I recently tried my hand in buying a used Asus GTX 980 Strix for a great deal.
After installing it, it seems to work fine. But after starting up a game, the GPU fan starts spinning rapidly and then the GPU crashes, showing a black screen before I even get INTO the game itself.
To make matters worse the GTX 980 doesn't even show a display now even when I turn the computer on.
My old MSI GTX 760 graphics card still works completely fine though and I have the Corsair TX650M, so I don't think it's a power supply issue. Though I could be wrong.
So what do you guys think? Is it broken or some other factor?
The people I got it from are called BLINQ just in case anyone else had any bad experiences or know if they're reliable or not.
