I've got a hell of a tech support inquisition, I'll bring you through the events first.>Tuesday night, playing games on the PC, no problems.>Bedtime, click shutdown and UPDATE.>Wednesday night, Crank up the PC for a session of T.C Breakpoint>Artifacts, artifacts everywhere, the stretchy polygon type.So i've done the following self diagnosis / fixes>Uninstalled previous windows update, only let me delete 2 of the 4 posted that installed the night before.>Updated gpu>Deleted all gpu drivers and cold reinstalled>Used the windows "go back" button to go to the previous update>Moved gpu around in the socket, reseated cables.>Tried HDMI and DP>-200 on both clock speeds and power limit down to 75 in afterburnerNothing changed, and also, 1/3 times I restart, my PC disables my gpu and says code 43 in device manager.Furmark has artifacts instantly regardless of temp.I'm fairly certain my gpu is cooked but its the update the night before that has me thinking otherwise. If I'm missing something that I could check or try I'm all ears!7800X3DRTX3080 FE32gb ramStrix B650I've only ever ran this card at 4K
>only let me delete 2 of the 4 posted that installed the night before.>Used the windows "go back" button to go to the previous updatedid you fully reverse the update?also, is your greentext the order in which you did things?

Might sound dumb but try removing/replacing cmos on motherboard
>>1573503Its worked for me once before, I'll get one tomorrow.Already have a 5070Ti and a case in the shopping cart for microcenter
Damn OP, I'm really sorry, I can only offer my condolences. I am genuinely shocked that Microsoft is still not legally on the hook for bricking users' computers with these broken and janky "updates."
