GTX TITAN Black Issue

[Bumble-B]

as said, i got the card from a friend, because it was broken... should try, if i could get it to run anyhow....

i flashed this: https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/165809/Palit.GTXTitanBlack.6144.140207.rom

Can you test with a a higher wattage PSU?

doesn't have one...

Was the flash successful or did it throw up a fail error, obviously I know its still not working but I'm trying to ascertain if you still have the original bios on the card or the one you tried to flash. What did your friend tell you about the card, was it just used for gaming and this happened one day?

It is calling for 600 watts minimum but im gonna look at the oem

 

[Bumble-B]

the flash was succesful.

i think he used it for gaming... but i'm not certain.

the crash happend, when we updated from win7 to win10

Do you have the original bios?

By the way is this card from nvidia directly or a 3rd party?

GPU is DYING... (code 43)

 

[Bumble-B]

i've got a second 450W PSU...
should i try to run the graphics card on one PSU and the mainboard on another PSU???

or should i try a newer driver on win7??

all windows 7 updates and intel chipset drivers are installed now...

no i don't have the original bios anymore... or wait... i made a bios backup with gpu-z and uploaded it... somewhere it could be...
i think the card is directly from nvidia. it seems to be a founders edition

what means:

GPU power limit
Target: 250.0 W
Limit: 265.0 W

Kepler Titans have a history of dying cores.
There's a yt channel where a guy repairs gpus,says he gets a lot of those cards from people who buy them cheap thinking they can fix them,but each turns out to have a bad gpu.

 

[Bumble-B]

tried to install 430.39 on win7.... run into a BSOD

 

[HUSKIE]

because it was broken

So if it's knackered and broken. This will you end up to waste your time trying to fix.

ok... i think i will bury this case... or is there a little chance, that it just depends on the PSU??

PSU never give an code 43 it's GPU itself problem.

You have bad vram or worst chip itself

It will if the GPU isn't getting enough power. I've seen it. Still, it should at least make it to idle clocks, so I'd say card is toast.

450 wont be enough just like 530 wont, 600 and up, being fsp Id say 600 and higher for sure.

Please take pictures of the card front, back, pci plate and all white stickers on the back of the card and even on the heatsink if any and post them here.

there is two in the database with exactly the same bios version number.

Bad, this is amazing card.
Still useful in all games on 1080p resolution.
I sold GTX780Ti K|NGP|N before 6 months, that's same full chip as TITAN Black, not crippled craps as companies sell today for 1200-1800$.
Mine GK110 was highly overclocked, far faster than TITAN Black but it was faster than GTX1060.
We talk about very useful chip and today, enough video memory, etc...

I would open, clean, test all capacitors and smd capacitors, controllers, regulators with multimetar, remove paste, remove pads, heat chip with heat gun if need, install in PC and again until she start to work.
Than I would install last driver for Kepler generation before Maxwell show up and never uninstall him or change him.

In that period NVIDIA is forced to give same number of CUDA cores as for professional cards only to pull 999$.
Today people could buy RTX2080, 170W GPU for that price. Whole level below. How people allow them that, I don't complain on NVIDIA any more, customers are culprits.
They could drop price on 500$ for 3 years if decide to behave rational and lucid.

bios can't HELP if hardware problem. To OP don't try to reflow or put it on oven it won't help

 

[Vlada011]

On your GPU-Z show Subvendor NVIDIA.
No memory size, boost clock is empty.
You have older platform with Gen 2 PCI-E x16?

Did you tried to download first driver for TITAN Black and update him through Device Manager.
Extract driver package and update only driver without PhysX, Experience, HD Audio....

 

[Bumble-B]

same issue on win7... i could try to install all win7 updates and drivers

just graphics driver, fresh install

Ok im gonna start looking

1 thing, pull the card clean the pcie edge pins make sure no residue/dust/sticky is on them.

Dust the pcie slot on the motherboard.

Ok put one of these 2 final bios in, get a 600 Watt psu somewhere. If it still fails try another machine, if you still have a code 43 in that other machine trash it.

i will not try anything anymore...

Told you it's time wasting.

I tried once but never happen again. I baked the gtx 780ti for about 20 minutes I pushed the heat to the GPU then PCIE connector melted tried to replace and it's working( 2015 ) the GPU still working up to now. I spent 1 day for the software.

 

[Caring1]

At least it will look good on display.
