I remember eyeing up this card up back in the day. I waited a few, then pulled the trigger and did my I7 920 / HD 5870 build. 2010. Good memories. I STILL have that X58 rig, in its HAF full tower case (WITH wheels!). I've 'upgraded' it to a Xeon X5680 (4.3ghz), 24GB ram @1700 mhz, add in cards to include USB 3.0, MSI GTX 1070 (OC'd), and multiple SATA SSDs. My old HD 5870 is still pushing pixels in my brother's computer (he don't game, so it retired as a display adapter!). Enjoyed the vidya, and subbed...blast from the past. Looking forward to browsing back through yer channel!! 😄
The GPU core cooked itself to death despite the reported temperature of only 62c max (I’ll explain why). From someone who has fully disassembled and overclocked a GTX 285 (going on 5 years ago now) that IHS actually comes off and you will find thermal paste under there. When that paste dries up internally there are temperature hot spots on the silicon which are areas of beginning degradation even under normal clocks and voltage of the silicon all because the aged paste, the temperature you saw was measured from only a single point of the chip (often near the edge or in the centre of the die, which is only useful if the heat transfer material has a known good full coverage). Basically all GTX 285s on borrowed time unless you de-lid the core and replace the paste. A bit too late to say that in this scenario though. However you may be able to revive the card temporarily with the use of a heat gun after de-lidding the GPU core. And ofc re-pasting the silicon under the IHS.
@@andreas_aqua Yep, I can explain why. The actual (likely) reason(s) for why it didn’t power on can be because of a multitude of factors. First being the most obvious, that is a degraded or damaged core will not pass its power on self test when the system turns on. GPU chips just like CPUs perform their own self hardware test upon power being applied, and part of their internal microcode. Secondly, before a graphics driver loads to take control of the core, all parts of the graphics chip are activated, this means that now marginally defective parts are activated which causes the graphics core to fail its internal self test. Lastly, GPUs initialise with a very low voltage on startup/bootstrap (lower than the idle voltage in windows) which can obviously cause problems with degraded parts of the silicon. Any one of these factors can cause the exhibited issue. The reason why I mentioned the heat gun method is because there may be a slim chance that a bonding junction under the silicon interposer may have come disconnected from the high heat. Although the event of this happened is slim to none.
I still have one I use in a retro gaming rig. Dell poweredge T110 II Xeon e3-1220. Paid $500 when it was new. I love to show people there was actually a card that will give you second degree burns to your finger if you touch it while operating that actually existed and it just keeps going. I had to oven bake it once cause it started to malfunction. That fixed it 10 years ago.
Hey bro i have a toshiba laptop, do you think it can play minecraft 60 fps or 50 fps? the spec: I5 4200m 4600HD Intergrated graphics 8GB 256SSd Can this play minecraft?
@AlcherCraft I have a similar system and it struggled even at 900p, you’ll definitely have to drop the settings to fast to get it playable on the 4200m. Since the CPU is socketed I upgraded mine to an i7 4800MQ (twice the cores) and it improved the performance quite a bit.
Yea I do wonder why they did that back then and I believe most of the cards used paste not solder. Although this really becsme noticeable on the 400 series where people would delid them

he said that there was not video out after he restarted the pc , if it would have cooked itself to death wouldn't it just die as the pc was turned on

@@P2PC is it repairable ?
@@andreas_aqua No… if you read what I told you, you’d know that.
Your energy bro 🔥🔥🔥
Ayyy ty. We do a little hardware tomfoolery
for the same price u can get a gtx 745 4g ddr3, off of ebay. 1920x1080 at 144 hmz, playing warthunder on min, it gets about 40 to 60 fps
Didn't know a 745 was that capable. Definitely want to check one out
@@Jaindike I only play war thunder with it but yea it's a great card for the price
1:30 I believe that’s not actually the silicon but an IHS like CPUs have.
Yeah your right. Messed that one up

That's actually awesome. I've never baked a card before, I'm surprised that it survived for 10 years afterwards

Can this play minecraft?
Yes. Low settings with few chunks likely

How would any of these cards work with autocad?
Dunno if Autocad supports dx 10, but it probably wouldn't be to great either way
Fyi thst huge "die" is a IHS nvidia removed them on the 600 series. Although smaller died cards may not have had them.
Oh heck, didn't realize that. Ty
Yea I do wonder why they did that back then and I believe most of the cards used paste not solder. Although this really becsme noticeable on the 400 series where people would delid them
omg face reveal
Mr Jaindike exposed
@@Jaindike Yeah lol
Overclock a geforce g 100
Perferably the 256mb model
Just looked it up. I am morbidly curios now
i cant even overclock 1mhz before it hits me with a kernel crash😭
i cant play fortnite on my gtx 285 why?
Dunno. Try reinstalling drivers. Make sure your using the performance renderer in game
@@Jaindike d3d11 Shader model 5.0 or higher graphics card is required,same drivers work on gt730
@@kristianzivkovic6769 I think that his videos are fake becuse you cant play dx11 game on dx10 card, and fortnite performance mode uses dx11 not 10
depend i play Red Faction Guerilla and Lost Planet 3 ind DX11 on 9800gt ( the card have only dx10 ).
Not all game start but a few yes.@@AlmostBrokeLbs
what a pity for such a collectible gpu F
Yeah.. only cost me ~$5 luckily
I got the exact same lol imma do same
Lol nice
you should of tested bo1 or bo2
Bet, I'll see if I can find the games for cheap
please dont throw gpus anymore...
Fiine, if you insist
@@Jaindike i mean its your right, but it feels wrong and painful a bit
I GOT THE SAME LOL
