Hello guys,
So my Acer Predator G5910 started having an error of 1 long beep with 2 short beeps at start up.
The PC wouldn't start up anymore.
I send it to service, and the guy tells me that my graphic card has failed.
I ask him with what to replace it with. He says to me with GTX 1060.
Keep in mind Predator G5910 is pre built and also used to run GTX 580.
Anyways I thought since the guy works with PCs he must know.
Later he calls me and tells me that GTX 1060 is not working, and the only card that can work is something simple like Nvidia 210.
I tell him what about if I order a used GTX 580 that works, will that do. He says that it will not run either. There is also a problem with the motherboard and says I can't run gaming graphic cards.
My question is. If Nvidia 210 is running, how can a damaged motherboard run it?
He says 210 will do for movies and stuff but no gaming. I ask him won't it crash since the motherboard is damaged, he says he tried 210 and it worked.
Is this guy completely ignorant, trying to fool me or what's going on?
How can a damaged motherboard run a 210 but not a working 580.
Please someone enlighten me.
