Hey,
I accidentally spilled some coffee on my my desk today. Most of the liquid stayed on the desk but some of it found its way down my pc case and dropped directly onto my graphics card. The screen went blank and I turned the computer off immidiately. I grabbed a paper towel and tried to dry my case and the graphics card as well as I could. Then, I tried turning my pc on again but half of the screen was covered in artifacts. I decided to disconnect the graphics card and clean it with some surgical spirit. Now it is drying, ill leave it like that for 24h.
I bought the card in July, it's 1280MB EVGA GTX 570 HD DS, 40nm, 38. It is covered by an EVGA warranty but i am not sure if they will allow it. As you can see from the picture one of the stickers has coffee stains.
