My friend just told me that he actually Rehetead his gpu falsely since he thought that there was something wrong with his gpu but instead it was actually his PSU which it could not handle the watts needed. So there was actually no problem with his GPU. So is this still safe or how long do you guys think this would last or is there any effect? He told me he used an "industrial tool" to reheat it and the gpu is actually doing fine with any loads

As long he didnt do any damage to the gpu chip then it will be fine.

Run some benchmarking software or even furmark for 1 hour to test the stability

Never advise any one to run FurMark, it is completely unrealistic workload that punishes graphics card far more than any gaming or CUDA Acceleration mainstream users will ever do that can be potentially harmful to the GPU and does not serve as a good stability testing at all.

 

Heaven Benchmark or Superposition are the ones you should advise people of.

yep, i just run furmark because full cover waterblock :P 

 

really the GPU is likely perfectly fine, but run Heaven or 3DMark Firestrike or something like that and look for artifacts. this has probably taken a bit of the life of the GPU because of heating caps and stuff but should still be perfectly fine for now

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Furmark looks like a baby now after the guy reheated the graphics card in an "industrial tool" and still working :))))))))))))) Fiurmark cannot heat that graphics card in such a way :)))))

Your line of thought is wrong on the matter that on thing is heat it up completely turn off, another is fully turn on sucking as much energy as it possible can over heating the transistors from inside.

Really? i thought furmark is a good software to test stability because it simply putting the GPU under really heavy load like real heavy, even heavier than unigine.

 

I ran furmark on my referrence 970 and it does run really hot but its fine it can handle it.

Not sure if furmark really that threatening to the video card itself.
