Error occurred with 1080TI device.
hi i have a 1080 TI thats might be dead but id like to fix it or atleast try. so for the problem is that it crashes when a driver gets loaded it crashes, boot loops, and heats up to a gaming temp at idle, (i say gaming temp because i cant get an actual reading and im comparing it to a 980 ti while gaming). Nvidia is outside my knowledge, im used to amd cards, my first thought was to re-flash the cards vbios but last time i tried i had a second gpu in place for video out but the system just locked up and im not sure where to look next. i used DDU several times to remove the drivers but it was still grabbing some sort of driver. Another issue is that with a internet browser hovering over the close tab some of the box is missing and scrolled across the screen, like small black pixels that go away after not hovering the close tab x. i should add that the gpu was tried on 2 different pc's with the same problems, crashing, heat, grabbing uninstalled drivers, weird close tab box scrolling, everything. It had very usable psu's on both pcs one a 1200w platinum, the other 750w gold. the cpus should fine be one is a 6700k cpu and the other a e5-1650 v2. let me know if you have a different solution, or if you need more info. thanks for the help in advanced
it has been apart and everything seemed fine, nothing got damaged, the thermal paste appeared a bit off but I replaced it with fresh paste and still faced similar problems. i haven’t investigated it much more over the past week or two since it wasn’t urgent.
I checked to confirm, but were the adjustments made properly at the IHS? It’s important to ensure the springs are in place to prevent over-tightening. Without proper contact, heat won’t dissipate effectively, leading to elevated temperatures even when there’s no load.
I applied the paste slightly before reassembly, thinking everything is fine. The IHS appears correctly. I separated the GPUs beforehand and moved on once the spring was fully compressed and secure. Temperature isn’t my main concern—it might be a software or firmware problem causing the GPU to overheat.
