Help /g/, my graphic card, a MSI GTX670 Power Edition OC, shat itself out of the blue and stopped outputting video. When I rebooted it only worked at 800x600 resolution. I removed the drivers through DDU and reinstalled them, but it didn't solve the problem. The device manager shows the error 43 for the GPU.
Is there something else, software side, that I can do to fix this problem?

Try it on some other pc before doing anything.

Error 43 is usually a hardware error.
It's fucked.
Try cleaning it out with a isopropyl alcohol bath and replacing the thermal paste.
If that doesn't works you can try baking it.

The only friend I know with a PC that allows such operation is out of town.

Well, shit. I was actually thinking about changing thermal paste before this happened, but I don't think it makes any difference if the hardware is fucked. There's also the PSU that every now and then makes a strange ticking noise: could it be that it's not supplying enough power through the two six pins cables?
