Title: Radeon HD6950 leaking.
Post by: samboread on March 30, 2014, 06:05:43 am

Hi.

I own a Gigabyte Radeon HD9650 Graphics Card which is 2 years old

Today when I turned on my PC there was this high-pitched squealing coming from inside the Graphics Card, and no output being displayed.

On closer expectation I noticed that there was an oil-like liquid leaking from inside the graphics card. The computer boots fine without the gfx card.

Is this a common occurrence or has something seriously gone wrong?
Would it be working trying to fix or just get a new updated card?

Thanks Heaps

Hi ,

A sound like whistling, squeaking, can come from a component that silliness, which is altered.

And if you have a liquid, it is a bad sign.

Make a detail notice, complaint about your graphics card.
Add a Picture if possible.
