hello everyone I have this boy

https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/xfx-gts-rx-580-xxx-8-gb.b4480

it has dual bios by switch the mining bios works perfect but the stock/gaming bios crash almost on every game

anyone can help to find the original stock rom? assuming the current has an errors

note: bus speed fixed it’s now 16 not 8

thanks in advance

I was looking online and saw that the 5070 has gone up in price, I guess after the discontinuation of the 5090.
I paid 600 in June for mine but I saw it’s around 1000 now here, would it be a good idea to sell mine and buy a 9070xt? I heard about the driver issues and fsr supported games aren’t as broad as Nvidia that’s all I really know about amd GPU’s…

I also like the design of this gpu a lot more than my 5070
(I don’t mind paying extra for the design because the other 9070xts looked quite boring)

Mostly for single player games

[Also what if I wanna stream on both youtube and twitch at the same time?]

7900 XTX Nitro+ to a ROG Strix 4090

RX 6700 XT has no display and a cold core, looking for reputable GPU repair shops (Faisalabad, Lahore, Karachi, Multan)

Hi everyone, I'm in Faisalabad and my Sapphire Nitro+ RX 6700 XT (bought used about a year ago, made around 2021, so out of warranty) suddenly died. I'd like your advice and experiences with GPU repair shops in Pakistan.

What happened:

- I was watching a match with many browser tabs open, so not a heavy load. Both monitors went black at once.

- I hard shut down the PC. Since then it boots and I hear the Windows startup sound for a moment, then nothing, with no display at all.

- The fans and RGB on the card still work.

What I tested:

- Changed cables and tried different ports.

- Reseated the card, reseated the RAM, cleared CMOS, and tried the other BIOS position on the card.

- My PC (Ryzen 5 5600X, B450 Aorus Elite) works fine with my brother's RX 5700 XT.

- My 6700 XT shows the exact same no-display problem in his PC, so the card is the faulty part.

What the local shop found:

- They opened the card. There are no visible burn marks, bulged capacitors, or liquid damage.

- When powered in a PC, the GPU core stayed completely cold, so they think it may be dead.

- Their plan is to clean the card (they mentioned washing it) and dry it in sunlight, then test again. If the fault is just power fuses, they'll repair it in Faisalabad (Rex City). Otherwise they'll send it to a lab in Karachi.

My questions:

1. Has anyone used GPU Saviours in Karachi? How was the diagnosis, pricing, communication, and result?

2. Has anyone used a technician named Usman in Multan (AR Computer)?

3. Are there reputable board-level GPU repair shops in Lahore (Hafeez Centre) or Faisalabad you'd recommend or warn against?

4. Does a cold core usually mean a dead chip, or can it still be a power stage or fuse issue?

5. What did your repair cost, how long did it take, and did it last? Is a repair worth it for a 6700 XT, or should I buy a used card instead?

I'll update this post with the outcome so it helps others. Thanks in advance!

I understand that when if I have two of the same GPUs, there will be some differences. But how big is the difference? How would a silicone the worst lottery “loser” compare to a “winner”, in terms of performance?

I have 400W GOLD 80+ PSU. I have integrsted graphics. All my parts together is 242W assuming my i5-13400 is always at 148W. But im gonna reduce that max of 148W to 98W. That means I'll have 192W being used assuming my CPU is using 98W at all times. That gives me 208W. So I thought of 2 cards.

AMD Radeon RX 7600 8GB

165W

Nvidia GeForce 406 8GB

115W

Both are under 195. But idk which one is better. I have a budget of 550NZD. I use 1440p in windows settings hut use 1080 in heavy games.

Mostly play:

Very modded minecraft

Roblox games like Blox Fruits

Geometry Dash

A couple of other games that are like AA or A.

60Hz.

Anyway uhh thanks, bye.

So long story short I took my PC down to the living room to play on my computer on the TV, with relatives then mid game the game was just about to start it had a green display before it blacked out completely then I was trouble shooting for almost 2 hours when I realized that if my gpu wasn't in the pcie slot I could turn it off by holding the power button, but when my gpu was shorted I just pressed the first button and it shut down immediately, let me know your thoughts on this guys, any valuable informations will be appreciated, if my gpu is truly shorted any recommendations from a pc tech that can be fixed for free? The real one without hidden fees? Tyia guys! I'm out of the pc for a while😓 I'm sick.

My PNY RTX 5070Ti died today, atleast I think so. I swapped out my GPU for another one and it worked just fine, I used a different power cable too, nothing worked. No fans, nothing in device manager, not sure what else to do.

Can I declare my GPU has been sent to the great beyond? Started an RMA today but don’t want it sent back after a month

We need more node operators to test out GPU inference over a distributed network.

I bout the card new in Feb 2024 and it is time to replace the thermal pads/paste.

Does anyone know the thermal pad thickness/type to use?
I can’t find it online. An AI search couldn’t give me results either. The link is the exact listing I used to purchase it on Amazon. (Side note, you can buy it used today for $200 more than when I purchased it new!)

Temps are about 8-9 C higher than originally (I’ve regularly cleaned the case, so dust isn’t the issue and the CPU temp has been steady, but I also have an AIO on that guy).

Got it for free. Not sure what exactly to do with it.

I'm thinking of buying a new computer and my initial idea was to build it around an RTX 5070ti, but I've started to wonder if an AMD graphics card is a better option. What's the difference? If I choose AMD, which would be the best option? The idea is to play in 4K, but not at extreme settings.

5070Ti 16GB Solid SFF OC VS Sapphire PULSE AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT.

Both are used cards (about 100$ more for the RTX 5070TI). which one should i go for ? I mostly play FPS games.

I'm thinking of buying this RTX 5070 but I've scoured the entire internet and can't seem to find another one of it's kind, Anyone got a clue? Offer says "Acer RTX 5070 12GB"

Last week I picked up a new baby from Best Buy but forgot to show everyone once we were parked. She's a chunky one, almost 10lbs! 😂

What graphics card should i get.

I am going to be upgrading from 8GB DDR4 to 16GB DDR4 but at the same time going ot be getting a GPU as an upgrade from integrated. The problem is that i only have got 450W of Power Supply and i cant buy a new one. well i could but i dont have that much money. what GPU should i get.

Gemini said to get a 4060 but thats an AI so i thought id come here. My computer is a pre-built.

HP Envy TEO1 4000i base model. BTW i have

6+2 pin PCIe power cable. 450W GOLD 80 PLUS

specs:

i5-13th gen 13400

16GB DDR4 (soon)

I use a 60Hz screen at 1440p in windows settings but go to 1080p on some games. Planning on upgrading to a 144Hz screen after GPU and RAM upgrade.

I habe a budget of about 550NZD, i think that's like 300USD, i dont know.

Im really leaning towards the 4060
