hey guys !

i have a problem with my gtx 590 ,and the problem is the card is broken :D so i don't know how to fix it :(

and yeah i lost the warranty of my card by changing the cooler to a waterblock ! and the nooby stuff that i lost the cooler !

so the big question is how the card is broken ? i really don't know .. maybe temp so high or bad setup of the waterblock maybe bad day , any way i inspect the card and i found 2 place on it have a burn smell :eek:

picture:



so i hope the vrm / mosfet not dead ! and if yes how to fix it :(
my second question is :what the name of the little electronic? fusible or a transistor or what ? because when the gtx is dead i saw a smoke from it ! so can i just build a bridge on it or something like that ?

and can i enable 1 gpu if the second gpu 2 have a dead vrm/vc/mosfet ?


btw i have 2 gtx 590 and 2 psu 600w corsair /ocz

sorry bad English :p

Were you running the card at stock voltage? It's well known that gtx 590s have weak VRMs, I remember seeing the launch and consecutive days filled with records of reviewers blowing up their samples with very tiny overvolts.
Chances are that if you overvolted the card is dead.
