Burned 980 ti

[HFKoKoOo]

Hello guys my gpu died before 2/3 weeks and as you can on the photo the RS3 have been burned

I want to ask you because my GPU is out of warranty do you know how i can fix it

I also dont know what is the name of the burned part and if you know it can please tell me

It's a 0.005 Ohms shunt resistor. Same as the ones labelled RS1 and RS2 with "R005" written on them which can be seen near it. Due to its placement on the board my guess is it's for the 8pin PCIe connector, but if you have a digital multimeter you can check by measuring the resistance between the shunt resistor and the PCIe power connector 12V pins (should be 0 resistance on the multimeter if they're connected).
 

Should be fairly easy to find a replacement resistor.

You might even be able to desolder the bad resistor and bridge it with a bit of wire which is a fairly common mod for extreme overclocking to bypass power limits known as a shunt mod. (though I wouldn't recommend this)

 

Keep in mind that even if you fix the resistor there might still be an issue elsewhere which caused the resistor to die in the first place.

Thanks for the great ansnswer my gpu is running at 100% fan speed and no display img also is not detecting from the motherboard.

As i can see you understan very good can you tell me from where i can find and buy 0.005 Ohms shunt resistor

 

You might even be able to desolder the bad resistor and bridge it with a bit of wire - Also do you have any tutorial for this thanks alot

Should be able to get them from most electronic outlets. Digikey should have them.
Should only cost <$0.50 each or less if bought in larger quantities (they might have a minimum order quantity).

Search youtube for "Graphics card shunt mod"

 

I can't seem to find any videos where they bypass the shunt resistor completely but I'm pretty sure Der8auer had a video on it somewhere.

This gamers nexus uses liquid metal instead but it will give you a bit of an idea of the process, but instead of applying liquid metal to the resistor you would need to desolder it and solder a bit of wire in its place, though some graphics cards may trip in to a low power safety mode if the resistance is incorrect:

 

Your best option would be replacing the resistor if possible to avoid the card getting stuck in its safety mode.

In the meantime if your CPU has integrated graphics you should use that until you are able to repair or replace the card.

Best solution indeed would be to replace the part if you have the equipment to desolder/solder another in it's place. I've done such before and the repair to that part itself isn't a difficult job.

 

I cannot suggest a mod to repair it with, as said shunt mods can be used to repair it but do realize many if not most mods you can find around are for getting more performance and some do require better than stock cooling once done too.

 

Whatever you decide to do, make sure the exact mod/method done to the card is only for the purpose of repair, not for actual voltmodding and you'll be OK provided there isn't another problem in the works.
