Hi all.

I Bought a Palit 2080ti GamingPro OC end of October 18, been running ok until new years eve.

When booting the PC i was getting a blank screen and monitor going to sleep after the windows 10 logo, left it for a bit and came back it seemed to work.

Ran furmark on it with no issues, stopped furmark and after a few mins the screen started getting artifacts on it... oh no thought i had a bad 2080ti card maybe?

Took the card to work with me today, in the works rig I cant get it to fail.. the works rig is only some amd 8150 and a 1200w silverstone strider psu.

The PSU in my pc is the Corsair HX850i.. this psu is less than a year old. I have read online about Single/Multi rail and set it to Single Rail however I still get artifacts pretty much soon as I get to the login screen.

I have ran my PC on the igpu and ran memtest86, all is ok, used DDU to clean drivers, still the artifacting issue persists.

One note, I am running the GPU using a single cable that had dual 8 pin connectors.. Should I use 2 sets of cables to each port on the card? (doesnt running single rail mode provide enough power from 1 cable anyway) ??

Im struggling no as I cant get the card to fail in another system.. Do I chance a new PSU ? Is the card a faulty one? Motherboard issues..

Advice welcome thank you
 
Hi all thanks for the replies

As I said the works rig, which is in open air on the wall for testing ran fine, I took the card off and left it on the side and nipped out. Came back and tried it again in the offending system and this time soon as I got to the W10 logon screen it artifacted.

So ruled out a heat issue straight away. Cant try 2 seperate cables to it until tonight, but I did try the works PSU on my PC and low and behold the machine got to the desktop fine with no artifacts. Ran superposition on it and seems ok for now, I ran superposition on it this morning from cold and it killed it straight away.

No overclocking on the GPU

Either my PSU needs both rails connecting seperate the the card or the PSU is defective..

I will update tonight
