Question Unable to Locate Serial Number for ASUS RTX 4090 GPU

Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out to the community for help with an issue I’m facing regarding my ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4090 GPU. Despite multiple attempts, I’ve been unable to locate or identify the serial number of the graphics card, which is essential for warranty claims or support from ASUS.

Here’s a summary of what I’ve tried so far:

  1. Physical Inspection: I’ve checked every visible part of the GPU, including the exterior and PCB (after carefully disassembling it). Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a label with the serial number anywhere.
  2. Software Tools: I used GPU monitoring and diagnostic software (like GPU-Z and AIDA64), but the serial number does not appear in the results.
  3. Barcode Confusion: The barcode label on the back of the card did not contain the required serial number when I contacted ASUS support.
I’ve already reached out to ASUS, but their responses so far have not been helpful. Since this card is performing exceptionally well and has been tested with various stress and performance tools, I am sure it’s not a counterfeit. However, I can’t proceed with ASUS support or warranty claims without the serial number.

Has anyone faced a similar issue with ASUS GPUs? Are there any hidden locations or software tools that could help identify the serial number? Any guidance or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your help!
Ahmad

You may be able to use Powershell.

Google:

"powershell get gpu serial number"

You may need something like the following cmdlet.

Get-PNPDevice -Class 'Display' | Format-List

Open Powershell as admin.

You can copy and paste cmdlet at the PS> prompt.

The serial number may be embedded in one of the ID fields.

Get's only gather data and do not change anything.

Reference:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/p...evice/get-pnpdevice?view=windowsserver2022-ps

If Get-PNPDevice does not work then you may need to try Get-WmiObject.

Dear ralston18,

Not surprising.

ProblemDescription :


I have the original box and could not map the box serial number to any of listed "ID"s.

However, it is possible that the box may not be the right box..... TBD.

= = = =

In the mean time check for a serial number this Nvidia link:

https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2040

My results from the link did not match the box either.

I will see what else I can find.
