Think mining in general is more stressful then gaming, by that analogy it should game just fine just revert them to original BIOS, also check fans...gamers should be fine
complete opposite. miners tend to undervolt and underclock, not using full potential of card. gamers damage gpus by overvolt and overclocking stressing all the components. if theres a gpu that's more likely to fail, it will be one used by a gamer, not a miner. thats why I love buying gpus used for mining, they've never really been stressed very hard.
+1 the most of actually games get more stress to the card than any miner software, although it is true that mining usually implies more hours of effective use...the eternal dilema
Sincerily I think that the method is pass an stress test check the fans and change the thermal paste, but you can download a free game like Fortnite and try with the auto config for video.
I've been with tradeogre for a long time without problems but we have to admit that all this case is strange. Let's wait and see if anyone else has information about this or similar cases.
