Asus rog 1660 super problem

[Alan York]

Hi all, I'm new here, I have a Asus rog 1660 super with no display..
I set it up in my pc and booted the system up, all was well for 30 seconds then I went to no display, after investigating one of my power cables were leaning on one of the fans and had stopped it turning,
Now no matter what I try I get no display, on power up both fans spin ( one gets a little warm) power light is on but no display,
Would any one know of any repair company's etc I could send it to?
Thanks

I have tried several, along with 3 x different PSU, all 550 to 750w, thanks for the suggestion

Hi alan whats the rest of your spec?

Could be worth a mobo bios update to see if that helps

One stop computers might be able to test it for you on london road in stoke

Hi, we have 4 pcs in the house and it's the same in all systems, I will give them a call and see if they can help.
Thanks

Just to check, do you have your display cables plugged into your GPU or your motherboard?

 

[Alan York]

Have tried both on all pcs, thanks for stopping by

Have you tried using a different GPU or integrated graphics? So you can see if the issues is with the 1660 or with something else in the PC? It sounds like your mb isn't posting properly.

I see, first you should make sure that all of the PC's drivers are up to date, make sure windows is up to date and get all of the current Nvidia drivers. Make sure that the power supply cables are properly pushed into the GPU, as it is possible it isn't getting enough power. What kind of PSU do you have?
If these things do not work, the GPU may be broken in some way, so get in contact with whoever you bought the card from, or get in contact with ASUS themselves.

Could the fan have caused the gpu to get some sort of power surge possibly killing it?

I think you have pretty much done enough to prove the GPU is knackered.

Its either RMA time or buy a new GPU. Taking the card to a local shop will just cost you money for nothing. It needs a proper electronic diagnostic which will probably cost more than the card is worth for them to tell you it will cost more than a new GPU to repair.

While that would normally be true, in today's GPU market, a new 1660 Super can go for £400-500 in some cases. Anything higher than that will likely be even more, so it's worth trying to get the card fixed before scrapping it. Hopefully it's just a minor issue that can be easily solved. If it was a PSU power surge, that could be a significant problem. Hopefully you still have warranty, so call up/email whoever you bought the card from or go straight to ASUS.

Though that is true with regards to pricing its rare you can get a GPU card fixed these days by a third party successfully. If we knew where this could be done I`m pretty sure it would be well known on here and many would be sending their cards to such a place.

Saying that 3060's and 3060ti's are now being made available by OCUK for around that price bracket.
