GTX670 probably dead?

Filip Klazar · Feb 23, 2014

Hi, first of all my rig-
AMD Phenom II X6 1090T stock
Asus crosshair formula IV extreme
Asus GTX670 DirectCu 2gb
8 gb corsair rams
(worst thing in my rig) pSU- eurocase 1050w

So I played whole day yesterday with my friends in DayZ standalne, today at morning I turned the PC on, listened some music while cleaning my house, then I started playing FC3 and after 20 minutes the screen goes black and sound freezes. I turned the PC off, waited for 20 minutes and then tried to boot it up. The mobo started to beeps (1 long 3 short) which means VGA problem. So I tried to reconnect everything and now I can boot up without beeping, the thing is that my screen after the classic 1 boot beep, and showing ROG logo goes black and I see Signal lost info on screen, then when I try to restart I can hear 1 long 3 short beeps again. What should cause the problem? Overheated 670, maybe dead? Bad PSU? Sorry for my poor english.

THanks for and advice!

run your setup outside the case, and post the results.

Filip Klazar :

does your gpu and cpu fans spins? Try clearing CMOS by reseating the motherboard battery, make sure to unplug your psu cable.

Filip Klazar · Feb 24, 2014

Yes, fans are OK, already tried clearing the cmos :/

I doubt it is completely dead. If it was you'd probably have pixels flying over your screen like I used to have; the GFX card is probably unuseable though.

I see your motherboard has multiple pcie X 16 slots, did you plugged gpu in other slots and gave it a try?
If it still doesn't then check with some other psu and just try to boot up without gpu and just using onboard graphics.

I would swap that garbage PSU out as soon as possible whether or not that is it right now

Filip Klazar · Feb 24, 2014

Yeah Im totally changin PSU for something more trustable

Im going to try boot with nvidia GT210 after work.
BTW I tried different PCIE slots, but no change.. The boot goes to ROG Logo and then POST (scaning drives) and than screen goes black.. And my mobo dont have onboard video card..

PS- there is no artifacts during loading the ROG screen which is animated, neither at post. So i think its the PSU fault (weak 12v cable or something) Im going to try nvidia GT210, switch to Corsair PSU (yeah not the best but better then that shit eurocase psu i have now) and have finger crossed. Hopefuly it works... :/

Filip Klazar :

lets hope that works after changing your psu

post your results after trying out new psu.
