PC experienced problems today, GPU occasionally lost signal and sometimes the whole system restarted. Diagnosis of your Nvidia RTX 3070 GPU.

The latest change I made to my PC was installing a Kingston 1Tb M.2 drive, which I had to remove from behind the GPU to fit it in. Since then, the system has worked fine except for today. I’m worried it might be a faulty GPU because I’ve reattached both the GPU and all the cables on both sides of the PSU and GPU. At first I thought it could be a RAM problem, so I ran MEMTEST, but the screen still crashed randomly, confirming it’s not a Windows issue.

You repeated the process of repositioning the GPU and its power connectors carefully. Still facing issues? I don’t understand what’s happening with the video. What is your PSU? Can you swap the two GPU power connectors (just kidding). Edited December 20, 2024 by leclod

I also repositioned the setup. The clip was meant to demonstrate the GPU receiving the signal it shouldn't. I plan to replace the cables after using DDU this morning with DisplayDriverUninstaller.
