My Rig-
Core- i5 2500k
MoBo- Asus P8P67 LE
GPU- ASUS EAH 6870
Memory- 8 gb RAM
Power- 750 W Thermaltake
Just built this rig a little under two monthes ago (my first computer, was so proud when I had finished it).
Its been working very well up until tonight when I was watching something on youtube. I noticed that the memory frequency was a little lower than normal, at 4200 on the Smardoctor. I decided to bump it up to 4250 (normally run it around 4300 for gaming which is perfectly acceptable to the smartdoctor program and many overclocking guides for the gpu). For some reason this time, the fan on the GPU went berserk (became very loud) and then the screen went black. I quickly turned off my desktop and tried to reboot it. Everything booted up except for the gpu. The gpu fan works fine still but there is no green light and no video connection. Did I completely fry my gpu? Is there any way to fix this?
