So this is just a why not ask thread. I was gifted a gpu from my brother's friend and he said it worksbut not like its suppose to. So i pop it in and it does show a an image, but its runnig C.O.D. at on 20fps in 1080p. This is a 2080 ti. I should be getting better than this, so I understood what he meant by it. I used evga presicion and it says the gpu is stuck at 300 mhz with a 369% power limit.
 
So what i'm asking is, I'm pretty sure its not covered, but are gifted gpu able to be fixed? And how would i go about doing this?

    The card should still have warranty. You'll just need to speak with evga support about it... https://www.evga.com/about/contactus/

    369% power limit?

    Did the person that gave it to you try modifying the power limit by using liquid metal on the shunt resistors?

    I am wondering if they tried to use a custom bios or something. Of course maybe it's just got some other issue.

    Use an Associates Code & SAVE 5% - 10% on your purchase. Just click on the associates banner to save, or enter the associates code at checkout on your next purchase. If you choose to use my code I want to personally say "Thank You" for using it.
