 inch 1080p,aoc 22 inch 1080p and dell 22 inch 1080p All connected to gpu

What is the difference between GTX 1660 and GTX 1660 Ti and GTX 1660 super? Why there is huge price difference even they look similar? Am I missing something?

THE VIDEO I HAVE ATTATCHED HAS FLICKERING. EPILEPSY WARNING! Hi, I have been having very strange issues with my gpu. It is used and my setup is not the most common. It is running in a virtual machine with the host being proxmox and the virtual machine being arch linux I have 8 core deticated to it with 16gb of ram as well. My setup is a remote gaming setup where i use moonlight game stream with sunshine to allow me to play games anywhere. Now the screen is a virtual screen using Xorg tricks to make the driver think it is connected to a screen but I do not think this could be the issue The gpu utilisation in unigine superposition jumps from 70 to 100% constantly and causes the fps to jump from 20 to 40 in the extreme 1080p test. The final score is around ~ 3850 which is much lower then the usual a gtx 1080ti can get. Playing minecraft with shaders also feel choppy but without the insane flickering i get with the unigine benchmarks. I have attatched my dmesg which seems to have some errors but I cannot tell what they are about. Posiibly the gpu but I do not know. I have attatched my xorg.conf and the edid i am using for my virtual display The gpu itself never gets above 68C when gaming for long periods so it cannot be throttling. The gpu is at 1936mhz and it stays there but the gpu utilisation is a bit haywire My nvidia drivers are the latest 470.74 I am running linux kernel 5.14.7 I am using Arch linux Any help would be appreciated gpu1.mp4

Does the fan keep rattling? Or does it stop after like 2 seconds? I was on my pc earlier and i bought a rand new psu. And i heard noise while loading into a fortnite game. Headphones were right beside the case so i thought it was rattling. So i searched FN bus noises and THE BUS ITS SELF is rattling. And was very similar to what i heard. Main question is , if a fan rattles does it continue to do so? Or can it happen , stop after 2 seconds and never happen again? Or was it even propably the game not my psu?

Hello friends I’m new here and I have a REALLY confusing hardware problem, so this is a gonna a bit long. tl;dr, I think my RX 470 is locked to Ryzen systems and will not work with Intel systems. Context: From the Philippines. I bought my girlfriend an RX 470 that she could use in her new build until GPU prices calm down. I found the card secondhand from a seller with many positive reviews, and he proved to me (with timestamps even) that the card was in good working order and could play games, could do anything really. All this to say that the seller seemed solid. My old setup: I received the card, it was old, had faded gold pins, but otherwise looked normal. I plugged it into my OLD system with an i5-4460, Asus B-85 Pro Gamer, 8 gb RAM, Windows 10, to test the card. The system would turn on, GPU lights on, fans spinning, but no display. Reseated the RAM and the card, still no display. It would show up as no signal on my monitor. I plugged the HDMI cable into my motherboard with the 470 still attached, and found that the GPU was not detected at all even when running off of my integrated graphics. AMD’s driver software that detects your GPU for driver updates wasn’t even finding it. My current setup: My current personal system has a Ryzen 7 5800X, Asus X570-F, 32 gb RAM, Windows 10, and a GTX 1080 FE. I swapped out the 1080 for the 470 to see if it would work, and it did! The card worked perfectly fine in my current system. I could play games and do anything. I thought it wasn’t working on my old setup because maybe the mobo was dying, so I decided to let it go and hope for the best until my girlfriend’s setup arrived. GF’s setup: A couple weeks later, my gf’s parts finally came together and we set up an i5-10400F, MSI B560M Pro-VDH Wifi, 16 gb RAM, Windows 10. Plugged the 470 into her setup and boom, no display, exact same problem as with my old setup. It would light up, fans would spin, but no display. I tried placing my GTX 1080 into her system and THAT worked. I went to Reddit to ask around and somebody suggested the possibility that the card may somehow be locked to Ryzen systems being that it failed to work in two Intel systems. I asked the seller what his system was, the one he had the 470 running in, and sure enough, he had a Ryzen 5 1600, B350M. This just furthered one Redditor’s theory that somehow it isn’t compatible with Intel systems. My original theory was that my X570-F could detect the card because being that it’s a higher-end mobo, it was more sensitive to even faded contacts? Although that makes no sense with the original seller’s mobo being an older, cheaper B350M. Currently: As of now, I have given my girlfriend my GTX 1080 to use for now until I can figure out what to do with her RX 470. The 470 works in my system so it’s currently plugged into my R7 5800X, X570 system. The temps are fine, even better than my 1080 FE’s temps. What I have tried: I’ve tried a lot of things to try and solve this so I can’t remember all, but here’s what I can recall right now: - Reseating RAM - Reseating GPU - Using HDMI, Display port, VGA, none worked - Updating drivers (could not because AMD software could not detect the RX 470) - DDU-ing NVIDIA drivers - Updating BIOS - Resetting BIOS to default - Removing CMOS battery and replacing it after 2-3 minutes, did it again for 5 minutes. - Cleaning the contacts with an eraser twice, with and without alcohol - Checking if integrated graphics were enabled (it wasn’t) - Checking if Resizable Bar Support was enabled (it wasn’t) - Enabling “Normal Setup” on msconfig instead of Selective Startup - Booting from Integrated Graphics on my old Intel system, entered device manager to check if the RX 470 was detected, but it wasn't I have considered having someone re-apply the gold pins, but I did my best to budget for this and I would rather find another way that doesn’t involve paying hahaha Thank you so much for any help you can provide! I will reply to you as soon as possible, I'm studying for an ophthalmology exam at the same time hahaha Edit: Pix of the RX 470 contacts: https://imgur.com/a/FNYZvq3
