so i upgraded from a 4060 ti to a 4070 ti super and it worked for almost a whole week but now every now and then the pc fans go on full blast(including the graphics card), and the monitor gets no video output, but windows is still open i was able to unpause and pause a youtube video.
#Graphics card issue

ping me when you give me possible answers

@autumn junco You can try DDU, but it shouldn't be necessary to do from that change. Fans going to max and the screen going black is classic GPU crashing.

i am betting hardware issue

the brand matters just about as much as the wattage
if it's some random, unreputable brand it may not handle power spikes very well (or at all) and shut down your pc

What do you mean brand, Corsair madd HORRIBLE HORRIBLE PSUs
Same with most others
Unless your a billionaire or something your bot buying a brand
lime coyote
most power supplies that are horrible to the point of being dangerous like that are either old or have been recalled
lime coyote
whereas some random chinese brand with no trace of existence on the entire internet are more likely to do something like that
lime coyote
you're just arguing over semantics here
same as "erm ACKSHYUALLY it's YOU'RE and not YOUR"
plucky rapids
No
lime coyote
i also didn't state that you would "buy a brand"
lime coyote
don't know that company so i wouldn't bet that they're of amazing quality
plucky rapids
Or abko
lime coyote
same
plucky rapids

A tier

ok

While others are f
lime coyote
ok

Aka product not brand is what matters
lime coyote
indeed
but an overarching generalization that is usually right is that name brands are popular for a reason, that they make good power supplies
plucky rapids
No
lime coyote
if they make an absolute piece of shit and then recall it every once in a while, they're still a reliable brand
lime coyote
if i buy a corsair power supply right now i can almost guarantee that it'll be totally fine for years past it's warranty, same with silverstone or other brands.
if i buy an "abko" or "1st player" power supply, no one knows who they are, i can google if their power supplies are good and if they're good then sure, buy them, but i won't know right as i hear the name of the company that it's most likely a good power supply
lime coyote
Like Corsair
google also works
just google the model and if it's shit you don't buy it
plucky rapids
AKA why asked him what model it was
lime coyote
but if it's a corsair power supply from the last few years i can almost guarantee that it's good enough
lime coyote
"first player power supplies are A tier"
that's an awful lot of E and F tier right there
plucky rapids
that's an awful lot of E and F tier right there
And a there?
