theodrim: Thank you for the diagram, if this turns out to be the cause of the problem I hope you will help me reach the solution. I'll upload a picture.
leonix007: I will upload a picture of a fully working GPU next to mine with the 8-pin power cable plugged in. Maybe that will help people tell the difference.
m.vina: Its not just the lights. The lights became dim after it stopped working. I assure you, if it was still mining I wouldnt have made a big deal out of it.
Dotem: I have tried it under 3different motherboards. Im curious now, because if youve burned vga cables I think it would be possible to burn the port.
Ciscopro2000: I have tried it directly on a pci-e x16 slot and a good 8-pin power connector. I have tried multiple risers as well, and have narrowed it down to the GPU.
