Tanner1234Tanner1234My GPU was working fine 5/13/2022 no updates or changes prior to today 5/14/2022. (Has been working great since purchase 0 issues 7/15/2021)This morning I turned on my machine and the GPU had a strange high fan speed at start up with no display output (DisplayPort/HDMI).I have never OC or changed any settings within bios or any 3rd party applications. I ISO tested my machine thoroughly my MOBO - Asus Tuf Gaming B550 plus wifi is showing QLED code VGA code (white light).I tried in both available PCIE 16x lanes, same results.I have a my old GPU EVGA 1080ti that I swapped out and it boots no problems with display for HDMI and DP.Also, i noticed when I pulled out the 3080ti of my case I noticed a small clump of dried thermal paste fall out of the card. about the size of a piece of rice. Could be un-related since the card is stock and from the manufacture, however I thought I would mention this. I have tried other PSU cables and minimum config with ram cpu gpu no luck on the display working with the 3080ti. My mobo is for AMD so no IG, I even tried manually setting my PCIE16x to Gen 4 with my 1080ti plugged in but that did not fix the issue with the 3080ti either. I feel the next step is to RMA this one and replace.This is my support ticket I submitted. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Tanner1234Tanner1234checked already. Tried with 1 ram with both cards 2 and 4 with both cards. Only card that works is 1080ti with each config.
Nbpdc505If you did indeed see some thermal paste fall out of the card when removing, I would suggest opening it up and applying new paste to start.
talon951Yea thermal paste doesn't fall out. Lol. Don't take the card apart.
