So, my GPU has died. Which is kind of amazing since today it's exactly four days since I've built it.

I've just installed the integrated graphics drivers so at least I can still use my PC.

It sucks because I was expecting it to hold on until the 7 nm cards, so I could upgrade. I wonder what I'll do now.

I take it as years not days? Otherwise it would still be in warranty and you could get a new one.

What will you do? Wait or get a new one as soon as possible?

Yeah, four years, I've edited it, sorry. I'll have to get a new one I guess, though nothing exceptional, just a stop-gap solution.

There's some RX 570s for $149 at Newegg, so perhaps that would be a good choice? Since it was a GTX 970 who broke, I'd be OK with a sidestep for $149.
