The repair guy said the thermal sensor on my gtx 970 failed, which caused the fans to not spin fast enough.
Is this horseshit? Was he just wasting my money?
You bought a 970. You already wasted money.

What;s wrong with it?
>>57849068
Everything..
Ayymd is better.
>>57849032
Yes because the fans on these cards are based on GPU usage and not temp.
>>57849068
3.5 lmao
>>57849068
The thermal sensor, ofc
Ooo, and...
.5 gb of horribly slow VRAM
Coil whine
Crippling performance
Horrible DX 12 support
Goes over the advertised power draw
Ect.

>Not using SpeedFan and keeping your GPU fan at 2500 RPM always
People commenting on 970s when they have shittier cards themselves.
You really are some dumb fuckwits.

Actually no, Prove me wrong

"make myself feel better" - I have 2 1080s, why the fuck would I need to do that?

>buy 970
>1070 comes out barely half a year later
At least I have a secondary rig to relegate it to, but fuck me, had I resisted, I could have bought Volta next year to rape 1440p@144Hz and put the 1070 in the old rig.

Lucky you bought a 1070 as volta is going to be another huge shitty letdown like the 480 was.
