Halo

 

Recently my MSi GTX 980 4G Gaming PCB Burn (AGAIN). 

I Overclock my MSi GTX 980 with MSi After Burner latest software

 

I Use this settings :

Temp                 : Max

Core Clock        : +200

Memory CLock  : +225

Fan 100% if it reach 70 degree C

 

i Run BenchMark : 3x Unigin Heaven, 1x 3DMark Firestrike, 2x Unigin Vally

it run well and stable, the Core Temp 65 - 71 Degree C

 

when my computer is in IDLE, suddnely the PC Dead Instanly, with burn smell in GTX 980

i return to MSi ,they said the PCB Burn....

 

Why it burns while my PC is on IDLE ? 

 

I try to plug my old GTX 560 Zotac AMP, my PC run well again ,no problem

Something is not right, do you actually smell a burning odor?

reading trough jonnyguru on that power supply.. 

 

i suggest maybe considering something new on that end, i'm not saying your PSU is the issue, but some of jonny's tests arent quite inspiring so to say.

Oh, i had the same thing happen to my pcs+ r9 390x. 

 

But the only difference is that powercolor told me to fuck off

Can you give me a screenshot of the fanprofile you use. You might be setting it poorly, causing the VRM's to burn.

wtf why is the lower threshold at 40%? I think you may need to run a driver sweeper and delete all fanrelated programms including their profiles and reinstall them.

I have the exact same card...

 

 

Something is messing with your graphics card.
