    Graphic card HELP?!!!

    Greetings.
    I need some info, help, direction to go, about Graphics cards. I have a Powercolor R9-270x 4gb. It works on basic windows 7 vga driver but not on any AMD driver( black screen on win boot with system crash) I have reinstalled win 7 and ran DDU also. I have used original AMD driver that worked from 2013 to 2018,same result. Replacement card works fine and this card fails on two other PC'S. I have checked web sites and find zilch. Most sites say reflowing or reballing GPU will fix this problem (MAYBE). I would like to learn more about how these cards function or what voltages and resistances should be found on the other devices on this board. Is anyone recording V&R readings of known working cards? (Not Benchmark results). The Mosfets (datasheet below) are 6mm PQFN and those are the last thing I want to remove. With newer gaming cards running $700.00 and up; I hope they become as repairable as TV's.

    PS. How to tell whether cap is Dry Alum electrolytic or Alum Poly ??

    CORRECTION: Caps in photo are 820 at 2.5volts

      Before reflowing the gpu i would replace the caps and see what it does. They are cheap and if it doesnt work you could always put the old ones back.
      Could be one cap that is failing

        Razer Blade 15 Advanced (RZ209-033) graphic card issue
        by shybear
        hi,
        this laptop works but temperature rise too much. I dismounted mb and cleaned well. There was a lot of dust inside.
        I think that there is a graphic chipset issue because when I power the machine I get this error:
        "the detected discrete gpu VBIOS is not meant for this system"
        This make me think that maybe the gpu VBIOS has to be re programmed.
        BTW someone already worked on this mainboard. Near graphic board there is Winbond flash memory that I think its stored the VBIOS.
        I attach some pictures and one of message error I get when I power on the ...

        ZOTAC 1050TI LP TYPE / Is there a place where I can download the graphic card schemeatic?
        by Deong
        It's a problem that the screen is not output properly.
        There is no problem with the capacitor with the naked eye.
        There is no problem when I look at it with the tester.
        Is there a place where I can download the graphic card scheme?
        Unlike WATER PUMP, it's very complicated.

        by osrex
        Hello, this is my first post and im just a beginner, so be easy on me guy. thanks



        i have a LED chandeilier that switches colors from white to cool white to warm when toggling the switch, it has 24 LED arms, each arm is 30 CM length.

        Graphics Card mounting frame
        by Kemer
        Hello, I removed the graphics card from my laptop and I want to heat it in the oven. What I want to ask is, is it okay to heat the card without removing the metal mounting frame on it?

        As you can see in the photo, there is a plastic (black) gasket between the metal frame and the card. It sticks the frame tightly to the card.

        I previously removed the metal frame while heating it, but it is quite difficult to separate it from the surface it is attached to. If there is no problem, I do not want to remove it.

        What worries me right now is the possibility that...
