This GPU has physical damage and I have not been able to fully POST with it installed. See pictures for reference.

There is a dent in the backplate, which appears strictly cosmetic. There is also damage at the PCIe connector. It looks like at least one pin got scraped. My guess is the GPU was dropped, or was in a computer that had been dropped. As far as I know, no one has tried to repair it.

I bought this card second hand from a person who claimed it would POST regardless of the damage. I have tried it in two different systems, one AM4 and one LGA1151. The board with code display read 97. The other got stuck in a boot loop.

I'm hoping someone out there can revive this card so it has another life. And at the same time, I can reclaim some of the money I spent on this one.

Please message me with any questions.
