i can't believe my 2080ti is still working. i got it for free from a friend because one of the 3 fans broke and no matter how much he downclocked it, it would overheat. he was like "if you fix it then you can just keep it, i already bought a new one."

without wanting to replace the fan and go through all the trouble of taking off the heatsink and shit, i instead bent the heatsink down where the tilted fan was rubbing up against it.

the thing works like a charm and has been going strong for like 2 years now lol. i fully expected to have to buy another one at this point. although, i might soon anyway just because even the 2080ti isn't cutting it for some of this newer shit. it's two generations behind, going to get to 3 pretty soon here.

i'll do what i've always done and just give it to my other roommate when i upgrade. his pc is actually made up almost entirely of my old parts lol.
