Blown GPU

[REGIreaper]

How would i know if my GPU is blown , if i go into a game it throws Green block on the screen and i can still play the game but the screen is full of green block .

I have now uninstalled all my drivers and then reinstalled them , DirectX , Geforce and PhysX by nvidia . And its all the new drivers .

And it still does the same thing .

So should i start to worry and call my supplier so long to come get it to be fixed as the GPU is still uder 2 years of warrenty or WHAT should i do .

Any ideas guys .

Thanks

Monitor

or

Graphic card!!
Over heated or a few diode's melted

or screen resolution is low

Monitor is fine tested it so it should be my Graphics card

98% , don't you have a built in(default) graphic card to test if using a external

Don't know which you have but I've got a GA-M57SLI-S4 and I am also void of an on-board GPU. Gigabyte seems to love doing that. Asus, on the other hand, has almost no boards without a GPU on-board.

Sounds like you might have an overheating problem. What temps is your card running at?

Usually it's the problem with the onboard Memory of the graphic card.

Try us Riva Tuner's overclock function to downclock both GPU/MEMORY clock speed, sometimes it's a temp fix but if it's under warranty, send it in.

My Gpu runs at 47-50 degrees on idle and if i start playing games it goes to 58-60 degrees , which does not seem right .

Its fine... My PC temp runs at 50-60 depending on the room temp..
Try to clean the fan and that silver part wheres theres dust.. Your temp may drop...

It does not have a fan on it , it has got on huge heatsink on it that looks very mean . and its clean . but im sending it in , as my dual screen on GPU does not work aswell . All settings correct .

Google it , Gigabyte 8600gt
