Repair graphics card

[singaporean]

My dual fan Palit GTX1060 graphics card suddenly no display and fan not turning. Its probably out of warranty.

Does agent provide repair service by sending to factory? If yes, how much?

Are there alternatives to try to repair instead of just throwing it away?

I doubt the distro will handle out of warranty claims.

Even if you can find a third party to repair, the cost will likely exceed what the GPU is worth.

Can consider getting Ryzen 5700G. cpu + mobo + ram ~ $900. Upgrade to a better gpu later.

For those who not aware, you be surprise cards like GTX 1050 some sell around $200. (Not TI the normal one.)
GTX1060 around $300 for 3GB while the 6GB one as high as $500.

Oh.. Like that better change.
Not to mention Intel i5 2500k only supports PCIE2.0.
Newer graphic card not only be bottleneck by CPU but the PCEI 2.0 as well.
I still have a 2500K, tried PCIE 3.0 cards on it doesn't perform that as fast on a faster Intel pc with pcie3 0.

You mean new set? I paid like 330 for my 6GB gtx 1060 like four years ago lol

Just checked: it was 386, then with qoo10 cart coupon I saved about 50 bucks. And it was almost five years ago, on Dec 25 2016. Wow

at $200 a better bet would be a gtx 970 or r9 290. possible to snag 1060 5gb (effectively same as 6gb) off taobao for under 300. sucks that we have to pay over 200 for these more than 5 yr old cards but they are pretty much the best budget cards available, everything else has basically doubled in price thanks to crypto.

Exactly I have watching the prices on Caurosell for sometime sadly second hand prices are high.
I don't like those who sell weaker cards like GTX1050 or GTX7XX series for more than $200.
Nvidia already cease support for GTX7XX so meaning future games it won't be able to support.
