I measured the voltage on the PCI e power cables. I get 11.56v on the supply pins. Does it mean the PSU is fine? Will change it anyway but wondering if PSU caused this problem in first place..

Hi I have ordered a new PSU and it's getting delivered in a couple of days. Do you think I can safely test the new PSU with the GPU assuming the later has failed. Just want to be sure the failed GPU wouldn't damage the new PSU!

I agree RMA is a long and possibly a painful process. Will try to test the GPU on a different rig at a repair shop or at a friend's place. Thanks. Meanwhile if someone else solved a similar issue pls do pitch in.

Thanks for the tip, will surely try it out. For me Fastest is important for a couple of competitive games that I play. To compensate for brightness loss, I adjust the black levels tuner.

Same issue here. Worried about wearing out the joystick button. Has anyone found any fix?
