Hi I’ve got a 2080 ti made by Gigabyte in a custom build ryzen 7 3rd gen motherboard gigabyte b450m b53h 2 8gb gskill royal silver ram modules an 850w thermaltake toughpower gf1 argb psu and a 500gb 2.5 western digital Scorpio black and a pioneer bd burner as it’s specs I’ve tried all I can think of stabilised the drivers added a second pcie power cable but it still crashes it runs for about 5 to 10 minutes before the entire pc has a gui crash (graphical user interface crash) is there a way I can fix this or is it time to replace it Update (02/25/2021)
just found this on the card when doing a further inspection of it a few of those are shorting by the looks of it also some of you asked about drivers I’m running the latest stable rtx driver the others windows installed
The best thing to do as it seems to be a manufacturing fault is to find out if anyone else had the problem then go to gigabyte and say your card failed due to a manufacturing fault (you get a government given warranty for 6 months that you don’t have to prove it wasn’t your fault but after you do have to prove that) if they say no and keep refusing got to the consumer ombudsman or their alternative dispute resolution provider who is on your side. At least this is in the uk, you might want to check your consumer rights act if you are elsewhere.
