Plug in, run beside the igp or another card, get a gpu-z screenshot

i managed to enter window and flash backup bios
heres my curent bios

it get random blackscreen after 10-20meniute gaming
temp is normal i suposed theres no overheat issue, gpu 57c, mem 60c

also i realize that the power consumtion never goes above 166w, maybe it got limited somehow

Top 3 are pulse files, ensure you select the ones with Samsung HBM2.

What is your monitor and power supply you are using?

okey thx i will try those bios and let you guys know the result asap

Sounds like psu not up to snuff. Reduce power settings and try and run like that. Probably needs a good 650-700w depending on your config.

See my last post too.

Its possible you have the unmolded gpu chip where hbm and die are different heights.

i try booth tv/monitor, and my psu model system u9, its in the case i cant open it hehe

 

[eidairaman1]

Shut the rig down, open the case and get a picture of the label from the psu, model number is imperitive.

I know what card you have already...

@INSTG8R what do you think?

@INSTG8R what do you think?

PSU looks capable. Old drivers in the GPUZ shot I don’t care much for. Everything else looks pretty normal
edit: 500W May be pushing it actually. I easily push over 300W alone on my V64

Supposedly it is CWT and they are Middle Ground compared to Seasonic or Superflower by design.

I know they call for 650W and that is a cheap psu.

guys it getring worse, now this card even cant stand window mode, i try uninstall all driver, no playing game, blackscreen more frequently, something is wrong, i alr claim for refund ticket, thx for the help btw

Get a 750 watt psu that is Seasonic or Super Flower Based so you dont need to worry about it...

okey will consider it, i was abt pay for new psu yes hehe, just wondering why this card beat my psu, i think model of gigabyte oc do suck more power than this pulse, however having an pwerfull psu is importnant too yes, i will have spare of new psu 750w at minimum soon thx for the tips

If you try with -20% power limit in drivers and you have no problem gaming with that setting, it clearly is a PSU problem. If not, maybe the mining has made some damage on the GPU.

 

[damric]

Capacitors wear out. But is it the ones on the card or the psu? Mining card, so it could have been run hard and hot, but how old is the psu? Cheap CWT platforms used caps that could easily wear out in 2 years , like on the oldest Corsair CX models. Definitely try cutting back the power on the card. Don't those Vega cards have a power saving BIOS and a gaming BIOS switch?

my psu almost been an year+, the card itself isnt hot, temp barely hit 65c, and i touch the plate isnt hot, and yes having fual bios, but both having same problem hehe

under minus -20 powerlimit still got the same problem, anyway i realize that this card always running on 2nd display, could it be the culprit? how can i connect as primary discrete? its only have single hdmi slot, couldnt found other than displayport,, i ordering spare of 1000w psu, hope it delivery soon tonmorow

i underclock half of stock clock, it seems quite stable, alr passed 20minute

also powerlimit minus 40

If new 1000w psu does not make it work, then I think it's a bad card then. If you can return it, awesome. If not, well it's either the dielectric in the capacitors has all evaporated or maybe even solder joint has gone bad and needs reflowed.

sadly my backup psu doesnt solve the problem, i alr return the card this evening, still curious what may cause the problem, but ive no hoice becouse the deadline of refund only x2 24hours hehe
anyway i pay for used thermaltake smart 1000watt

Used PSU's... I like my second hand parts as much as you but a PSU? Not in my baddest dreams. Its going to be hell on earth to troubleshoot, you don't know how reliable it is or how its been used.

i make a quick decision, all becouse im still curious abt this card, ofcourse i also doubt this used psu, cant wait till the brand new one, it took 1-2days arived, so i pay this from a friend, just for quick test, its cheap btw, only $20, so yeah just call it a days
