He's dead jim

Sorry m8, those are the tell-tale signs of a dying/dead GPU. You could trying 'baking' it, but that's a very hit-or-miss method of recovery.
>>
>>55202937
makes me feel sad, i loved this GPU
anyway, if ill decide to bake it ill put the results here
so no really other ways?
this shit is so random i just can't handle it anymore
>>
>>55202931
What does it have to do with trusting jews? I'm talking about putting it in the oven. Do you even humor?

sry, i'm so mad i did not read it properly

There's not much else you can do. A thorough dusting and maybe even reapplying the thermal compound might help.

IMO, AMD's RX 400 series are just around the corner, or looking for a used GTX 700 series might be worth your while.
>>
>>55202997
or 900 series.
>>
>>55202997
about the thermal compound
so this GPU has some kind of metal around the crystal, and you can't really open it without heating it to about 200 C

im so dumb i invested so much into motherboard and CPU now i have no money left for decent GPU :(

I had the same thing happened to my 480GTX only with red dots/lines and two DVI port failing like dead birds in flight.
Evga forums told me to bake it but i have a feeling that something else is causing the card to fail.
I flashed new bios but didnt helped.So I flashed it two more times with FTW bios(higher voltage)and also didn't do a thing.
Baking the card wont do a thing since the problem is not in the solder despite what everyone is saying.
It will work for a month than you will trash it.
For me faulty RAM is a possibility for the mayhem since Memetest said it was fucked to shit so im waiting on new sticks and test things out.

I have never had a problem on my xbox 360. Still works after years and years of abuse.

Im sorry you all spent your money the wrong way
>>
>>55202893
This brought me back, same shit happened to my radeon 9600 back then.

Like you I insisted on using it because it only happened at times and was less severe. One fine day on turning on the pc there was the motherboard beeping and no image on display.

You better cough up for a new gpu asap.

What this kind anon means is that you should look up ``how to fix a GPU using the oven''.

>>55202893
Looks like your Vram went faulty, had this happen on my 290x not too long ago.

Nothing you can really do if your warranty is over, OP.

It's this.

Most artifacting, when not caused by a driver problem or a voltage stability problem, is VRAM failure.


The shit about oven reflow is a myth that circulates back to the Xbox 360 where moving from leaded solder to RoHS certified solder. Except that the issue was actually on-die, and ovening it only fixes it temporarily. Ever since idiots think solder reflows work just fine, which it doesn't.

If you oven this card you WILL break it. There's no point in trying really.

Best thing to do is to go shooting and fire off some shots at it, while muttering a few words about the service it gave you.

hey thanks everyone for reply
going to buy new one i guess...

Yeah, that's VRAM.

I've had multiple cards fail in exactly that fashion and it was always VRAM.

You can try lowering your memory speeds manually
