Soldato
Right so long story short, My PC was, or still is partially, completely soaked in vape juice.
This is after years of vaping (and some smoking also).
So what happened today is my screen went green entirely. Feels like the GPU is acting up.
I cleaned it as best i could, no more dripping juice inside the case etc.
It worked fine again, and i was hopeful, unfortunately, just gaming now my screen went white and it could not turn on. Error code on my Maximus VIII was B2, which is either the ram or the GPU according to google.
I have removed the 1080, as it would not start up again.
I guess everything seems to be fine with the card outside. I will see if that is true the rest of tonight and tomorrow before trying to put it back in.
My main question is, if the fault is e-liquid all over the GPU, if i were to disassemble it, clean it with alcohol etc and put it back together, will it be fine, or is it a case of when its broken its done and there is no going back?
The next question is, if i consider the original 1080 to be overpowered, what GPU would you recommend?
