Kind of difficult to tell what spot you're talking about, but maybe this is one area I'm not particularly well-versed in, to be fair. A couple things in that first image look a little off, but it could be dust. The second image looks fine. Can you use MS Paint and just circle what you're thinking is the issue?

Looks like a screw popped off

Though I believe any warrantly is voided at the point you are

I think I can tell what screw you're talking about and I think it's not quite what it appears to be. I don't think it's that. A screw popping off wouldn't cause an electrical pop sound.

He's definitely voided his warranty, you're totally right on that.
@Indless, what card was it exactly? Manufacturer, part number... I see it's an eVGA, but more information would help.

Just bin it and buy a 1080ti or something...

I thought you were suggesting the screw popped off when the pop happened as the computer shut off.

Probably aluminum capacitor failure. Your card is likely shorted on PCIe power, dont try to power up your card, you risk 12V getting on to power controller and/or GPU (if it didnt already).

ya, it popped off, bounced like hell, he opened the card after the pc shut down

the screw probably damaged the card

To be fair he said the capacitors look fine, I don't think we can see all of them, but I am not seeing any with any obvious damage.

I have a 1080 ti this is for my alt computer, but yeah everything looks fine after i found a picture of a new one and compared it, other than the thermal paste not fully covering the chip I have no clue what it is, gonna send it in and have them repair it

[Master Guns]

Your warranty..is voided..

You'll likely have to pay for the repairs.

The ones that fail are usually on the back of the card

[Indless]

I forgot to update, evga has an amazing warranty, they replaced my card with a new 1080

[Master Guns]

Gonna have to say, that's a miracle, as your warranty was clearly voided with whatever you've been doing to it by those pictures.

[Maduk]

as your warranty was clearly voided

Nope, EVGA allows disassembly.
