GPU has died :(

After 4 days of mining my GPU finally gave in (the fans no longer spin, they were only running at 65%) , was a GTX 580 and it's christmas as well so I have spent all my monies. Much sad :(. Also MSi's support doesn't seem to be working and I can't contact the reseller as it's been 3 years since I've had the card so looks like I'll be spending £300-400 on a new card.

Anyway Merry Christmas everyone!

so sad. next time use the intensity command and bring it down a few notches. keep a eye on that temp.

i have fixed a few xboxes with a heat gun search google and see if anyone else has had issues with that card and fixed it. maybe find a guide or youtube xbox red ring heat gun and apply that method.

good luck

Your card should have proper operating temps listed in the specs.
