    ASUS HD 6970 memory chip faulty

    Hello i have a well known problem with the old radeon card. Two vertical stripes on the loading screen. The problem is, of course, some bad memory chip. Unfortunately all programs software you use work only from the 7000 series up. Anyone have any way to determine which memory chip is it? There are 8 of them and I would not like to guess.

    I think I saw a hardware method once. There was something like that you connected a line to GND and watched which lines went out.

    Thanks

      what specific trace? Everything looks fine. I have already done dozens of such repairs on the 700 and R9 series. But we have the testing software there.

          Thank you very much. HD 6950 has 8 memory chips. First, I tried with the B0 bank and it was unchanged, it turned out to be a defective B1.

          Problem solved
