A few days ago, I attempted to play a game on my computer as usual. However, upon opening the game, I noticed that my system couldn't detect my GPU. Strangely, there were no issues with the display, and everything else seemed normal. In my search for a solution, I discovered that disabling and then enabling the display from the Device Manager resolved the problem. I was able to play the game without any issues that night. The next day, when I pressed the power button to start my PC, it failed to boot. Despite multiple attempts, the system wouldn't start. I decided to troubleshoot by removing the GPU, and the system started normally without it. To further investigate, I tested another GPU on my motherboard, and it worked perfectly fine. This confirmed that the issue was specific to my RX 580. I sought assistance from a knowledgeable individual who attempted to repair my GPU. According to him, the GPU's structure was intact, and everything seemed fine. However, he noted an unusual problem – the temperature of the GPU's chipset was consistently too low, which was deemed abnormal. Now, I'm trying to understand the cause of this mysterious issue. It's worth mentioning that my power supply is rated at 450W and complies with OVP, UVP, OPP, SCP, SIP standards. If you have any insights into what might be causing this problem, I would greatly appreciate your assistance. Thank you!

Does seem a bit overkill to check that without trying it out first. Easiest would be to try it out in a different system (with a known good psu) and see how it does. If it has the same problem it's probably time to look for another gpu.

why did this even happen in the first place?

If he's knowledgeable why did he note the chipset temperature being low?

 

My guess is he chucked some electricity into it and didn't see it heat up with a thermal camera which is a terrible way to diagnose a fault but it's likely a short before it reaches the core.

 

Test it in another system , If its a no go then its not worth repairing since its an old card.
