Posted January 22, 2021 I have a gigabyte windforce 980 ti g1 or gv-n98tg1 gaming-6gd that ive had since new and just recently more and more it has been happening from just being on desktop to being in games. I have reset os entirely, reset drivers, reset graphics card in pci slots, different ones. pc runs fine on integrated mb gpu chipset, but whenever on dedicated gpu(980ti) crashes frequently and is big rip. any help?

Posted January 22, 2021 is there any programs specifically that cause the card to crash? Also what is your PSU, as if you have a unit that is borderline on the requirements, it may have been worn down. However, with this info specifically, it is sounding like your GPU is dying. If you have another PC or a friend who can try it in his computer, do that to see if he has the same issues, but it does sound like the card is on its way out.

I have an 750w psu thats 2 years old and literally startup lock screen will crash it, or sometimes i can play games for 30 min and it crashes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 22, 2021 Sadly it sounds like a dying gpu, my 780ti had a very similar problem where the screen would go solid green and fan to 100%, I couldnt shut down through Windows and had to hard shutdown. for me it happened after about 2 mins of a game Laptops for sale: [FS] [US] Vintage laptop collection + parts - Classifieds - Linus Tech Tips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
