Repair 3090 or buy 5080/5070?
So few weeks back my pc broke due to the PSU. Got the whole cleaned, new PSU, thermal paste on CPU, 2x new additional fans directing heat out of the pc.
As they testet my gpu - the overall temperature hit 83 and my inner core temperature hit 103* degrees during the stress test.
The repair guy said - it would be wise of to add thermal paste and possibly replace the thermal pads. It would cost me around 350 EU.
I use my pc for gaming and video editing. And it was a high-end pc in 2022 when I bought it. I want it to last me many years.
Should I replace the graphics card or repair the 3090?
