Can a pin break inside of the pc? Even if you take very good care and never dropped it or anything?

Yeah I was trying to upgrade my 1659super with a 1660 super and I took out the 1650 super nothing wrong before, put in the 1660 super and my friend said that I needed to delete graphics drivers before, so I put the 1650 back in and it was in properly. When I tried to use the pc again, the monitors would not receive any signal. I have tried everything imaginable and my friend told me that my gpu slot could be broken. I didn't ever force anything too much and put it back in weirdly. Do you think the gpu slot could have broken?

hi, I have a DQ57TM motherboard with a corei5 processor. The power supply is 350watt but it doesn't have power connector for the GPU.. What GPU can I install to be compatible and doesn't need power connector? I prefer to have a 3gb gpu. Thank you

Does a chip to the coil means its broken? Unusable?.

I noticed one of my slot PCIE pins was bent back a bit, I did not think these would be a problem. The GPU seemed like it installed ok, but noticed the card was running as x8 not x16. If I added any other card to the system even if its a non-shared slot, it would drag it down to x4 on the GPU. Used a small pin and pushed the pin forward as best I can, now its running a x16 again, even with the other slot filled with a WIFI card. Interesting, the fact that this is almost impossible to see. I mostly likely did this damage when removing my GPU, as its a big 1080ti and is very hard to remove from the lock from this board. I could not find an example of this problem on YouTube, so had to wing the repair.

Just wanted to say 'thank you' for the video, from a person who, with over 25 years experience in I.T., needed to replay this video twice before I caught my problem.
I purchased an MSI H87-43 as a replacement mainboard to host my i5-4440. Was a good deal, and it came with 32GB DDR3. by the time I got around to the build, I already bought another used PC, and it had became my mainstay, though it lacks in performance and eye candy.
months passed and i bought new LCD fans, and gutted and painted my HAF half tower... I purchased a used crypto mining rig, because it came with a nice graphics card, EVGA GEFORCE GTX 980TI ACX 2.0. I spent 25 bux for a Mining rig with a $400 video card.
Again, months passed as I had medical issues over the holidays, but tonight, I decided to install this GPU and load up my favorite FPS!
I placed it in the buttery fly levered, PCI-E 3.0 first slot, I connected the 6 pin plus the 8 pin ( 6 pin plus 2 connector ), which is a pain in the ass.. especially because the case is so damn big, but still, I've got to double over to get every thing seated correctly. including the power connectors.
Long story short, I had been messing with this for about three hours, get no post, no display, regardless the output type...
I read the manual 9 times, , I YouTube the motherboard and graphics issues.. your video comes up in my playlist..
and you keep saying... over and over.. almost monotonous... almost annoyingly... "make sure is fits"... " you don't want to push anything.." " make sure it goes into the connector easily..." " there isn't enough room, so I will place the graphics card in the slot in the back."
I rewound the video and paid attention this time.

I have not built a machine, or upgraded a PC in roughly three years. Without exaggeration, in my lifetime, I have easily built and deployed over 500 desktop machines - easily. and I'm the idiot who didn't notice that the GPU heat sink was resting on the CMOS battery. The card wasn't seating fully. I'm an idiot. worse

I tried installing it in the next lower PCI-E slot, ( thinking I've got the problem resolved, felling a bit embarrassed), I hit the power nothing.. same issue, except this time, I'm high centered on a capacitor, and the tail of the video card is precariously close to a chassis fan header.

The only way to get this card... mounted to this motherboard... is with a PCI-E powered header; which, thanks to the mining rig, I have several. and It will go in the slot easy, and there won't be any pressure, and there will be plenty of room around the card with space for the connectors and the cables won't get in the way, and I won't have to start a new career over being an idiot who didn't listen.

I just clean my case and inside because of full of dust and then when i try to open my computer it's not working properly yeah also there's was a display but the gpu is not working properly but before i clean it it's working fine..any help

[Joscatiny]

Umm a my 6+2 pin connector on my Power supply doesn't seem to fit would it be alright if I if I force it in my other pin 8 seem to fit fine but my 6+2 not I bought 6+2 pin connector and they don't seem to fit what should I do?

[JackeyGamerOfficial]

bro at ur gpu there was one goldenpin scrathced i'm facing too same my pc is not turning on after placing gpu help!

[furrynick]

I have a MSi 4090 suprim which is a huge GPU but is not sitting properly in PCIe slot for nothing. I am seeing gold plated and it will not go in all the way and there’s no clip . I haven’t been able to identify the problem. I don’t know if is a case defect or I heard something too about the motherboard standup screws might probably have the motherboard sitting too low but I don’t really think so. But I will be looking into something that you mentioned at 3.44 in your video, which is something that really didn’t occur to me to check and make sure that it is inserting properly in there. By the way I have a Cooler master Cosmos c700M full case which it is a massive case itself so you wouldn’t expect any problems.

Any other additional advice would be greatly appreciated

My gpu and usb isn’t working I tried a lot of stuff would you be able to help

Hello I recently bought a Radeon hd 8570 gpu but the bracket is too big for my optiplex 3020 sff and I was wondering what do I do?

[computerguy]

Currently upgrading old Dell Inspiron 560 to kinda learn my way around pcs. Using Core 2 Duo e8400 3.0ghz, PNY ge force gt 710 since it was cheap. What would be a good gpu to upgrade to and how do I go about installing drivers and what not?
