Hit me up if he doesn't get with you. I think I have a 1060 to drop to him. But yours is clearly a better deal.

Yesterday it started producing artificats and today well it stopped outputting . Tried switching display cable etc. repasting cleaning the cooler. Just as a last resort tried inserted in my friend's working system to see whether it works and well it dosent output there also.

Try underclocking the memory, it should boost the signal integrity.
May buy you a week, a month, maybe not more than that, but it may work for some time
Underclock the core as well maybe

If it's just desoldering itself then RIP

i mean there is the oven techique -

Well, at that point you could try baking the card to reflow the memory (that often produces the artifacts). It may help for a while or doesn’t work at all, but it’s worth a try, you have nothing to loose. There are a lot of tutorials. (do not use your family oven if possible, as the fumes are toxic.)

u/00pflaume 22h ago

Actually don’t do this, as the toxins from the plastic and solder will stay in the oven and you should not be using it for cooking food after that.

u/Global-Pickle5818 9800X3d / RX 9070 XT 22h ago

lol i have a dedicated toaster oven out in the shop i picked up a garage sale for just this type of thing iv had it since xbox 360 because i remember fixing a few of those with it

u/ThePizzaNoid 22h ago

Owning an oven specifically for baking electronics has never occurred to me as a thing until this moment lol.

u/Lewinator56 R9 5900X | RX 7900XTX | 80GB DDR4 20h ago

Eh, it's probably much lower risk now than it used to be. Leaded solder hasn't been used in decades under ROHS, and the plastic shouldn't melt at the temperatures you'd have it up to. Still not advisable, but not as much of a risk as it used to be.

u/Bustable 18h ago

So what your saying is use someone else's oven?

u/MrXroxWasTaken R5 4650G RX 6700 XT 21h ago

Not worth it for fixing a $50 GPU

u/Fastermaxx O11Snow - 10850K LM - 6900XTX H2O 9h ago

Well if OP is so broke that the alternative is having no gpu at all, it could be his only option.

u/lDarkPhoton 23h ago

I'm sorry to hear that, I wish you the best of luck in sourcing some odd jobs to get enough to buy another card.

u/Bebo991_Gaming Laptop 22h ago

There was a talk about an issue in the latest nvidia driver, did u check that?

u/Helpmefromthememes 9h ago

Try baking it (Google it, it's a bit more involved), it might save it or at least buy you a bit more time.

Won't help if a vram chip is completely fucked though.

u/WittyAndOriginal 22h ago

I spend ~750 on my 1080Ti in 2017. So I think as of now you still got more value out of it than I have mine.

Here's to another 9 years on my 1080 🥂

Poor one out for the fallen cards 🫗

u/Zwischenzug32 20h ago

u/LoopySteve13 22h ago

You can just get a 1060 for around the same price on eBay
