- Surveillance de la température : Use monitoring software (e.g., Palit ThunderMaster, MSI Afterburner) to keep an eye on GPU temperatures, especially during heavy loads. Ensure temperatures remain within safe operating limits.
7. Dépannage
En cas de problème, veuillez consulter la liste des problèmes courants et leurs solutions ci-dessous :
| Problème | Solution possible |
|---|---|
| No display output after installation. |
|
| System crashes or freezes during use. |
|
| Poor performance in games or applications. |
|
| Les ventilateurs ne tournent pas. | Many modern graphics cards feature a 0dB fan mode, where fans only spin up when the GPU reaches a certain temperature (e.g., 50°C). This is normal behavior for silent operation under light loads. If fans do not spin under heavy load and temperatures are high, check power connections and driver installation. |
