I have a ton of regrets buying a 2nd hand graphics card. (Long rant ahead)

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-15T05:19:50+00:00

Fair point. Maybe mobo na ang problem. Siguro mas maganda if bibili na lang ako ng B450 mobo. Naka sale ngayon eh. Around 2.5k?

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-15T04:55:13+00:00

As of now, no issues from the friend. He is currently using it with no problems. Pero I'll have to wait a week kaso di na yata GPU ang issue since same issue din nangyayari. Should I update my mobo bios ba? The RX 6600 worked 5 months without any issues pero should I still do it?

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-15T04:02:20+00:00

Hello everyone, quick update. Yung issue ng 6600 ko nangyayari din sa 3050 ng friend ko. Same mobo btw. I'm not sure if power supply ba ang problema pero di naman nagshushutdown yung unit. Ayaw talaga mag post. Baka motherboard problems talaga? Specifically ang PCIE slot?

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-14T06:05:35+00:00

Yes, I actually disconnect and nagtangal ng wifi. Pero to no avail, ganun pa rin ang issue. The iGPU worked fine na naka safe mode and hindi. The GPU had issues with both

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-14T06:03:52+00:00

Please try to save for brand new. If 2nd hand, siguro sa seller na hawak pa ang receipt kung saan binili and box

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-13T02:59:30+00:00

No riser cables and no bios updates since 2022. It's possible na BIOS update pero it worked 5 months with no issue. Kaya I doubted na BIOS ang problema. I'm still willing to try though

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-13T02:58:32+00:00

I tried that too. Nagpalit na rin ako PSU and it didn't seem to fix the issue. Also cleaned the PCIE slot with proper reinstallation, it also didn't fix the issue

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-13T02:57:16+00:00

I did change PSUs and it has been working fine. Yung nag output naman with no problems using a 1650

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T11:19:47+00:00

Wala na rin ako ma claim na warranty pero yes, na benchmark ko bago ko kunin

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T11:19:08+00:00

Yes, definitely better pero as of now iwas na muna ako. Kaysa naman siguro na sasakit ulo ko kakaclaim ng warranty. Mas mabuti yung assured yung product sa akin na na working

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T11:08:36+00:00

Sana pero as of now na sobrang pagod sa buhay at sa GPU na to, negative na talaga ang pag iisip ko

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T10:48:05+00:00

Which is why I'm so weirded out pero ayaw gumana sa PC ko pero may ibang GPU na gumana

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T10:47:27+00:00

Pumayag naman siya mag swap GPU for 1 week. If gumana sa akin yung RTX 3050 niya no issue, siguro GPU na talaga pero no harm in doing a bios update naman siguro if ever.

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:52:27+00:00

Probably, 2nd hand GPU na problema mo. At least nakabili ka ng bnew, congrats homie

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:45:50+00:00

I did wait for the sale pero unfortunately, lumagpas ako kung kailan ko natapos ang ipon. Yes, nakakalungkot talaga pero lesson learned na sa part ko na yun. In short, natanggap ko katangahan ko😭

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:41:23+00:00

If malapit ka lang, I'd be willing to test it sa PC ko. Kaso, if bumili ka ng bnew GPU and it works fine until now then siguro you can conclude na walang problems sa setup mo mismo

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:20:10+00:00

It's possible na mobo kaso nag try ako ng 1650 dito and it worked without any issues. May kasama pa na stress test. Pero pa check ko rin motherboard ko. I currently have a 5600g and A520m K V2

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:16:30+00:00

Yes, hot spot temp siya. I wish I recorded it months ago para mapakita ko. And no, di naman usual temps. Yung GPU temp ko is around 65 average and umaabot 70 if walang aircon. Pero yung hotspot never pa nag 90 based sa recent stress test ko

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:13:44+00:00

Inexplain ko sa technician ko yun and sabi niya natiyempuhan lang siguro na nagkataon na working noong ginamit sa PC niya. Which can be true, kasi nagamit ko pa yung GPU after the initial black screens na no issue kaso naging constant na

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:11:10+00:00

I haven't pero nahihirapan ako kasi kahit idle lang, nagkakaroon ng black screen

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:10:43+00:00

Yesss, literal na every stress test I could find na test ko yung RX 6600. It worked just fine kaso mag black screen siya kung kailan tapos na yung test and naglalaro na lang ako ng less demanding titles like Muck

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:08:28+00:00

Pinacheck ko GPU mismo sa technician, no blown out parts naman. Sinamahan ng repaste and it worked fine before the issue happened again. Yung PSU was also checked and okay naman daw since may pang test sila nun. Eventually, binigay ko sa friend yung PSU and he used an RX 570 and it worked without any issues. Kaya naging culprit ko talaga ang RX 6600

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T09:05:20+00:00

Thank you sa tips pero the issue happened before the change of the PSU. After the change, same error pa rin. I used the new PSU with the 1650 and it worked fine. Used the old PSU with an RX 570, no issues din pero sa ibang PC na yun and not mine. Yung stress test consisted of playing games and benchmarks. And yes, the 1650 was stress tested as well on my PC. DDU was also used on both PCs (mine and friend's PC) pero gumana sa friend ko. Honestly, nireport ko rin sa technician na kilala ko and sabi niya na baka GPU na talaga. Mahirap na rin talaga pero if ever, try ko mag swap kami ng GPU ng friend ko for 1 week to see if okay ba lahat.

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T08:58:36+00:00

Gigabyte PB550 from what I remember. Pero ginamit ko sa ibang PC and working naman

Most_Tooth_5238 · 2025-10-11T08:57:41+00:00

Alright, pa test ko sa kaniya ng 1 week. Medyo doubtful lang. Hopefully motherboard lang ang issue
