I was playing csgo and suddenly there was a black screen on the monitor and it didn't go. So i tried restarting my pc then my monitor went to power saver mode and no signal from my monitor. So i tried using different vga cable to connect to my monitor. still it didn't work out. So i connected my pc with my Tv with hdmi. And i got it to boot up but after win 10 loading, i got black screen. so i went to safe mode and uninstalled drivers with ddu. and tried installing latest amd drivers. and then i got black screen again while installing. so i repeated and tried different versions of drivers with no results. So i tried re plugging my gpu but it didn't work too. I removed my gpu and then tried to connect with my monitor and my monitor worked. I had thought monitor had some fault too. Does it mean that my card is dead?

I had overclocked the card for few months with no problems.

I want to know if there is any fix for this except that oven method. my card is not in warranty. Can i get it repaired from Sapphire ? do they have services in India?

 


It worked well for months. never got any problems. I had took a screenshot of the overclocks. my temps were fine too. 🙁
I have this card from only 2 years.

It could be an old bitcoin mining card sold after it became non profitable to gpu mine which would explain why it failed so early.
Anyway, your gpu is dead and what you're seeing before installing the drivers is what your cpus igpu is running.
You'll need a new gpu now. Preferably a new one and not used.
 


I have my igpu disabled. 🙁
 
Gpu is dead anyways. there is an other issue with this. when the gpu is connected to my monitor, it shows no display even at boot while it does when connected to TV. Why is this happening?

Does the oven method work if an overclock has caused the death of a gpu (Thats what i think).
