What is this error?

Danger_Noodle · Jun 8, 2018

I have gotten this error several times now. It's not often or all that consistent. Some times it will happen shortly after boot a few times in a row. Then it won't happen again for a few months. However, it's concerning. It requires a full hard reset of my pc. Seems like a dying component. Someone said it looked like faulty video memory, but my card is new (a 1080ti purchased last November). Just wondering what the issue could be and what I can do to resolve it.

Artifact = defective gpu RMA it.

On a longshot could be pad psu not supplying enough memory or overheating.

Can you RMA after six months though?

Danger_Noodle :

Most manufacturer's have at least a 1 year warranty but this would be a better question for Asus, I'd contact them ASAP.

I did, 3 years on new cards. So I'm in the clear if it's that. But I suspect what the other user said may be true. It could be my PSU. I'm gonna try and get the PC off the carpet and elevated to see if that helps.

What's the exact model of the PSU? As long as the quality is good your system should easily be under 650W including overclocking.

I said Corsair, but it's not. It's EVGA G2 750w Gold rated.

BUT, and this is the big but. It's been wet before. It works for now but I don't expect a long life out of it.

WildCard999 · Jun 8, 2018

When/How did it get wet? Unless the wiring is corroded or an issue happened afterwards I'd think you'd be ok now with it.

As for quality that was one of the best PSU's out there, manufactured by Super Flower. I own the G2 850W and it's been a excellent unit with my 780 SLI before and my 1080 ti now.

No there is no visible corrosion. My house flooded at one point but the pc was lifted. Several parts died, but the PSU kept on trucking. It didn't get THAT wet, but it definitely got a little wet.

Another thing is I live in a very old house built in 1916 and it's just dusty. Like nothing we can do about it dusty. Dust something off and it's dirty again an hour later. I'm thinking dust (I do my best) and being on the carpet may be causing the unit to overheat. So I'm going to lift my PC off the carpet onto a solid platform and make more concerted efforts to keep it clean. Just to eliminate the possibility, because an RMA turnaround will take quite a while and not having a GPU would really suck.

Yea it'd be a good idea to get it off the carpet, I don't suppose you have another GPU (even a older unit) you can put into the system to make sure the Asus is the issue?

Danger_Noodle · Jun 8, 2018

No. Even if I did it's not a consistent issue. It may happen 3 times in a row on boot then not again for 2 months.
