Im building my wife a PC and now that my SLI is useless (for a few years now), I figured I’d give her my extra GPU.
I disabled the SLI in the control panel, powered down, popped the SLI and 2nd GPU out and gave my wifes pc the extra 1080. My PC started up fine, I booted up a game, and about 10 min in, the screen froze for about 10 seconds and then appeared to restart and now I have no video output. Did I brick my gpu? Any ideas on how to proceed?
I’m only panicking a lot.
Would that erase all my data?
Yes, it will. Don’t do that, it’s not good advice, it’s harmful.
Yes, wiping your drive would lose everything on there. Connect your drive to a different computer before wiping if you need to transfer files.
