OOOPS! I broke something!

[sam]

On my video card I broke off two of those little rectagular things on the PCB beside the RAM chips. What will happen if I try to boot with this card on my mobo?

Broken... yeah, in case of fire pull emergency handle.

DO NOT even think of trying it, the last person i know that did that fried the mobo, vcard, cpu all in one boot.

Sorry, but they are the most important part of the card, besides the gpu.

Oxymoron, eh? It was probably a bit dangerous to fire it up, but hey, it would have given you an excuse to upgrade, right
