Hey,
I've never asked this type of thing before so let me know if I miss a bit of information. I built a new computer and after around a month my GPU seemingly stopped powering on. Over the month I did have two random freezes that I was too lazy to investigate. After going on a one week holiday I came back to find my GPU fans not spinning or displaying an image.
My card is: Gigabyte Radeon HD7970 Overclocked 3GB
I've tested the PSU and pci-e slot by using my old GPU with the same cables and stuff. Although the power required is a bit smaller it worked fine. Oh another thing to note is this happened around a month ago, I just haven't had the time to sort everything out. I tried using it again today, the fans span at like max speed for a little bit before stopping and never spinning again(although the fans span I don't think it produced any video).
My pc specs are:
G.Skill Ares F3-1866C9D-8GAB 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3
Western Digital WD Black 2TB WD2002FAEX
Intel Core i5 3570K
Silverstone Strider Plus 750W ST75F-P
ASUS P8Z77-M PRO Motherboard
Pioneer DVR-220LBKS Black 24x DVDRW OEM
Thank you.
PS: I do have warranty, but I'd like to make sure this wasn't somehow my fault before stuffing around with the warranty.
