My GPU just died after 1 year of service.
Serves me right for buying stuff during Black Friday.
What's a good gpu to use for the next year or so? Something I can later do a crossfire or SLI later.
>>333122156
GTX 970 will do you good
$350 for a 3.5gb card?
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
>crossfire or SLI later
Wont matter once explicit multiadapter becomes a thing
>>333122562
The problem is that I bought my GTX during a sale. Even a year later I can't find anything to match it's price.
>>333122156
Polaris or Pascal?
I mean, I'm totally selling 2 GTX 660 Twin Frozr's, bro.
GPUs have 3 year warranties iirc ,atleast my MSI 750ti OC does.
>>333124454
I don't even know where I'd go to claim that.
>>333122156
just get a GTX980Ti and literally never need for another gpu
>>333124860
except for the fact those chips dont natively support DX12.

lookup gigabyte's website for your country or whatever OEM you bought the card from, look for a customer support number there should be under a "Contact us" tab or hyperlink at the top or bottom of the page just do a ctl+f.
ask them if your card's under warranty and they'd tell you if there's a service center close to you or if you have to ship the card to them otherwise.
it's worth a shot, what do you have to lose anyway.

>3.5BG is all that matters
I'm still butthurt about Nvidia pulling that shit, but don't act like it makes the 970 a bad card. It still easily runs most games on High/Ultra settings with a decent CPU.

>Died after 1 year
Did you overclocked it to hell? If you did, then you probably fucked up.
>>333122156
Just buy a 750 ti for now and wait for pascal to come out. I wouldn't bother buying a 970 at this point.
>>333125214
Nah, I never did anything with it.
My PC just turned off and it wouldn't turn on as long as the GPU was connected in the PSU.
>>333125267
I think I might just do that.
RMA it you retard.
>>333125991
Already past the 12 month mark.
Get a Titan black. You won't need a new card for 10 years
Is 390 worth it? Do you really need 8GB memory for a card with that power?
>>333126350
Three year warranty
stop being a dumbfuck and get it replaced
>>333122156
Like what this anon>>333125267 said, or wait & see what PS4.5's like before spending ridiculous amounts on a gpu.
Sold my 980ti, no regrets desu.
>>333128114
Gigabyte only gives 3 year warranty to Mother boards.
>>333128717
I have a gigabyte 390 with a 3 year warranty
>>333124916
Actually they support the highest feature level of DX12, but are inferior in terms of async compute when compared to AMD.
But that's just a single aspect of the API
>>333128717
Dumbass

No, serves you right for buying nshittia.

Foreigner bro
>>333130496
So why didn't you say you weren't in the US and therefor don't matter?
>>333129741
It was a gross over simplification and likely some ignorance on my part.
>>333130657
Go suck a dick, fucking americuck
>>333129741
Actually, Nvidia cards doesn't support Async in any way and Async is the main aspect of DX12.
Have you tried putting your GPU in the oven? Baking it could fix it.
what the fuck op?
my gtx 670 from the 2012 blackfriday still going strong
>>333130874
There's lots of "main aspects" to DX12
>>333130961
Get out linus
>>333125078
Is a 4690k a decent cpu?
