GeForce GTX 1080TI Sudden Death

#1

Hello,

Today I’ve had some interesting failure.
I played a game, randomly, while being in a zoom meeting. Suddenly my screen turned off. I thought, oh my GDM crashed again, but no. When i switched tty, no picture. When i rebooted, no picture. My view went onto the pc, and I’m seeing my GPU being entirely off.
Now i thought, maybe it’s my PSU/mainboard/whatever, so i removed it, tried it in another PC. Nothing. Tried a rtx2080 (friends GPU) in my pc, worked perfectly fine. The card just suddenly said goodbye to the world.
I screwed the card apart, but saw no apparent burns or anything. I’m pretty nervous because I currently, understandably, don’t have the funds to buy a new GPU that’s even close to being equal to this card. Is there anything I can possibly do at home, that doesn’t cost a fortune? I sadly don’t have any tools besides 2 screwdrivers.

I don’t have home tools nor the knowledge to find out what is broken, nor do I want to stuff my GPU into my oven…

That’s the only way I revived my 8800GTX back in 2010, I stuffed it in the oven for few minutes (I don’t remember how many minutes nor the temperature) and it worked for a couple months… until it died again, the I did it again and it worked again for a month or so, then the same happened but the fix only lasted a couple days so I got tired of that shit and dumped it and I haven’t played videogames ever since. The thing is, it worked for me because the 8800 series was 90 NM architecture, (bigger and less complicated manufacturing process), the new GPUs are way more complicated and baking the card most likely won’t work.
