ah, temporary possible solution: deploy spare 500W PSU to feed the second GPU power input... ugly, but it would do... and also, if this is the problem, then the memory glitch actually is not a fault but from a voltage drop

just looking up the options for a replacement and it's abysmal rn for getting a grunty PSU any time soon

i can just top the power pin and route a cable and leave the case open

if it really bugs me that much

unless there is some way to gimp the GPU so it doesn't run so fast... underclock it maybe... might be less ugly

Try setting power limit to 75% and let the card drop its own settings or you can undervolt the core directly. You're probably right that the power supply was the issue: was probably and insulator melting at one of the connectors that you smelled.

yeah, i'm pretty sure now... it also makes the framerate a bit choppy at times which i can only guess is from voltage drop
