Item: Galax nVidia GeForce GTX 970 EXOC SNIPER Edition 4GB GDDR5 256bit PCI-E 3.0 Desktop Graphics Card
Age: 2+ years (purchased from wootware on 25 April 2016)
Price: R2000
Warranty: Nope
Packaging: In the original box. I've misplaced the little red dust cover thingies.
Condition: Mediocre. I think the thermal throttling doesn't work well. Might just be my setup. See below.
Location: Midrand
Reason: Got a 1080
Shipping: Preferably not (idk how that works)
Collection: Sure
Link: Galax 97NQH6DNH8FL NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 EXOC SNIPER Edition 4GB GDDR5 256bit PCI-E 3.0 Desktop Graphics Card - Wootware
So when I would do a benchmark on this GPU it will run fine, but when both the CPU and GPU run at 100% together, the heat cannot dissipate (my box is not well ventilated)
At about 74 degrees, it will thermal cut. Making the screen lose signal for 1 sec.
When leaving the side panel open, it appears to solve the issue.
