I find myself in a pretty bad situation and in need of some advice: My GPU is no longer working.
I went afk from my PC for a minute while I had a game on, nothing stressful , and when I came back I found my PC shut down: No blue screen or bars on my monitor just shut down. Restarting it PC I found that the GPU won't start: Even the fans won't spin and I don't get anything on either of my two monitors. I tried removing it and putting it back it, replacing the power cords from the PSU to it and uninstalling my drivers.
I still have warranty for it, but knowing Romania it would take some time for it to get fixed, but then it struck me that it could be my Motherboard itself: It certainly has been giving me some issues like refusing to start for certain periods of time when I reset my PC and forcing me to go through BIOS because "my overclocking settings have failed" ( although I didn't overclock for a long time until recently ).
Or it could be I lost an expensive GPU to my own foolish mistakes; Recently I lowered the fan speed from 50% to 40%, even so it was still running at just 80 degrees C so I assumed it would be fine, guess not.
