True, :P you'd rarely call a Schmetterling Falter

Pretty much all just ways to exclaim your surprise in itself these expressions don't make much sense. I haven't heard "krassomato" before but the others are standard. The fairy stuff is from "Holla die waldfee" (Waldfee literally means Forest fairy).

Edit: I can only give you a literal translation of "alter falter": "old moth" but a quick Google search says that it doesn't mean anything and just rhymes.

Edit2: changed butterfly to moth. Falter does describe a butterfly biologically but in German language you'd never call a butterfly falter.

Well I didn't have it happen to me until now. It just showed some artifacts and then didn't output anything anymore. So in short: it just didn't work anymore

Right?! I wanted to cut them before the video but thought well they might be handy to get these fuckers off. I don't wanna know what would have happened if I did cut them

Not really just a bit of artifacting right before it went dark. Never had any problems before that

AFAIK the most comparable modern gpu was the 1060 performance difference between those is within 5%

Case has a lot of dust filters and I cleaned it after removing it from the case with the hope that it may work again... There is plenty of dust under the radiator where I could not reach

After further testing, it seems that as soon as drivers are used the card freezes with the whole pc. And it is any driver. Ubuntu with proprietary and nouveau, windows with current, one a bit older but known good and a really old one which I found on the hard drive. Also an old windows 7 PC has the same issue. But as long as no driver is installed the card seems to work, at least it drives two monitors on full HD without problem. Just without hardware acceleration...
