Bought a GTX 780 in October, in November it caught fire.
Bought a GTX 780Ti in January, today the computer doesn't turn on if I have it plugged in.
Am I unlucky, modern GPUs are horrible or am I doing something wrong?
Just unlucky, I've never had such luck
Any signs of burns or burnt parts on it?
Works in another computer???
Bad luck, that's all. I could say if you had AMD card then is much higher chance for a weird death as they're often throwing black screens or vertical stripes after couple of months of work.
I have 2x GTX780 and one of them was running on dice at 1.5V+, still works fine and is running on a modded BIOS at 1100MHz without voltage or clock drops. It's also hard modded. 2nd one is almost the same but I didn't try it on sub 0 temps. On the other hand it's usually covered by dust because my brother is not cleaning his PC often. I mean enough dust to cover ASUS sign on the backplate
