🟢Usually works:
On GPU's with graphical glitches / freezing / that stills how some life
Black display 50/50 chance
🔴Sometimes it does not work:
If you got a bad vram chip ( matrix effect screen glitch )
Or your pc was really dusty and something shorted out because of a cheap PSU
And you have full black screen
🟡Yes This Can Also Work On Laptop GPU's
I have tested it, after a heavy load of a game
It could break it again (PUBG is a good test to find out if your gpu is 100% or not) - At least the early version of the game

I baked my GPU in the oven 3 times in last 14 months and it still works.
How to bake?
and u still use the oven to bake food?
@@rickcolombo yes, i baked my motherboard
@@rickcolombo use a cheap toaster oven, do not ruin your cooking oven
what temp and how long did you bake
Dude,THANK YOU!
I spilled sprite on top of my computer yesterday. It fell through my radiator fans, through the radiator and on the back of my GTX 1080TI. Nothing immediately happened but I shut off my computer as fast as I could and cleaned what I could and attempted to turn it on...Black screen, nothing each time I tried, "no input". Swapped the card for my back up and found your video, studied religiously as well as studied your source video. Began dismantling and cleaning, didn't end up using WD-40, just water then dried and a few alcohol q-tip cleans. Got my $25 heat gun from wal-mart and got to work. Assembled after cooling and it worked just fine! Thank you for saving my bank!
Thats awesome dude. Glad the video helped :)
Keep in mind if it ever breaks Again. You should still have warranty
Does your card still work
@@SwayNotZay yes! Works great! Also, I do not know why I am awake right now. Did you have a similar experience?
I had the exact same thing happen to the exact same card, I had put it away but I’ll give it a shot at trying to repair it
I've been repairing electronics for decades. The problem with this repair is that it requires re-soldering of memory chips or GPU chips. Reheating may require flux. You know that tin becomes crap if you reheat it too long, especially lead-free tin. Lead-free tin is the beginning of all evil. Lead tin is now banned, but it may be the only option to repair really old electronics. I had a Raden HD 5970 Black Edition crash, if the GPU didn't die, it can be fixed. This is a dual GPU card. I have everything else, but missing air soldering tools. Baking at 200°C is not necessarily a technique because solder joints deteriorate when reheated. Reheating tin joints requires flux. Everything is much worse if the tin is lead-free. Lead tin is hard to buy, but as a professional repairman, I could buy it. Minimun requirement is flux ven tin joints reheated. If card works very short perieod time then solder joints go bad again. Than meen yuo need preheating machine and use of resoldering stencil for ships and that meas reballing. A microscope with a good camera would help and a thermal camera would be good. I'm missing almost all the tools. I have repaired a lot of electronics that can be over 20 years old. The new boss kicked me out, even though I had almost irreplaceable skills for the company's equipment. I knew a small and important part and I didn't share that information anymore. Panic sets in when I'm no longer in the company. My part can be missing and forever for that company. The Russian radar manufacturer was interested in me and the company wanted an employment contract and I don't know the reason, because I had already been selected. I have used to learn the command language, if I have done it with other devices, I know how to do it also with Russian devices. I have named it Kapula language.
I just did this with a digital heat gun and after melting the solder twice it seems to now be working great. I ran the heaven benchmark for 30 mins and played some Skyrim and so far no issues whatsoever.
Thank you for the tutorial!!!
How long did it last
@@bad.hokage Lasted for about 2 months before it died again (i think it overheated that time), I tried it again and it didn't work for more than a couple of days before it started to artifact again (without a HEAVY underclock). Pre heating it on the lowest temperature in a toaster oven (ideally something disposable) plus using a heat gun seemed to work best.
*washes graphics card moment*
I can t belive too
@Tristen Robert Yeah, you know how I hacked my girlfriend account too? Just by taking her phone. No methods required, and no computer covid effective.
My face when the water and gpu met... 😲
@@_mikssa_ i know it looks wrong but if he dries it good and bo moisture is on the card ot should work perfectly
@@moutainbikearc8582 exactly
Got a water damaged r9 270 my parents broke a few years back. They got it replaced with a 1050ti under warranty a long while back, but it would be pretty sweet to get this thing running again. It would be perfect for an emulation-centered build. I'm pretty sure my parents didn't know about the water (or whatever liquid) damage, but I could see it stained on the port shield. Wish me luck!
Was your gpu water damaged?
@@Priyven yeah and got it working after dissassembling and washing it with soap and water lmao. that was a last ditch effort though cus i tried several isopropyl alcohol baths before that which didnt work.
@@timesf2350 are you for real lol
I have an apple juice spilled GTX 970 which I've deeply cleaned with alcohol, should I give this a try? What kind of soap did you use and how well did you rinse and dry? Got a 3060 ti arriving soon to replace it but I love that 970 too much, it's a beast
@@musstta01 Sure, although I would personally ask someone with a ultrasonic cleaner to do it for you. Can get off the most stubborn of stains.
a motherboard tutorial replacing some components would be nice. like how to troubleshoot etc.
Man I cannot believe you ran the GPU underwater, I thought for sure it would kill it but I guess not ; )
When no electricity runs through semiconductors they are just inert metal and other elements. But he should not run water with particulates over it. He needs distilled water to clean with.
It already swam in coke!
D-did u just WASH THE GRAPHICS CARD
Thanks, it saved my R9 270.
I wish the GPU's would be manufactured with sockets like the CPU and motherboard do. Seems the manufacturers only want these to fail so you end up purchasing another card. Good on their part as it is more money in the bank for them but bad on ours part as it costs us MORE money. Of course this will never change as prices would be even more than what they are now. Sucks to be a gamer!!!!
There is no need to use WD-40 if you got no corrosion, water is fine if all you have is coke syrup
what about milk?
what about the oil from your skin on the thermal pads you touched and didn't clean off?
I have probably cleaned them off camera, and if I didn't it shouldn't matter that much, I usually make sure my hands are clean.
About to try this now with my Msi Gtx970 gaming x , your video is really nice and I wish it will work
Let me know how it goes
Did it work?
@Lance Angelo Well ?
Your method look very effective but as I'm new into this, and my both card have same issue, one of my card start having just one hour ago. It's very annoying that we don't get usually here in Pakistan GPU repair guy, specially trusted one.
I found your tool very useful but expensive also.
will try your method if I ever get chance to have these tools.
Thanks!
You can try using a strong hair dryer and use it for a longer time instead.
@@TotalKommando Thank you friend. :)
really appreciating this tip.
One thing more I wanted to ask about my recent dead GTX 760 which had display artifact issue that I installed on recent got system, which has 350watt normal PSU with 6pin connector. And I think this card requires min 450-500watt PSU.
Do you think my power supply cause this issue ? or maybe over heating cz when I start any game, my GPU temp goes to 80. I'm not sure what is normal or insane temp.
But for last days, this thought is confusing me that maybe this power supply was cause this issue... : /
@@abdulrehmanshaikh PSU shouldn't cause it to overheat, unless its feeding it bad power as in having a bad quality powersupply, its possible, but you might need to change your thermal paste. As for the Wattage 350 is fine for GTX 760
@@LifeKommando Thanks, I will surely try this :) I hope it work...
Nice video! Revived a reference 580 using the heat gun method. Been running fine for now.
Got any updates on the card? Does it still run?
Went though a bit of a hassle regarding the BIOS (that's another story) but it's still running perfectly fine!
@@controlthecontroller1918 1 year ago lol does it still work?
@@LuisC7 Yep still running, still waiting for GPU price drop lol
@@controlthecontroller1918 wowwww. My 8gb rx 480 died a few days ago. Yesterday it was working after baking but it only worked for 5 minutes. Im grabbing it again today after baking at a higher temperature. Wish me luck
11:46
where the thermal paste?
Dude that was brave washing it in the sink like that lol. Nice video, like the WD40 trick
I was going to give it a full WD-40 shower but remembered I was dealing with a sugary syrup lol so just went full water and dried it and used compressed level of air to push out any moisture
@@TotalKommando I never thought you could just wash it like that under a tap 😂
5:00 hold on. That hot air gun isn't burning up that cardboard box?
Why would it?
Wow thank for posting over charismas I blew three of my old graphic cards On a x79 mother board two two cards R7 260x that were SLI both factory OC to 1188 MHz and an ex-mining Rx 580 1350 MHz over over Christmas Im now use an old GT 200 600 MHz So Im going to truly try this
What happened?
Did you tried?
Any luck?
Hey did it work? please reply😢
this is only 50/50 chance,troubleshooting each components and replacing it, that's the best way....
i did this to some rtx cards.. but the micron memory chip are so bad..
Did I just see him wash a gpu in a washroom sick
Just performed this on an R9 270x and it worked first time!! 😀👍 Not sure how long it will last but I'm hopeful
I had a gpu work for an entire year, haven't retreated again yet. But in my experience as long as you are using it, giving it a daily load it will last longer. If you treat it then leave it in storage it's bound to go bad again. So using it is good lol
@@TotalKommando Ah well that's good to hear. This one would boot to windows but die as soon as drivers were installed so I think that means it wasn't too far gone I guess. Because some cards will artifact as soon as they boot which I would assume are more damaged. I set my rework station to 250C full air speed so not quite as hot as yours.
If it ever goes you can always open it up and give it a hotter treatment and you should be good. Good luck : )
@@TotalKommando Mine has just died for the first time today 🙁 going to reheat it
@@JackVincent how long did the fix last?
I have noticed that you washed the card with water .. is it safe ?
Yes as long as you are drying it properly right after
Total Kommando how is the correct way of drying it ?
Washing ICs with water will increase the moisture and even if fully dried, they can explode!
gpu still working today lol, overclocked and all
Of course. Yours worked.. mine didn't. 😁
Heating a Graphic card GPU with a heat gun wont acutely melt the graphics card. GPU As Graphic cards GPU are made primarily of multiple wafers of silicates molten silicate when melted turns in to magma. There is a considerable range of melting temperatures for different compositions of magma. All the silicates are molten at about 1200°C (when a part of rock) and all are solid when cooled to about 600°C. Often the silicates are grouped as high, medium and low-melting point solids So I doubt if you can damage them.
The board can take the heat but the components not so much, just gotta make sure you are not melting / shifting anything and not burning the caps etc etc
60% of the time it works every time.
Three years later! Is card still working ?
I got a few question.
2:16 can you describe how you washing it? Tab water is okay? If i use wet towel is better?
The green thing what is it? And you rub with something. What is it?
Im having a rx580 4g used mining issue.
Its still working??
Love your work!
I used regular tap water to wash off the coke syrup from the spill. You don't need to do that unless yours is filthy. The green stuff are the thermal pads. Yours might be white or a different color. Usually no need to clean them. If your gpu is having issues. You might just need only the heat portion.
172 degree he said but gun said Celsius. So I'm just confuse. Morning is explain
My graphics card took a dump on me. I took it apart, cleaned it thoroughly and reapplied thermal paste. Still didn't work so it's getting the heat treatment. This is my first time so wish me luck everyone!
did it work?
@@DeadpoolPlayz Unfortunately no. 😭 I still have it but I'm pretty sure it's a dead card.
@@jackdrags3269 f
@@DeadpoolPlayz Big f 😭
RIP
my evga geforce gtx 950 says invalid format and the screen goes blank how to fix it?
What was the final heat you heated the GPU too, not the gun as you mentioned? You mentioned 170 and 200........? Thanks
yea keep it around those. just make sure you are under the solder melting point and if you do go over it makesure the heat gun airflow doesnt blow the small component away
Thanks man!
Good to know.
Hey TK may i ask for your opinion?
My gpu died (vgar debug light on, not even booting/no signal, i troubleshooted everything and with my spare gt710 the system boots), it has no water damage i cleaned it up real good too. I have a hair dryer, i want to try reflowing the flux and was wondering how much time it would take (considering i dont have a digital ir thermometer).
Do 5 Mins on low fan speed medium heat, you just need to make sure you are not heating it to the point of melting the solder and blowing away small smd components.
Maybe you have some food thermostat needle you can measure the temperture, so you can get a general idea of how hot your heat gun is at what distance to avoid melting solder.
a friend gave me an old gtx 960, coke got spilled on it and the pc immediately turned off. we replaced the gpu and the psu to newer „safer“ ones but i still have the 960 here, either gonna sell it as broken or try to fix it one last time…
so i saw that below the vrm heatsink two small chips look faulty/burnt. i can tell that some if the solder is fucked up and the pcb around it as well as the thermal pad below the heatsink look a tiny bit broken so i guess thats why no motherboard/psu will even turn on with the card installed.
do you think heating it up could revive that thing even though the vrms were probably overheating?
One way to find out, doesn't hurt to try, Im not expert, but with a 960 worse case nothing happens, its already an old outdated card
Open it, clean it, heat it before trying to power it on, or sell it as is and forget about it lol
wow nice work!❤
Still running today : )
@@TotalKommando 😀 That is totally awesome! Mine shows green artifacts and stops while boot (windows spin dots and then black outs). Couldn't fix it with heating. What else should I try???
@@JR-zw2vb Sounds like a memory type of problem, probably bad memory or bad memory ball joints that need reflowing
@@TotalKommando So I tried running MATS, and all passes; but when booting into windows, it crashes. hmm. I'll try reflowing once more. Thanks for advice.
I thought it has no power..
My videocard has no power RX470 Sapphire.
The heatgun did not work.
Its probably dead dead. Could be anything. Might need a component replacement
what tools were used in this video. i think there were more than just a heat gun
awesome video
I use the heat gun five munities on low the setting it got my r7 260x oc going again this was the second time it happened black screen crash I tried the heat gun again and it worked again I wonder how many time we can do this
What is the Science behind heating to Fix GPU. Why does is break & why should we heat?
Check description
Did you use WD-40 on the PCB ?
Yea I first used it but remembered I was dealing with sugar, so wasting WD-40 was pointless, thats when I washed it with tap water lol followed by deep blowing and heating to make sure all the water is gone with most of its minerals
my gpu is good but when i play games, it is only 20-30 fps
my friend says its expired
can i still fix this?
what gpu, what cpu and how much ram do you have
@@TotalKommando i have intel i5 and 8gb ram
@James Kalaw whats your gpu, what games do you play, what generation i5 give me exact model and what resolution
update your drivers
If someone had similiar case to mine that would help. The issue with my card - AMD R9 390 (XFX) that it shows after a few minutes a black screen (in Windows 10). I reinstalled Windows and removed installed drivers again this still happens. I did one mistake in my PC case - it had really quiet fans to make it as silent as possible but they probably were badly built (negative pressure) and not cooling enough... which I suspect is a reason of my broken card. I noticed it was massively dust covered. I wanted to open it now and clean and probably will follow on the case above - will use some warm air from hairdryer. Will it help to fix it?
Unless you have a really good hair dryer, then it may fix it only a little, or you may have to put it really close to the chip and heat it for a longer time, clean the dust, replace the paste, clean your pc if its dusty and it hopefully it works
Wow. I can NOT believe that this worked. The other day my pc was working perfect, i played warzone for a bit, and my pc started freezing, and all of the colors got super vibrant, and then would either blue screen, or id havve to force shut down. after it happening a couple times, my desktop had a ton of gpu artifacts. after another couple crashes, i couldnt boot anymore with the gpu, and even my bios had artifacts. I followed your video, i used WD-40, rinsed with water, and removed the residue with isopropyl alcohol. Then i heated up the board, and began circling the chip, until mainly focusing the heat on the gpu chip. after a minute i saw the soldier around the chip, flow out ever so slightly, and then i eased of the heat and slowly cooled it down. I then sat it infront of my fan for 10 minutes to ensure no fluid was left, hooked it back up, and i reinstalled my gpu drivers. And its perfect! for anyone wondering i have a gtx770 SC 4GB. seriously appreciate the video! saved me some money for a little while atleast!
hot water and tiny bit of jet dry works best ;)
also dear god dont heat gun ur gpus untill u run nvidia mods diag software most of these cards get bad ram or just ram needs reflow
ps love the wd40 bath card must smell amazing after cleaning lol
i have a gtx 1060 6gb SC and it boots the system and display and everything but when i try to play a video or a game it crashes and i have to reboot and fin the same issue so is the heating method could fix this one ?
So… for me in my case…. I tried rebooting my PC that has been having problems since last year, took it apart tried to see what was wrong… putting back my GPU I suppose I forgot that the computer was still on ? Plugged my gpu in and saw smoke coming from it, would this still be revivable ?
Magic smoke spells rest in peace most of the time sadly, you might have shorted the connections in the slow as you were putting the card in
I have an question, I have a graphics card that failed, when I turned on the computer it started fine and got to the login screen but when I logged in maybe 10-20 secs later the computer freezes and a little later goes blue screen saying watchdog violation, it has been replaced but I was curious if the old one might be able to be brought back to life
Doesn't hurt to give this a try
this didn’t work for me :/
How do gpus die? Could it be because dog peed on the computer once, or is it because I used it alot
whats the explnation, what does heat do?
Good Work "Kommando" But Your GPU works temprory for you because You Disbalanced the "Soul" of your GPU using the Heat GUN and Washing the "Pulse" of PCB. I like your Coke edition brother. "Droping a Coke" is not a big Issue. If you just applying a "Contact Cleaner" on a GPU PCB it gives you 100% excellent chances to increasse your GPU lifespan and GPU gives you Hardcore perfomance once again!
Really need to use flux under the GPU for long term results.
What is that?
@@uphill248 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flux_(metallurgy)
I have 2060 msi ventus it always crashing and some time there is dot pixel on the screen, but when i see your video i told my self why me not using the heatgun so i will use it in a few days and i will give you the result.
Sounds good, keep me posted : )
Good Luck.
My gpu is perfectly working on my other computer but when i removed it and place to other computer it stops working. I tried placing it back to the original computer but did not work either. What seems to be the problem and how can i fix it?
Check maybe you broke a transistor or something, try cleaning it and heating it then powering it up again
irony my old card is 970 gtx
Were you using regular WD-40 Multi-Use or WD-40 Specialist Contact Cleaner
regular wd-40, but i remembered it wasnt going to help as much and waste a waste because i was dealing with sugar syrup so i went for water
Have you experienced a gpu that cause the pc to not start. Gpu spins for 0.2 seconds and then stop and it does not startup. Is there any recommendation to do. Thank you for you help
Sounds like it's dead dead. Where it's shorting. Try a different a psu if anything or different gpu power cables. Other wise you are probably out of luck
@@TotalKommando it same with my GPU with coke damage
I don't know what's wrong with my card. My computer won't read it for some reason. All I remember is that I accidentally spilled not that much mountain dew on it and forgot to clean it. Now the mountain dew on the GPU is dried out. How do I like fix this lmao
what would you say your success rate is on doing these methods to fix the GPUs?
50/50 the gpus I wanted to work have worked. You can tell usually from their symptoms
My gpu is actually preventing my pc from posting. The hard drive wont even work. Boots right up with a diff gpu, so do you think this fix might work?
There is a chance, mostly depends on what type of problem the gpu is having, if it's out of warranty doesn't hurt to do this. If it's expensive, find a repair shop.
Can i use this methode for my dead gpu gtx 1060 year 2009 ?
I have hoarded a few older GPU's and need to clean them good but don't have a gallon of alcohol and wasn't sure about using water because of minerals? Glad I ran into this showing it's ok to do. Tech Yes city gives all his boards soap n water bath scubs too and uses "Multi Purpose spray" which I can't find in the US but WD-40 is the same? I wasn't 100% sure about that either! Cool. time for me to get to work thanks!
Water was because i was dealing with coke syrup lol but i gave it a proper blow away with my datavac
WD-40 was the wrong thing to use, I stopped it because it was pointless, oil against sugar.
Best to use contact cleaner similar to rubbing alcohol
i didnt explain that in the video
@@TotalKommando - Thanks for clarifying that. My cards have no damage from any spilled soda incidents so will try WD-40 anyway. I have 2 cards that are in pristine looking condition but I think they were used for mining and were run hot and I think they may need to have the bios checked and possibly reflashed to game bios again. They both show display and go to windows but one crashes to black screen and restarts the PC and the other has pink screen and artifacting.
I just got a Asus strix 970 power light fans spin then stop but no display I'm giving this ago
My RTX 2080ti stoped working after the Radiator started leaking on it. The fans on the graphic card do work but no lights. I’m not sure if I take it apart and clean it would it work again or not?
Yea its prob dead dead : |
Best chance is getting it to a repair store that knows what they are doing.
Best Good Luck
what if this gpu is coke cooled🤔🤔🤣
my gpu turns black whenever i run a game and the fans start spinning very fast is there a fix for this
Do what I did give it the heat
Treatment or send it to a repair shop
my 970 card started experiencing an issue where the pc will boot and function normally, but it will crash as soon as any graphics load is applied. Could heat treating it with a hairdryer ( i dont have a heat gun) potentially fix it?
If it's strong enough yes, just gotta keep it on for much longer, if it works, it may not last as long so you will have to do it again
Can you put the gpu board in water ?
my gpu is in good condition but when i play games or run bench mark it shows green spots on screen at 62 degree teprature and some times at 68degree
my friend says its expired
can i still fix this?
gpu is asus rog strix 1080ti
Expired isn't a term unless he is meming. Give this method a try and it should have a high chance of fixing. Just do the heat treatment. And make sure it's cleared of dust. You can use a paintbrush to dust off any dirt on the board. Throw on fresh paste and you are good to go.
Mine did not work heatgun it for 5 min going clockwise in the chip and my pc still doesn't detect the gpu :(
Then its probably fully dead.

@@kozuta8858 lol just wait, if you really want go grab an old card like a 970 or a 780 ti for cheap to hold you off until there is proper stock then sell those when you do get the 3080 without issues, or until amd announces their stuff
Do you know my card problem, my card was fine for 8 years but now it getting strange like window would open but gpu doesnt load even it driver disappear but sometime gpu get alive again and then when i try to play any game when it on loading the pc hang up for long or crash and restarted but then again same loop after that gpu is now dead and isnt responsing but when i try start pc again there is artifact seen around the window loading logo!!

Your card is dying, try heating it like i did, if that doesnt work then you are out of luck
That's wd40?
Yea
I would have thought that you would put that into an ultrasonic cleaner or something to clean it rather than the way that you actually did it.
Gotta do with what ya have :)
my card is showing display but drivers are crashing everytime i install them any solution??
Same issue in the video. Try the fix
Same issue.probably win10 or ur card is messed up.i did renew heat paste stil nothing now doing this heat up trick but i saw some little black spot on the board but no burning spots or something.i have asus r9 390 strix but i read that 300 series are messed up also amd self kill it with the drivers.most of them stop working anyway.Its time for a better card.
hey I have 2 gpus that have missing capacitors and resistors I was wondering if I can send them in. Do I have to pay?

What may be the issue with my 660ti. it posts but it doesnt show up as display driver in windows?
When its posting its using a basic display driver, when it goes into windows where it has the right driver it crashes. Which means your card is suffering from a similar issur in the video from prolongrd heat damage. Heat treatment method in this video should have a good chance of fixing that.
same with safe mode, you should be able to get into it since it wont load the nvidia driver
@@TotalKommando Thank you soo much. will try it today or 2morrow :D
What is the target temperature you're heating the chip to?
Around 200c
How many time heat a vga??
I got screwed on a used GPU. Never again! Anyway, it plays some games ut more demanding games I get snowflakes, big colorful square blocks, or portions if the screen just blacked out. Everything else works such as you tube, video conferencing etc. So with games it's an issue. Should I go this route to fix it?
it sounds like a memory issue, if its a recent gpu like a 10th series you might be able to still RMA it, otherwise if its an older card it doesnt hurt to give this method a try, let me know how it goes
This same thing happened to me except the gpu doesn’t display anything
@@TotalKommando Its a Asus 2070. When it works it's great. The funny thing is I've died in some stages and when I come back the graphics are normal. Crazy!
What’s the WD-40 for
Can you just bake it a low heat in the oven?
You could, but you got a higher chance of damaging it, since you have no control. Focused heat yeilds longer lasting results in my experience if it does work.
Are you Jayztwocents? xD
stupid question, why do you need to toast your PCB? I'm attempting to fix my coke damaged Asus 1080. I need to understand why to do it right, Please help!
In my case it most likey failed because of heat and not the coke. I would still do what I did to my card to your card. wash it clean it good. dry it well and then heat it how I did. Then try testing it. No point of doing 1 thing and not the other.
Do you have any video signal when you power on your PC?
@@TotalKommando I can see the computer try to boot with the GPU. Sometimes it shows no signal sometimes it shows light on the screen but still dark. Update: just torn it apart and cleaned it well. Gonna bake it and apply thermal paste to try.
Don't toast it. Use controlled heat with a heat gun
@@TotalKommando is there any other way? someone said you can use the kitchen oven at 375 F for 10 min or you have to use the heat gun?
Kitchen oven heats up everything which is not good, thats how you drop your chances but a lot by doing that, with the heatgun or a powerful hair dryer for a longer period will be much better since you can control and direct the heat to only the area you are targeting
I hope if this work you saved my money
Normal people water cool gpu
This person coke cooled gpu
OK but how does heating the gpu fix it
There is a link in the description about that by Louis Rossman, it has to do with micro bumps in the chip that develop overtime from too much heat
Hi, So today i was gaming and gpu temp were kinda hoy like 87c i have gigabyte turbo 1080 ti and pc shuted off. Then pc wont turn on until i removed gpu power cable then it worked bit there is no life signs on gpu no fan spin and nothing. Visually it doesnt have anything any smell or kinda like that. Please if u know something help me , i dont wanna throw my hardly collected money in water : (
Sounds like your gpu or cables or psu is shorting on those power rails, the moment you try to turn it on it willpower off.
@@TotalKommando yes and what should be a possible solution its gpu fault i tried on different pc same problem
@@darkstar8693 then sadly your gpu is prob toast : |
