Question GPU and Ram suddenly died

[Esteban Mantero]

I need some help figuring out what could be the cause of my GPU and ram dying

I was playing a video game and suddenly screen went black, i could still heard the sounds of the game though. Restarted the pc and same thing , pc would turn on but no picture, plugged the monitor to the motherboard vga slot and restarted it and i got signal to the monitor. Turned off the pc and disasembled it and put it back again to check if maybe the gpu wasnt plugged in correctly and when I turned it on again, no matter what i would do the pc would not start, took out the gpu and still nothing, got the yellow led on the motherboard indicating a problem with the ram so i swapped it and it worked with no gpu.

Swapped to an old gpu and old ram and the pc is working fine, tried the gpu on another pc and no picture, just the coolers spinning at max speed just like on my pc.

Now Im wondering if it could be a faulty psu (it is currently working fine) or a motherboard problem (also working fine with the swapped in old components)

Specs:
i5 11600k
AMD RX 6700xt
MSI B560 pro-E
32gb 2x16 Hikvision U10 DDR4
XPG Core Reactor 80 plus gold

difficult to say, you will have to sort things our by replacing components.

but would reinstall all like before and reset the bios by jumper, then power on an have a look if it´s booting again.
check the memory by running memtest.org usb autoinstaller (bootable USB flash drive)

just confirmed the gpu died, rams is working fine. The gpu was 1 year old but warranty wont cover it by a 12 day margin so RIP

What in the world a GPU with 1 year warranty? I figured most if not all have 3 years warranty or more. What maker&model?

AMD gives all their GPUs a 2 year warranty.
