Is the used GPU I bought dying?

yes

Hi everyone!

 

I recently bought a used GTX 1080 ti that will be put in my new build. Since it will take a while to save up for an i7 8700k, an sdd, and ram, I can’t quite test it on anything else but my old rig that has an AMD FX-6350. Due to the CPU bottlenecking, I can’t tell if the decrease in its performance is due to a worn out GPU or the bottlenecking of the system. I ran games such as Fortnite and Pubg. I got around 40fps with random stuttering with all setting turned to epic in Fortnite, and I got around 60fps with frequent little stutters in Pubg will all settings ultra and vsync, motion blur, and sharpen on. I got a 3dMark score of 6562 with stuff like discord running in the background, but nothing too intense. If anyone has any information on telling if I got a pooped out GPU, that would be much appreciated. I also uploaded an image of one of the tests I did as well.

 

Cheers!

Check 3dmark graphics score. Overall score takes physics (CPU based) score into account and the FX will definitely drag it behind

Not really a thing. If your GPU is dying, you'd get video artifacts, GFX corruption, BSoD, that sort of thing.

So rise up, all ye lost ones, as one, we'll claw the clouds

I got a BSoD when I first put in the card, but I updated the drivers and it never happened again. I got a little bit of a weird stripping pattern where one horizontal strip would lag a couple pixels behind the one under/above it(only when I ran games), but when I turned vSync it fixed it. I haven’t really noticed it outside of playing games. Would that be a problem with the card anyways, or another result of bottlenecking?

I’ll do another benchmark today and I’ll get back to you on the GPU score.

I think your old FX card is probably to blame on those, don't write it off just yet, wait until you can get a CPU that is more evenly matched with the GFX card

Old FX Card?

Oh ok, sorry I just wanted to make sure that you weren’t talking about another part, thank you.

I did another 3dMark test, this time with minimal programs running in the background, this is what I got (snip was taken after the test, no recording/screenshot software was on during the test):

Is this expected for this kind of setup? Also tell me if you need any other specs on my system, I’m new to 3DMark so I don’t know what is and isn’t a determining factor. Thank you.
