EVGA GeForce GTX 980 4GB GDDR5 PCI Express Video Card (04G-P4-2983-KR)

Description

EVGA GeForce GTX 980 4GB GDDR5 PCI Express Video Card (04G-P4-2983-KR)
It frequently crashes momentarily for a few minutes and coming back on. It doesn't BSOD or damage the PC, but it happens too frequently for me to use it. There are exceptions where it works fine and they tend to be applications that don't use a lot of GPU power like emulators.
I believe it's because the card was water-damaged a while ago (the damage is still visible around the chipset).
------------------------------------------------------------
The new EVGA GeForce GTX 980 is powered by the next-generation NVIDIA Maxwell architecture, giving you incredible performance, unmatched power efficiency, and cutting-edge features.
Maxwell is the most advanced GPU architecture ever made, designed to be the engine of next-generation gaming. Inspired by light, it was designed to solve some of the most complex lighting and graphics challenges in visual computing. For the first time, gaming GPUs can dynamically render indirect light using the new VXGI (Voxel Global Illumination technology. Scenes are significantly more lifelike as light interacts more realistically in the game environment.
EVGA ACX 2.0
This card features EVGA ACX 2.0 cooling. With optimized Swept fan blades, double ball bearings and an extreme low power motor, EVGA ACX 2.0 delivers more air flow with less power, unlocking additional power for the GPU.
Dynamic Super Resolution Technology
Enable the detail of 4K monitors, on a 1080P display. DSR produces smoother images by rendering a game at a high resolution, then downscaling it to the native resolution of the display using advanced filtering.
Super-Smooth and Stutter-Free
GeForce GTX 980 and 970 cards support tear-free, super-fast NVIDIA G-Sync monitor display technology, including 4K. Together, these technologies provide the most immersive and competitive gaming experiences possible.
