C-7 , C-8 SMD capacitors were burned

[AlperD]

These two capacitors were burned but my gpu works hella fine? I played bo3 like 5 hours i didn't had any problems.

Is it repairable? (sorry for my bad english)

An electronics repair shop like NorthridgeFix should be able to replace it so long the traces are not damaged.

Did you buy this card new? If it within warranty create an RMA.

Should be easily fixable, even with a proper soldering iron. Not a cheap one. I would be more interested why these are burned in the visible area.

What card is that?

High chance that they were hit during installation; that damaged them, and during powerin on they burned.

They are risky in current state, make continue burning. Just removing their leftovers without putting anything in place would be fine solution. Capacitors a highly redundant, many more left installed in parallel on the same power line, so "lack 2 of 50" just cause a minor less overclocking potential.

Could be an inductor, maybe a cap. One way to tell is caps hold a charge and inductors do not.

There is an underlying cause. Generally these are in a circuit with a voltage regulator. I would send the card out to RMA. If its an old card with little resale value, plan on replacing it.

We better wait until the first time - topic poster comes back
I saw many posts from first time posters which never responded

It would be pretty odd to call inductor C7 and C8 instead of inductor L7 and L8. They are almost certainly capacitors.

Burnt up ceramic capacitors often start as cracked ceramic capacitors. Some force or impact is applied to them, they crack, the plates inside short, and then they burn.

Yep, you're right! I should have clicked the pictures and looked closer at the PCB markings.

However, it's not likely that 2 smd capacitors where damaged from bending if they are part of the same circuit. They probably got hot, or there's a different issue that caused it.
