Hi , I've had a GTX770 I bought used at a year or two old maybe a decade or
More ago .Its in an even older system with a high quality 1200W PSU and an i2600K at 4.4 GHz overcloxked .
In recent months it started to artefact and I took it out and repasted it and underclocked it with MSI Afterburner .
It worked on and off but yesterday it seems I'm now in some kind of driver uninstall / reinstall loop .Windows says there's a GTX770 in the machine but games aren't recognising it , refusing to start and giving Direct X and Open GL error messages.
I'm happy to shell out up to three figures for a used replacement but is there any fear it won't
Make any difference?!Ive tried changing slots etc Thanks

The only thing i can advise is to use, Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) if not already tried.
