I'm assuming this won't work if the GPU isn't being detected by the machine at all?

It reads about 0.04 yes.

Thanks, I've tried pretty hard using saftey pins to get a reading from the pins you've marked but I'm unable to. Doesn't read zero just reads as if the probes aren't touching anything. The other pins on the red row all give readings to ground, I can't get any readings on any of the pins on the...

Funnily enough a colleague of mine just bought a GT 710, I don't think they knew anything about graphics card, cost £70 as well!

Upon recheck of C and D: C: 0.06 G: 0.05 Regarding the gate pins, you'll have to walk me through checking those, not sure what they are I'm afraid! I couldn't see any cracked or damaged capacitors but I'm not 100% sure. I've attached some close ups. Good to know, I'm pretty certain I was having...

Sorry I got a reading of zero, good job the probe orientation didn't matter! Ah bummer, did another reading and it's definetly 0.04. But hey finding it is good news! Not to hand regarding the power supply/hot air but I can either get access to both at work, or purchase a hot air gun off amazon...

Ah good job I didn't try that! I'll give it a shot with some new paste. Edit: no luck, applied new paste and no change, gpu lights up but no spin on the fans and no display :(

I'll try re-pasting, but surely the card should boot up without a heatsink on anyway? Yeah I guessed! Poor sod! Sorry I forgot to take the front plate off (let me know if you need better photos, google is gimping the quality) Also my multimeter is super old, hope I'm doing this right, red to...

I've attached some pictures! It's an msi gtx 1080 gaming x 8GB, non ti Yeah the second machine has a 750w PSU, no beeps or QR code, the machine actually boots up I can access it fine remotely, the original machine functions fine with the onboard graphics and my gtx 970.

To cut a long story short, I think my 1080 has died, it lights up, but I don't get any output to a monitor nor do the fans spin. I've confirmed it doesn't work in a different machine either, and confirmed that the rest of the components are working properly. I was experiencing crashes under load...
