    Maxwell based 900 series cards are the final series supported in WinXP...
    Drop it into a Haswell system (also the last supported) for the absolute fastest Retro WinXP rig ever made.

    A friend of mine just gave me his old Titan X to sell it for him and this video was super helpful to get it cleaned up and looking good. Thanks!

    These cards are still amazing. Managed to get my hands on one about 4 months ago for NZ$170. (Sold as," card over heating"). Stripped it down and gave it a good clean and replaced pads and paste and its like brand new now. :-). Good job. keep the great videos coming.

      Kinda late but it is 1mm. I guess you've already done it haha.

    changing thermal paste will make a bigger temperature difference.. you should always replace thermal paste when you take apart old cards/clean them.

    5:15 your gpu isn't running at Pci-e 3 x16 you need to use the first socket. Not sure how will it improve the performance but it's not at the full bandwidth at the moment.

      @@modstek A 2080 TI(Almost the same memory bus width, but with GDDR 6 instead of the Titan X's GDDR5, and a much faster chip.) was barely able to saturate PCI-E 3.0 x8. Unless you slot your card into a PCI-E lane provided by the chipset instead of the CPU(which would do bad things to the chipset and everything it provided for, as well as probably being an x4) you're fine.

    did this today to my dead titan x ye i know bloody sad but bloody hell what a mission! Took me about 8 hours to do cause of the stupid small allen key crews but got it restored to brand new all i just need now is a new motherboard but sure that costs as much as a already working 1

      It's not very hard. The cards core has a couple mms of steel covering it,and unless you cut something by dragging a screwdriver insanely hard against the card, it should be fine.

  • @BenTiredson
    @BenTiredson 2 роки тому +1

    The thermal pads are all 1mm just in case if you guys want to know.

  • @shoaibali0
    @shoaibali0 3 роки тому

    The height of new thermal pads is 1 mm. There is no need to buy 0.5mm. If you are in doubt or you see that 0.5mm ones are cheaper you can always buy 0.5 and double them up. The clear plastic goes to bottom and colored protector goes on top. Keep the protector on until the end while you are working on it to protect it from dust. Please make sure to wear gloves, as fingers will leave contaminants.

    Hey, I have a 699-1G600-0000-501 - nVidia GeForce GTX TITAN X with oxidation from storage on multiple components. And, long story short, a diode caught on fire but I extinguished it quickly. Had this since 2015. I have two questions and I’m hoping you’ll be able to help me out. 1-What do you recommend using to remove oxidation? 2-is there a diagram of the components?

      Amazon has screw extractor kits for $12. You might have to dig for a small version but I'd bet you can get them out and replace the screws and/or rethread the holes.
