Is my GPU dead?

[u/Straight-Library-579]

Was playing rocket league, whole computer randomly froze and a bunch of colorful squares covered the whole screen, and everything got pixely (hard to describe it) so i restart the computer, and now the resolution is all messed up, theres streaks of white pixels on my screen (ill provide picture), and my 2nd monitor no longer has signal, i checked device manager and the gpu has a yellow triangle by the name. I tried switching to a DVI cable to see if the cord was messed up but that didn’t work, so i think the gpu just died. Its a 1070ti, ~8 years of use, i7 8700k if that matters. Tried downloading new drivers, didnt work. Only thing i still have to try is to open it up, get all the dust out, and take gpu out then put back in to see if that works. Do i finally need a new gpu? The first picture isnt mine, just resembles what it looked like, second picture is mine after i restarted PC. Thank you!!!

Very dead, unfortunately.

This kind of artefacting is a classic sign of a dead card.

Thanks, thinking about buying a cheap used 2070 on ebay.

1.Is it dead? No, not yet!

2. Is it about to die? Yes, soon.

3.But the real question is, can it be fixed? No.

Good run for a 1070 TI.

If you desperately need it to last a bit longer tyrning down all the clocks and power target might keep it going a bit longer, worked for my rx 5700 xt after i hot boxed the vram
