After replacing the thermal paste and thermal pads in an unauthorized service, the RMA procedure in 99% does not work.
Using a multimeter, you need to check the fuses on the video card. Just because a fuse is bad doesn't mean it's the problem. You can solder a thin wire and test the video card, but usually the test of the video card is done using a laboratory power supply unit with a reduced current so as not to burn other elements in the event of a short circuit.
I use napkin to clean the thermal pads pieces. (Some thermal pad pieces is really hard to remove.)
I use toothbrush to remove all napkin pieces.
Then I use alchol to clean. I always change all pads on graphic cards. (Not only memory side.)
Normally, I m so carefull. But my litlle sweety 11-month-years old baby was crying. I was in a rush that graphic card.
I think there was a little piece napkin. I m not sure.
24 minutes ETHW mining was good. Then rig reboot itself and I saw that gpu has an error.
Maybe the napkin burnt and short circuit.
I clean the graphic card properley again. There is no burnt parts.
Maybe fuse protection. I think I can change the fuse or short circuit, it will work.
I know it s my fault. I want to fix it. I was used to repairing cell phones at the past. I have tools for it.
But i never repair graphic card. By the way, This graphic card has two pcie power socket.
First one is for PCIE socklet 1, Second one is for PCIE socket 2.
Third one is for report a problem. But what problem ? Shor circuit ?
How could I learn which ones are fuse ?
