1080ti and 2080ti died after one year.

[HiiDontCareThanks]

Hey guy i had a bad experience with my last two GPU's.

As title says my first GPU (1080) bought in December 2017 died after one year of using, it was an asus rog strix 1080 ti , non over clocked  i use it as i buyed from store.

My second GPU bought in 2019 January or in February died this year around March. It was gigabyte - geforce rtx 2080 ti 11gb gaming oc. Same thing, i use this GPU as i bought it from store, no OC.
So, my questions are:

I am that "lucky" to get two broken GPU's or it was something else like marketing and they broke my GPU's with driver (if possible) or something like that, i am not an expert, or it was just bad luck.

Also, i have my old PC, with an 1060 GPU and every thing work just fine in the last few years.

Anyone else had this problem?

That was just bad luck, GPUs should hold up a long time.

 

Until i sold them recently i had a GTX 660Ti and a 970. I bought both when they were released and they never had any problems. They were both several years old.

 

Maybe you have a very low-quality PSU? Rest of your specs?

I've handled a couple 1080 TIs and 2080 TIs, a strix, an MSI Duke, and a founder's edition to name a few. They're all in perfect condition to this day so it's really a matter of bad luck unfortunately.

Hello,

 

What PSU do you have ?

[Haro]

Could be bad luck as stated above or could be something else, just to be safe, what psu are you using?

exact model if possible? also try the cards in a different system and check.

Oh, already sent them to RMA, and got my money back, now i am using my old PC. At that time, before send them back, tested on both PC's  and had same problem. 

BUT, the  weird part is  how both video cards died before the launch of the new generation, in both cases.

in both cases. 

yea could be bad luck but again, could be something else, we can't know for sure sadly.

[HiiDontCareThanks]

Oh, i still use both PSU's  and i dont have any problem.
