I have a gtx 1660 super which turns off in the middle of doing something. I don’t get any output to my monitor and even restarting doesn’t solve the problem. It is quite random and very frustrating to say the least. The only solution I have now is to wait for an hour or so and restart - I’ll get display output if I’m lucky.

When the gpu stops, the motherboard debug led doesn’t light up. The led lights up only when I restart the PC.

Is there any way to check if the issue lies with the motherboard or the gpu without using another graphics card ?

(I dont have integrated graphics either, because I have an i5 10400f)

My motherboard is - MSI B460 M Pro VDH wifi

EDIT: Got a 4 month used rx 6600 for ~ $120 and now this problem no longer happens. it’s not a substantial upgrade from my 1660 Super but an upgrade nonetheless.

    Yes, though whether or not it’s economical to do so will depend on local economics where you are.

    If you bought the card new yourself, it likely would have come with at least a 3 year warranty.
