Here's the problem. I made a rig to mine ethereum, but idea was to serve me in general as a new computer.
So I have 3 identical graphics cards MSI GeForce GTX 1060 Aero ITX 3GB. The motherboard is Biostar TB250-BTC, the processor is Kaby Lake i5-7600K. 8GB RAM.
I installed windows 10, drivers for chip set, audio, LAN, graphics ... etc
Not all 3 graphics were plugged in at the same time, EVER. Only one was plugged in at a time.
After installation there were no major problems all worked out well, i played a high definition videos on youtube and the picture is great. Temperature of the graphics card is approx. 40 ° C, but when pass 52-53 ° C limit fan turns on and cools it below 50 ° C and then the fan is turning off. And that's all right.
However, after a while, I noticed that the image on youtube is bugging, a little bit, like when you are missing video codec or something, so the image is deformed. I take a look at the temperature of the graphics and I see that it has gone to over 90 ° C and the fan does not spin! You can not make him spinning whatever you do. So I turned off the computer and leave it for an hour so the graphics card cooled, and then I turned computer on only to conclude that the problem with youtube bugging persists even though the graphics card is no longer hot. I thought I might have burned the card, so I pug it off and try the other graphics cards, but the problem with youtube bugging remains. I reinstalled windows 10 again, installed all the drivers, I tried plugging in graphics cards, one at a time, and what ever graphics card is plugged in problem remains and this video bugs were sometimes so intense that it occasionally paralyse the computer and I have to restart it.
After that I haven't touched anything for a month, and then I decided to try again. I installed windows 10 (bit older version this time) . I Installed drivers for motherboard and graphics card. Again everything looked OK with the graphics running at 35-45 ° C typically, while when it occasionally pass over 53 ° C the fan turns on and cool it below 50 ° C and then fan turns off.
I tested it a couple of minutes playing HD videos on youtube and everything was quite good, there was no splitting image, no bugs. I try all three graphics cards (one at a time) and all three work solidly including one that was once overheated.
So I started to install other software I use, surfing on youtube while waiting installations to comlete. And at one moment I noticed the bugs and errors in video. I take a look at Speccy to see what is temp of graphics card and it was over 70 ° C and the fan will not play again. I shut down every program that was on, I waited a bit to see if the fan will turn on. Then I touched heatsink and it was only then the fan turns on and started spinning like crazy and temperature drops below 50° C in 15 seconds. But video bugs remain. And what is even more interesting, the video is bugging when I plug in and run another graphics card.
Does anyone have similar issues? Does anyone have idea what could be a problem and, of course, a solution?
I have to stress that I did not try to do anything that was more demanding for a graphics card, like games or something. I just played youtube videos.
