Im building my wife a PC and now that my SLI is useless (for a few years now), I figured I’d give her my extra GPU.
I disabled the SLI in the control panel, powered down, popped the SLI and 2nd GPU out and gave my wifes pc the extra 1080. My PC started up fine, I booted up a game, and about 10 min in, the screen froze for about 10 seconds and then appeared to restart and now I have no video output. Did I brick my gpu? Any ideas on how to proceed?
I’m only panicking a lot.
I know it sounds stupid…
But when you cut your GPU power almost in half… You turned settings down a lot right?
That would cause the crash, and sometimes a crash just kinda sticks, no fans, no lights, no output.
You have to flip the switch on the supply and do the hardest of reboots.
Like I said, you probably already did that stuff. But I’ve seen it happen.
The first thing you should always do is try turning it off and on again
So I’ve had my SLI disabled for a few years now because no games still support it, so I know I can run these games on a single card.
I’ve already done the hard PS switch reset.
Everything lights up in the case itself but no video output comes out.
