Maybe the liquid or gas in the heat pipes is permeated although that would not make sense because why would there be a gas or a liquid with a temperature range that lets it permeate at a temperature where graphics cards would work at. I am not sure if I should ask them to get a new heat sink because it does not make sense that it is unusable just because the color has changed and that heat sinks get damaged from running at high temperatures. I told them to keep as it is for the time being. I asked what was wrong with it and they said that it had ran at high temperatures and has changed color. A day later they called me telling that the heat sink is damaged and needs replacing. But in benchmarking I can see artifacts, so I keep my OC at +700 even though I could potentially get some extra MH.”ġ2:12 - Andrewz Ravenz: “I took my reference R9 290X to a computer shop for changing the fan, thermal pads and thermal paste. I can overclock it with +1000 and it doesn't crash when mining. I'm asking this because for example, I have a MSI 1060 3GB with Samsung memory. 02:15 – Notwist: Burke quick question: can undervolting a GPU hurt the card in any way? Particularly if, during testing, you undervolt too far and it gets unstable?”Ġ4:54 – PimpThySky: “#askgn-questions Why did Nvidia decide to go 20xx instead of 11xx like a lot of people were saying? Thx for great content.”Ġ5:56 – Galiu: “#askgn-questions Burke Is it possible to damage/degrade a GPU more than in a normal use case (base clocks) JUST BY overclocking the memory too high? No overvoltage, power limit would be under 70 and good temps (55-60c).
