Is my card bricked, or is it something else?

BostonBoston

Last night the power went out and my pc lost power obviously, upon boot i had consistent blue screens, decided i would just fresh install windows. After doing so and installing geforce experience (i have 2070 super) i get only one message on the main screen of the app that says "unable to download recommended driver" cant open anything else in the app and installing the driver manually from nvidias site does not work either. ive tried reseating it, turning off my pc and uninstalling geforce exp adn retrying etc, nothing works. DxDiag.txt attached here is my dxdiag file as of posting this. Any help is appreciated thanks.

As the message says, you should use the "Standard" driver, not the "DCH" one. Also, which version of Windows 10 do you have? Recent drivers require a recentish version of Windows 10, so e.g. the RTM version is no longer supported.

Hello,

 

Try to DDU the old driver if it's still installed, manually download the last WHQL from the website and then see if it install it properly.

Like I said, recent versions of the driver require a recent version of WIndows 10. Based on your DXDiag you have Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 15063). As far as I can see, build 15063 is version 1703. I think the recent Nvidia drivers require at least version 1803 or even 1809. So you need to update Windows first.

Not just regular Windows updates, you need to update to a newer Version of Windows 10. The current version is 1909. This link should help: https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows10
