CPU: AMD 2700x
GPU: MSI RTX 2070 Armor (no overclock)
5 years 4 months old (in June 2024)
I was playing valorant and suddenly the game crashed saying "Graphic Driver Crashed! Make sure your graphic drivers are up to date".
After 10 minutes, I get many pixels on the screen. [Image]
Then almost the whole screen started pixelating with a couple of automatic restarts. [Image]
After 5 minutes of looking through pixels, another restart brought me to 800 x 600 resolution with one monitor giving no signal (in a dual monitor setup)
I tried with different cables & multiple display port slots but no combination started both monitors.
Device Manager's GPU status: "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)".
So I did a driver uninstall with DDU in safe mode + offline and reinstalled the driver with the exe downloaded from Nvidia's website. This made no change in resolution or device manager status. Nvidia control panel doesn't launch.
I tried installing drivers with Geforce Experience too and even though it did install the drivers but just before finishing the installation, it displayed a full screen of glitched pixels [Image] and then back to installation with a success popup. After installing, Geforce still shows the two installation buttons (express & custom) [as if the drivers were not installed for some reason].
Sometimes the Gigabyte Motherboard boot logo comes up with a lot of glitches too. [image]
For now I can boot on GPU at 800 x 600 resolution but the Unigine Heaven Benchmark doesn't start.
I am not completely sure if the GPU is dead or not.
Any help would be appreciated.
