COVID positive. First time for me.
I have been in bed for a few days already with a high fever. While I'm already starting to feel slightly better, this thing actually sticks like glue.

@Ailantd I do hope you've gotten prescription for Paxlovid.
In USA you can get it even if it's not covered by health insurance.

My GPU is starting to show occasional glitches even in the desktop... so I guess it will not last much longer.

@Ailantd I had similar issue with my old card.

Setting the minimum frequency of the memory clock (accessible in drivers overclock section) made it work stable.

The problems is usually cracking of solder balls inside the flip-chip micro BGA. It's caused by thermal expansion stress (when turned on and off).

Heating the GPU (aka reflow) does help, for a while.

Second-hand crypto-mining cards are usually good option, as they've worked non-stop.

When possible, use GPU integrated in CPU.
