Hi,
So a couple days ago my pc crashed and when restarting it only 1 of my monitors would work with a black border around it
I thought maybe the drivers were corrupted so uninstalled with ddu and reinstalled but no luck.
Tried on board graphics they're fine.
Different cables for monitors and pci cables but no joy.
Used a clean install of windows and Ubuntu(which shows black screen) and it doesn't work on them either
Put my old gtx 560ti in and it worked perfectly fine.

I was using a gtx 680 and have been for quite a few years, could it mean the end of it?

All help appreciated
 
Solution
was it during high stress situation? if so you could have a PSU issue as well (i imagine the PSU in your system is also pretty old)

Sounds to me like your 680 may have gone bye bye.

You could take the GPU cooler off and physically inspect it.

It was during Idle which is more confusing, psu like every part is indeed around 8 years old
It could've died tbh
What would i check for.

Tbh, I've been thinking of a new build for a while since this one is around 8 years old, maybe it's time to go for it
