Please read my incident carefully. my GPU IS NOT OVERHEATING. I REPEAT, IT ISNT OVERHEATING. Because it shuts down at 27 deg when i last saw it. Subsequent tests show gpu also shuts down at any temp!
Ok so i used to game a lot on my r9 270 and everything was fine. Then i didnt game for 1 month or so but i decided to come back. First i played civ 5 on a very huge intense map. Then suddenly, the GPU shuts down and the monitor has no signal BUT the system is still on(i can hear sounds). I tried reconnecting the cable but no use. Then, from then onwards, ANY GAMES I RUN will cause the GPU to shut down!
Additionally, if my system goes to sleep and i wake it, the monitor WILL NOT TURN ON as the GPU HAS NO INPUT!
Additionally two, when my gpu shuts down, i can hear the fans go full speed.
I have a MSI radeon r9 270 i bought in december. The fans are working fine, drivers updated, temps not over 30(because it shuts down when i turn on a game....)
I DONT KNOW WHY IT SUDDENLY WENT LIKE THIS. I bought this gpu for witcher 3 and watch dogs. 1 month ago i can game fine and i did not change anything during that time.
Also, my CPU core temp and HDD and ram temps are fine too.
So i suspect could it be that my PSU is failing? Too much voltage pumped?
I have an Antec neo eco 520w which is SUFFICIENT enough for the card.
