Dead GTX 1080

[CRhodey]

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.

Oooh, thats rough. I do not have any suggestion to fix it but if you not able to fix it I would suggest watching this stream so you can see when things are in stock. When things are in stock the links are posted in the chat but I would suggust you join his discord server (in the description of the stream) to sign up for alerts for the cards you want. Just make sure you have desktop notifications on for discord.

 

As soon as something comes in stock you will be notified then you can click on the link that is provided. You have a way better chance do this instead of just refreshing any page. Grab any card you can and make sure you are logged in and have all your shipping and creit/debit information filled so you can just hit add to card go to your cart and buy it.

 

I promise this works. I have clicked on the links before just to see if the things are actually in stock and they have been. I have not bought any of them though because I do not have the money. But sometimes you will go to page and it will be sold out. Best of luck.
