Yes. I kind of does, but if they can't fix it, I will get myself R9 290. The price is still reasonable at around 100 Euro ($120-130) and performs almost the same as 1060 which costs twice or sometimes 3 times as much as 290.

Yes, I dismantled the card like 3-4 times after those artifacts appeared. So it is not overtightend problem. The card is given for repair but they are unsure if they can repair it. I will have info tomorrow. (Hopefully)

It does have the spring screws. I think that every GPU has them? I'm unsure if I overtightened it because I have done it before without any issue whatsoever. Also let us say that I have done this and you said you've seen it. Is there any possible fix to it?

No, it did not. It turns out that it might be the thermal paste I was using. Since I ran out of MX-4 I had some MasterGel Pro laying around by Cooler Master. I checked the package to see if there was anything about conductivity, there was nothing. So I decided to put it and call it a day, but it...

Update: I might've found the problem. It seems that the thermal paste is conductive. If I clean it up good and place it only on the chip would it be fixed?

Alright I will give it a go. I trimmed the pads. If this time doesn't work I have to see someone to repair it. I hope its just some VRAM chip that can be easily repaired.

Hello! Today I decided to change the thermal paste and thermal pads of my GPU. I've opened it before and have changed the paste through the years without any problem until now. So I cleaned the GPU, I removed the old original thermal pads and placed new ones that are same thickness. I put the...

Hello there. Yes, the Blue Yeti is available but is almost 2.5 times more expensive than the ones I've selected. All of those are around $70-80 price range.

Hello there! I need help with choosing between three microphones. I have select 3 of them that I know are similarly priced in my country and I'd like to ask which one of those is better than the rest of the bunch. Also I'm always open for other suggestion for similarly priced microphones. The...

I'm using Pure Rock Slim and my CPU can't even hit 50C thermal regarding that and 650W PSU with GTX 1060 , so it is not near any throttle or danger of getting hot/fried.

Oh lol.. That doesn't really make any sense to me. Why I need extra speed when my CPU is not in use?

Hello there. I don't really know how the turbo is supposed to be working...BUT when I don't use any programs,games etc the CPU turbos to 3.2 which is the max turbo freq of this CPU. When I start playing a game and CPU gets loaded in the 50%s load it drops to 2.993mhz (3ghz) which is the...

The dynamic contrast on monitor settings is turned off. It is not monitor related problem since few people already confirmed that the color is different from 1 another. If it was a monitor problem people woudn't see a difference in colors. I also followed the guide day 1 when I got the monitor...

I don't know if "tones" is the right word to say this but let say it that way... 2 Days ago I got new monitor ViewSonic XG2401 and I spotted something .When There is darker app over desktop or over browser , app like Discord the colors are getting a bit more lighter into the background. When...
