AMD HD7850 "Grey screen of death"?

[Pleo]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm having some trouble atm.

 

I was playing a game and suddenly my screen went grey, at first I thought this was related to my game but task manager etc wouldn't show up, so I rebooted.

 

After that, no signal at all, even my razer equipment (keyboard and mouse) wouldn't light up. I took my PC and cleaned out some dust, still no success.

 

Now i'm on my intel HD, so I'm certain that its related to my GPU and nothing else, maybe my PSU?

 

Do you guys have any ideas? I really can't afford losing my good old HD7850.

 

Thanks.

What 7850 do you own? I have a Sapphire Dual-X HD 7850 and that's been having issues recently.

Asus HD7850gb 2gb strix OC, I literally tried everything but it still says no signal, when i have the card installed my pc won't even boot up properly. Like its not getting enough power even though i have had the same psu for 4 years. (550w)

No way. Now I have more proof that Sapphire made those 7000 series Dual-X cards have a death date recently.

 

 

i still miss my 7950 rip

my card was sold in 2013 tbf and has had a less than satisfactory life so the fact that it's been here for 4 years is pretty surprising

TBH I think it was either my overclock that killed it or HORRIBLY bad timing.

It might have kicked the bucket. Best thing to do is take card apart, clean it and repaste and try again.
