    Question Video TDR Failure when install NVIDIAs GPU drivers?

    my specs: Asus x570-e motherboard EVGA FTW3 Ultra 3080 Ti EVGA 750 G2 Samsung EVO 980 Pro Ryzen 5800x 32GB (4x8) G Skill Trident Z 3200MHz So I just built a new PC, my first time doing a full custom water loop. Everything was working fine up until I went to install the GPU drivers. It’s an EVGA...

    [SOLVED] How do I plug my pump into the PSU to leak test?

    Sorry if I’m just being really dumb right now. I’m trying to leak test my first custom loop but I can’t figure out how to plug the pump into the PSU. I’m using this https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-classic-dp-front-pc-o11d-d-rgb-spc-pwm and the header coming off it is a 4-pin that goes into a fan...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Yeah, I even linked them articles about the exact issue and tried to explain to them it's a very well documented issue with this series of cards in the hopes they' cut me some slack or realise I knew what I was talking about or something, but they completely ignored it, just like every other...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    I don't just play games all day. Don't play that much these days at all really, spend the majority of my time building furniture, working out, doing random DIY stuff. Just don't leave the house much cause there's nothing I care care about outside of it. Guess I'm just a hermit or something...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Thanks. I don't really suffer in that department though, I can talk to people and deal with social interaction just fine. It's not like an anxiety thing. Guess you could just say I'm more of a hermit. I can talk to people, but I prefer not to for certain reasons. Just means cause of how I tend...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    How did you manage to do escalate it? I can't get anyone else to even talk to me about it. Literally every single department throws their hands up an acts like I've called a different company entirely, just saying it's not their department, they can't do anything, referring me to the one email...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Sorry, should have mentioned that I'm in Australia, not the US. The contact the CEO thing is only available to US customers. Same with all the phone numbers and stuff that put you in contact with someone useful. Guess their Australia customer support arm is super barebones and disjointed by...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Oh yeah, no they have tons of photos and videos at this point. Given them plenty of evidence, they just don't seem to care.

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Put one up here: View: https://youtu.be/l_YF0XPRVow At first, that happened when I launched a game and within thirty seconds, both monitors looked like that and after maybe 2-3 seconds of that the PC would BSoD about half the time, the other half of the time, it would either stay like that...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Unfortunately, I don't have access to another PC to test it in. I did get a read on the temps though, 65 degrees under load on average. Also got it to make it through Heaven Benchmark eventually and the numbers were about half what I'd expect to see with an RTX 2080, only about 72 FPS average...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Well I don't currently have the card, it's still with Asus. They tried to send it back to the retailer to ship back to me, but both me and the retailer are arguing with them to issue a credit notice so the retailer can send me out a replacement. Takes about a month just for the care to make it...

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    Yeah, I highly suspect that nothing was done to the GPU during the first "repair".

    Question How can I prove to ASUS that my GPU needs replacing?

    I didn't test it on another motherboard, don't have access to any other systems to try that. Allegedly that's what Asus is doing and they're saying there's no issues but I'm also pretty sure they said they did recreate the issue during the first repair. Not 100% sure if that's what the guy was...

    Question Stuck in an infinite RMA loop, what do I do?

    Yeah, seems that way. After getting the card back still broken the first time I went full tin foil hat mode and came up with a bunch of conspiracy theories about how they probably wanna try to get away with stuff like this as much as possible now that those things are worth their weight in gold...
