Hi All,
Thankful for any input or suggestions with my issue below, thank you in advance.
I'm having a serious issue with my GPU, a EVGA 980ti SC, which causes power surge reboots.
I bought a new computer 4 months ago, bought everything new expect for the GPU which I bought used. For 3 weeks it ran just fine and then i started getting hard reboots without BSODs.
It varies from game to game, Subnautica kills the comp the quickest. WoT and WoWS killed it in 5mins before GPU cooler reset, now I can run it for an hour.
Titanfall 2 crashed after 10mins before, can run 2 - 3 hours now.
In Total War: Warhammer 2 the card could run for longer in dx12 mode then in dx11, at least from that I experienced.
Have never been able to crash it with stresstests, might be possible if pushed even harder though.
No temp issues that can be detected with software monitoring, when pushed hard in games it goes up to 72C and holds that temp pretty well.
Everything runs just fine until reboot, no stutter, artifacts, screen issues etc.
I have tried a lot of things and I will try to keep it as short as possible.
Clean install of windows, drivers, rollback of drivers
Reset everything in the case. No change
Ran all stresstests I could find. Was never able to crash it this way.
Changed to a more aggressive fan curve in Afterburner (this improved uptime before reboot)
Change to my old 280x. Runs just fine
Tested another PSU. Same issue
Removed GPU cooler and applied new cooling paste, the GPU was well maintained and clean. (Improved uptime a lot)
Replaced thermal pads on backplate. No noticeable improvement
Test ran the card in a friends computer. This gave the power surge detected error
Running low in ideas on what could be tested or done to fix this issue.
Full load Total War: Warhammer 2
Idle load screen Total War: Warhammer 2
Power supply surges error message during test in other computer
Thanks everyone!
