When I got back from work yesterday I checked my system, and somehow it had a small leak onto the graphics card. It was up and running okay overnight, then I come back to it restarted without putting out a signal to the monitor.
After that I took it and the mobo out of my case, and proceeded to pour 91% isopropyl on both to get all of the residue and everything off from my mixture. I put everything back in my system and reconnected today, and I can't get a picture on my screen. The worst part is, is that i don't know for sure whether or not I am having the cold-boot issue with my mobo or not.
any other way to think to fix my card or see if it works?
edit: any chance BFG will take it back if I put the stock cooler on it and make it look good as new?
