Hey Folks
I've just recently came into a problem with the above GPU. Running OCCT when I ran a GPU stress test it would just auto shut off my PC and restart it. Put it into a PC repair and they said the GPU is at fault, so i've bought a new 4080 Super, BUT I don't want to just chuck the old GPU away as it worked fine for gaming up until it used about 60% of max power.
An EVGA rep said to maybe try replacing the thermal pads and cleaning them.
Does anyone have any videos of how to do this? And where would I buy them from and what ones to buy?
Built my own PCs but this is a bit more than i've ever done so looking for some pointers.
Cheers
