I temporarily disable ECC memory protection on a NVIDIA K20m (device 0 in my node) and now I cannot bring it back to work again. Before that it was working properly with ECC enabled. So, here is what I did: I disabled ECC with

nvidia-smi -i 0 --ecc-config=0

and rebooted. When it came up it showed 100% GPU utilization and it wouldn't start any kernels (it actually already failed when creating the context). The reason was a double bit error. I reset it with

nvidia-smi -i 0 --reset-ecc-errors=0

and rebooted the node. After the reboot the device utilization was 0% and I could start jobs as usual. A few hours later the device showed again a 100% GPU utilization. This time it didn't report a double bit error (not even a single bit error). However, since I couldn't run any job I rebooted the node and it came up with 100% GPU utilization, I can't use it, but reports no bit errors. What's the matter this it?

Is my GPU dying?

I say it's already dead. It's no longer reporting bit errors because you turned off the thing that detects them. (ECC detects more than it can correct.) However, it may be the memory on the card (or the physical card itself) that's developed a fault.

There's two other suspects before I'd chuck it in the "recycle" bin: cooling, and power supply. Cooling is easy enough to check; power, not so much.
