    EVGA GTX 980 Ti dropped dead after changing thermal paste

    Agh I accidentally closed the window without saving a draft and kinda rage quit. mnewxcv didn't make any difference, sadly :( I will find a local electronics hobby club and ask around whether someone has experience on this level of stuff, and if we could inject the 1.0V and as little current...

    EVGA GTX 980 Ti dropped dead after changing thermal paste

    I tried to consult the manual of the multimeter, but it doesnt mention anything about marking the thousands with K. It is a manual one, and nothing denotes of having such markkngs either. With lowest setting of 200ohms it goes OL so I assume we are good with the readings on A2 and A3 Regarding...

    EVGA GTX 980 Ti dropped dead after changing thermal paste

    I didn't actually even think about this. That also explains why most likely my readings differed so wildly. Both A2 & A3 measure about 12.0 on 20k ohm setting, with the heatsink on.

    EVGA GTX 980 Ti dropped dead after changing thermal paste

    Hey all! I have had quite a joyride past five days. Last Saturday I ran into an issue, that my PC crashed when I was booting up more intensive games. No biggie, maybe a temp issue right? Well, I fired up HWinfo64 monitoring and logged data to check whether it'd be a temperature issue, whilst...

    Also the 420 character limit on these messages is awful, left out half of what was in originally :(

    Hi! You've received dozens of messages akin to this, but I thought maybe you'd be interested in a pickle: EVGA GTX 980 ti stopped working after changing thermal paste. I have checked possibly dislodged components, and nothing seems to have shorted. The PSU fires its failsafe when the card is...
