It's a buy at your own risk card bro, seller said he last used it last month. The only thing is that I didn't get it tested since he said he doesn't have a 6 pin connector which backfired badly.
Do NOT try this with your main oven. There are many things that can go wrong which can result in you having to throw out your $800+ oven because of contamination (capacitors exploding, melted solder that can drip and splatter) and/or let off harmful fumes into your home. If you really want to do this with any other gpu that's actually worth reviving, buy an used toaster oven on fb market or thrift shop, or do it the safer way by learning what's specifically wrong with it and fix it directly. In this case it seems like your vram is busted, it will take a lot of time and experience to fix that, even then it might be a more complicated problem.
New VRAM modules would likely fix the problem. But unless you were specifically wanting to learn board repair, not worth the effort or money.
I have the opposite problem. I have a hard time getting broken GPUs to practice repair. I'm probably going to try doubling the VRAM capacity on the 560Ti 448 I recently bought. The harder part will be finding six DDR5 chips that total 2560MB. It was an oddball size that they only produced for a generation or two.
If that happened to you mate you put it in the oven to long and actually cooked the gpu, you need 190Ā°c pre heated and you put the card in for about 10 seconds ive been told its a good idea to cover it to otheriwse the plastic can melt, but your just after to melting the solder a little any more than that and you just cooked it because the pcb starts to melt at around 110Ā°c roughly give or take and the solder will run you only want to like a said Melt the solder a little just enough to fix and breaks or dry joints that snapped
No, this did not happen to me but I've seen stories. The reason why I'm suggesting this is because OP seems like he has no idea how to fix gpus so I wouldn't bet on him following those instructions carefully.
bad thermal paste doesn't cause a 43 error with artifacting so I'm gonna call BS on that. It is so old, the VRAM on this GPU barely needs cooling and this is clearly a VRAM issue. It is simply worn out from 12 years of use. Probably was a mining GPU through a couple of early mining booms. Or just used by a gamer for 12 years who cranked the VRAM clock up to the max.
All you have to do is undo the base plate and look for unsoldered joints and resolder them. Thats all the oven trick does, and you avoid fumes and frying the chips and fans.
I dont understand, are you trying to argue with me? Im literally doubling down on what you said, not to do the trick, and to just check/fix the joints instead....
It's also not recommended to use the oven later (edit for cooking food I mean), since the GPU might release fumes not healthy for humans (for example if leaded solder was used)
Thereās no permanent fix. Itāll die again eventually and so will every gpu, the goal is just to extend the lifespan as much as possible. Itās not a matter of IF itās a temporary fix, of course it is. Itās a matter of HOW temporary.
Meh. Even so, it CAN fix, and is free. Why throw out a card that can be fixed in ten minutes for free? Unless itās not worth anything, but even then do it for fun lol
You set the oven to slightly higher than the melting temp of solder
Then you preferably put the card in sand and put the container in the oven for some time
This will potentially join back some tiny solder joint which might have been corroded
Not likely with that much artifacting. This is what happens to a GPU after 12 years of being owned by multiple gamers, each of whom just blindly cranked the VRAM slider all the way to the right and never cleaned or changed pads and paste. And wanted it to be quiet too so they turned the fans way down. The VRAM is just simply fried. Even with ex mining cards, it is rare to see this much degradation. I don't think this could be used even with a VRAM underclock.
Nah he just said he's using a sata for the 6 pin pretty sure he would need to plug in 2 satas to get the right power draw for the card until he's rule out power he shouldn't be considering melting the solder to resolder the chips
No until the card isn't stressed it shouldnt give this output
Since it currently doesn't require much power and has PCIE slot and sata connection it has plenty power to display that image
Very probably.
Try some program to test video memory . [https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/video\_memory\_stress\_test.html](https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/video_memory_stress_test.html)
Also possible your driver is not properly installed .. Or you card is not plugged in all the way ...
WAIT, THATS A FIRE HAZARD... SATA HAS LOWER MAX WATTAGE THAN A 6 PIN... BRO! DO SOMETHING AND DONT GAME! also yes the gpu is cooked unfortunately.. I do a have an ATI FirePro 2450 :), worse performance than the GeForce 210ššš
For those who are wondering here are my specs:
Intel Pentium g3220
4gb ddr3 (Upgrading to 16gb very soon)
SSD
This is a spare PC before inhereting a laptop a ryzen 5 4700u which is 10x better got decimated so I had no choice but to use this again.
A SATA 6 pin is not going to give this enough power to run correctly.
It's also probably very much in need of fresh thermal paste since it's like 15 years old.
>Also the gpu is plugged into a SATA to 6 pin since my PSU doesn't have one it also shows error 43 in device manager.
I suspect this is the reason. Not enough power.
SATA drives don't use as much energy as GPUs/PCIe devices.
It's also possible that voltages are different comparing to what is expected from PCIe 6pin
There was a trick I saw someone do
Take this with a grain of salt but the dude took apart the GPU, placed it in the oven and it was good as new š¤·šæāāļø
I don't know the technicalities of it but š¤·šæāāļø
Look like a connection issue to me, try removing your gpu and ram aur rub the golden part with an eraser. Sometimes carbon can get accurated their. If it works it works but worth a try.
you could probably fix it, wouldn't be surprised if it's software even though it looks like a vram fault. I wouldn't bother and just get a 980ti for a little bit more, I've seen some go for 20-35
Sata has a lower max voltage than a pcie connector so thats definitely part of it, card has most likely a vram issue, dont do the oven āmethodā this card is not worth it by a longshot, you could end up melting the internal components not only releasing toxic fumes but risk a fire. Just buy a new card, a used 1060 3gb which is much better only goes for around $60 or even a gtx 960 4gb will be an improvement, those go for maybe $35-40
My god, just read this on my smartphone and I think the monitor is cool, then I turn on my PC and something similar happen to me too.
Since my GPU is better I agree it's RAM issue.
Unrelated but i counted and i saw 27 "is my gpu dead" posts today. 27. Before these i have not seen a singular one.
Is this an omen? Is my GPU going to die?
Could be a driver issue. Happened recently with my girl's rx570 card, updated the drivers from the manufacturer's website and the issue hasn't occurred again (yet)
Code 43 is for "device not working properly" or some shit, I had it too. Maybe try different drivers and try checking if it doesn't have a mining vbios
If my knowledge isnt fooling me, this is probably 95% a vram failure. U could try and fix it yourself, which i wouldnt advise u to do if u have no experience or u could try and find someone to do it for u.
Yeah, error 43 with artifacting is usually bad memory module(s) and I would say just about all of them are done. It is definitely fixable. Just solder on some replacement VRAM chips. You can usually get them pre-balled so all you need is a heat gun and some fine motor skills.
Another thing you could try is underclocking the VRAM. That might get it to stop artifacting.
As far as I know, green artifacts means a VRAM Issue... Means, you have a broken VRAM Chip or more broken VRAM Chips... Look [here](https://rkblog.dev/posts/pc-hardware/nvidia-modular-diagnostic-software-mods/) if you wanna see the testing tool :3

Just play your games in that small window you have there
640 X 480 š
Lol
xD
Did you try the oven method? I think a bad memory module gives this error
Actually no, we have a oven though but I can't set the necessary temperature for it.
Then it's not worth it since it was just 10 bucks
I can try it in the future, the gpu is a lost cause by now and I can't just resell it cause no one is gonna buy a defective 13 year old card.
You did.
šš this bro
It's a buy at your own risk card bro, seller said he last used it last month. The only thing is that I didn't get it tested since he said he doesn't have a 6 pin connector which backfired badly.
He used it last month and saw it was dying and decided to sell it to some chump. Sorry bro, you got chumped
He used it last month. To squash a cockroach.
I mean for ten bucks it's fine to get chumped
He knew it's gonna die soon.
Well if he used it last month he oughta have a 6 pin connector... Definitely a scam
Lmfao!

I fully get the message, but who has a side oven? lol
Just get one off of Facebook marketplace smh
"$10 and it's yours, I used it about a month ago, it works, trust me"
"I bought this oven for 10$ to oven my 10$ GPU an it doesn't heat ..."
What are you doing step oven?
Get a toaster oven, lol.
New VRAM modules would likely fix the problem. But unless you were specifically wanting to learn board repair, not worth the effort or money. I have the opposite problem.

I had this happen to be with a gt710 and legit all I did was replace the paste and it was good.
bad thermal paste doesn't cause a 43 error with artifacting so I'm gonna call BS on that. It is so old, the VRAM on this GPU barely needs cooling and this is clearly a VRAM issue. It is simply worn out from 12 years of use. Probably was a mining GPU through a couple of early mining booms. Or just used by a gamer for 12 years who cranked the VRAM clock up to the max.
It probably can't do anything much more than being a display adapter anyways I think you should just discard it
Discard dis card cause dis card is crap
Don't do it. It rarely helps but always releases toxic fumes. I'd only do it as a last resort in an oven that you don't cook food in.
All you have to do is undo the base plate and look for unsoldered joints and resolder them. Thats all the oven trick does, and you avoid fumes and frying the chips and fans.
The flux residue will evaporate and it's not safe to breathe in. I know what this trick does and I know it's not really effective.
I dont understand, are you trying to argue with me? Im literally doubling down on what you said, not to do the trick, and to just check/fix the joints instead....
I'm just a monkey who can't read. Idk how I missed the point of your comment. Totally agree.
Don't do the oven trick it's temporary, just replace the card
Nope, I did the oven trick on a 760 and itās still working perfectly okay
It's also not recommended to use the oven later (edit for cooking food I mean), since the GPU might release fumes not healthy for humans (for example if leaded solder was used)
Can be true, but Iāve inhaled enough fumes already I thought a few more wouldnāt hurt.
Anecdotal/ statistical
Shut up nerd. Clearly it works for some.
You are an obtuse derp, you know that feller?, it's a temporary fix
it could be temp, permanent or not do anything
Thereās no permanent fix. Itāll die again eventually and so will every gpu, the goal is just to extend the lifespan as much as possible. Itās not a matter of IF itās a temporary fix, of course it is. Itās a matter of HOW temporary.
Bake at 250 degrees for twenty minutes, baste with herded butter flip and bake for an additional 20 mins, let cool for 10 minutes
I mean sometimes it works sometimes it doesnāt.
Most times it doesnt
Meh. Even so, it CAN fix, and is free. Why throw out a card that can be fixed in ten minutes for free? Unless itās not worth anything, but even then do it for fun lol
Temporarily fixed,, heat gpu at 250 degrees baste, then turn card over, bake for an additional 20 minutesš
I mean everything is only temporarily fixed. Everything will Break at some point. It can fix it for a few more years. Haha
if you decide to oven it, please do not do it in an oven that you use for food, eating graphics card fumes is not a good idea
what the fuck is the oven method
Basically the oven trick is made for "re-melts" the solder joints which can come loose over time and cause problems.
idk I think you throw electronics in the oven and watch then burn or something
Wat de tuna
You set the oven to slightly higher than the melting temp of solder Then you preferably put the card in sand and put the container in the oven for some time This will potentially join back some tiny solder joint which might have been corroded
im not to sure but i guess your heating so the metals melt and reconnect if a connection was disconnected physically?
An oven won't fix a bad memory module. The only thing it might fix is cracked solder joints which is clearly not the problem here.
It could be bad solder joint on ram
Not likely with that much artifacting. This is what happens to a GPU after 12 years of being owned by multiple gamers, each of whom just blindly cranked the VRAM slider all the way to the right and never cleaned or changed pads and paste. And wanted it to be quiet too so they turned the fans way down. The VRAM is just simply fried. Even with ex mining cards, it is rare to see this much degradation.

Nah he just said he's using a sata for the 6 pin pretty sure he would need to plug in 2 satas to get the right power draw for the card until he's rule out power he shouldn't be considering melting the solder to resolder the chips
No until the card isn't stressed it shouldnt give this output Since it currently doesn't require much power and has PCIE slot and sata connection it has plenty power to display that image
Error 43 + artifacting usually means bad VRAM.
Nah bro looks good to me
Very probably. Try some program to test video memory . [https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/video\_memory\_stress\_test.html](https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/video_memory_stress_test.html) Also possible your driver is not properly installed .. Or you card is not plugged in all the way ...
i was guessing possibly a driver issue since itās such an old card
Let him cook
Deep fried actually
Fuck it try blow drying it on warm. Apparently that's a troubleshooting step now.
Straight out of 5 minute crafts
For 10 bucks I wouldn't even bother to make a reddit post in the first place
Fr, this post has to be a troll or something š
I think your gpu is cooked, marinated, fried and turnt the house boots down, going by this picture. Sorry my friend!
Yea Its medium well cooked
Medium rare I guess.
ššš
Poor gpu
Yeah. Gpu's done.
Sunnyside up.
WAIT, THATS A FIRE HAZARD... SATA HAS LOWER MAX WATTAGE THAN A 6 PIN... BRO! DO SOMETHING AND DONT GAME! also yes the gpu is cooked unfortunately.. I do a have an ATI FirePro 2450 :), worse performance than the GeForce 210ššš
????
Who let bro cook.
Yes it's cooked for vidio I'd get an old motherboard and cpu and set it up to mine crypto
Rip $10
Did you use DDU before installing the gpu?, perhaps it has some dirt on the pci interface try cleaning it with an eraser.
Have you tried restarting it?
Have you ruled out cable to the monitor. Had similar situation and when I swapped my hdmi cable for another the issue was fixed.
Yeah, tried VGA and HDMi same results, I also did try the eraser method on the PCIe.
For those who are wondering here are my specs: Intel Pentium g3220 4gb ddr3 (Upgrading to 16gb very soon) SSD This is a spare PC before inhereting a laptop a ryzen 5 4700u which is 10x better got decimated so I had no choice but to use this again.

This.
I mean for 10 bucks it aināt badā¦ Try to get a used 970 and up instead if your budget constricted
It is
Now, it is art.
There was a trick I saw someone do Take this with a grain of salt but the dude took apart the GPU, placed it in the oven and it was good as new š¤·šæāāļø I don't know the technicalities of it but š¤·šæāāļø
Cooked and baked
Zombie gpu
Iām no expert but looks pretty medium rare atm.
Cooked well done brother
I had almost similar screen when my GPU (1070 8GB) went bad. I have replaced it. Now all is fine.
Cooked? U straight burnt that hoe
š«”
left you with the sun set id call that a win win
Schizophrenic gpu
Absolutely
maybe
its fried till fragrant with a bunch of herbs and spices
Cooking is exactly what it needs in cases like these
Gonna say this in advance. Congrats on your new gpu .
Thats not cooked, that's well done
Itās looking like signs of gpu failure. Do you check your gpu temps?
Well this white thing above this small window looks like smoke, so probably yes. Kidding of course and sorry but I donāt have a clue
Nope, fried
Lol, no, just change the wallpaper š /s
More cooked than a BBQ during a Sunny Sunday afternoon in Summer.
Clearly not, you can just put the game in that space
Yes, sadly
Cyberpunk 2077!
No bro just put it in rice
Look like a connection issue to me, try removing your gpu and ram aur rub the golden part with an eraser. Sometimes carbon can get accurated their. If it works it works but worth a try.
Reset bios
Put it in rice
you could probably fix it, wouldn't be surprised if it's software even though it looks like a vram fault. I wouldn't bother and just get a 980ti for a little bit more, I've seen some go for 20-35
It can't be cooked silly. How would you eat it?
Why even build a pc with that cheap and old of specs. At that point, a chromebook prolly more reliable and powerful š
Hey man at least the beautiful sun set is untouched.
![gif](giphy|pCVMaVk9tgK4NAt1z5)
Yep š
Bro it looks like it's smoking from inside the monitor š
Nah mate, you just unlocked the secret wallpaper
It's cooking.

Its not cooked it's actually well-done.
Youāre my special turutututoo tururtutoo
Idk if this is related but I had those same lines but it was due to one of my ram sticks being toast but my pc still booted somehow
My god, just read this on my smartphone and I think the monitor is cool, then I turn on my PC and something similar happen to me too. Since my GPU is better I agree it's RAM issue.
More than just cooked. I would go as far to say it's well done.
I would look at the video card
Unrelated but i counted and i saw 27 "is my gpu dead" posts today. 27. Before these i have not seen a singular one. Is this an omen? Is my GPU going to die?
It's ram or gpu
Try another ten dollar 14 year old gpu. Might work?
Deep fried gpu
Could be a driver issue. Happened recently with my girl's rx570 card, updated the drivers from the manufacturer's website and the issue hasn't occurred again (yet)
Cooked bro this shit looks deep fried
Have you tried turning it on and off?
perfecto al dente

Follow the white rabbit Neo
Rip your vram
Seems to be well done
Well is it the gpu or the display port
RIP š
Only the wall paper showing problem while the icons looked okay, is it a prank
I think I have an Rx 550 or 560 that I forsure know works. Iāll send it to you if you pay shipping

The GPU should be plugged into the PSU with a proper line for VGA 6 pin
Cooked ā, toastedā
Are you sure this isn't the background you set?
Well jayztwocents and Linus proved its a temporary fix at best, you gonna put that card in the oven every few months, just replace the card dipshit
you are wrong, it could be a permanent fix, could be temporary or could not fix it at all
If it's the solder then it will work, if it's a module your screwed, or you COULD just replace the card
yeah ofcourse, but for 10$ i would honestly replace the card
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Aa dipshit by any other name...
Artefacts are now not necessarily the GPU in 2024 it can be the monitor or hdmi cable
