Hello! My name is Finup, I am a gamer and youtuber. I've had a GTX 970 since the begging of the summer and it RANDOMLY just stopped working yesturday, read more for detail!

 

So... the graphics card is a GTX 970 Strix and 2 days ago I went to play rocket league with my friend, I started up rocket league and then went to change my display setting and once I hit *SAVED* my BOTH of my screens went black and didnt detenct the vga or dvi. Usually I would just restart my PC and it would be fixed (happened 2 times before) but this time it did not get fixed, it just wont display anything on the screen with my graphic card. 

 

Step 2: I tried out my motherboard (cpu intel i7 4700 3.6ghz) and that is displaying shizz on my screen.

 

Step 3: I went back on my Graphic card and then fan is running, the white light is on and it is being powered. I tried moving it to a different slot on my motherboard and it made no difference. 

 

My graphics card is fully updated and has been working for the past months.... any help please!!!! :(

Usually RMA doesn't require retail box. I sent my GTX 770 away to Zotac without the retail box, they didn't care.

 

It's dead bro. It was showing its signs in those 2 prior times but now it's prolly dead.

 

My 8800 GT was doing funny things before I couldn't take it anymore. It was shutting down my system.

Are other games working? My laptop had a similar issue with Rocket league. Certain quality settings just result in blank screen. Can you hear in game audio while the screen is out?

All the games work because they are running off my pc? Its just my graphics card isnt displaying **ANYTHING* to my screen
