Today my GTX 980 TI Decided to burn itself out and every time I attempt to turn my PC on it will instantly cut itself out to prevent the system from starting, is there anything that I can do to fix my graphics card, this happened when I was playing Rust on my system and the moment I smelt burning from my PC it instantly turned off, the card wasn't even overclocked.
 
Here is a image of my PCB
 
 
 
Is there anything I can myself? I am sure that my card is still under warranty.

    Welcome to the Forum Elune2222
    Good thing you have EVGA for support, have you submitted your Support Ticket for an RAM yet!
    Did you install a Water Block on this Card?

    Yep, you can fix that by sending it in for warranty. Sorry to hear this happened and hopefully the turn around is quick.

    Hello, I have made a submission for trouble shooting so I can open a RAM, and no I did not install a water block on the card, I was using the default ACX 2.0 cooler at the time it blew.

    I was looking at the attached images of the op's card  and  dyce9984's    notice the difference in the parts used ??   may be nothing, but like the R33  stamped on the top is not the same  lettering used [??]   then the chips beside them  one is   470/58  and the other is 470/53  then the ones with the 330 on them as well   the numbers under the 330 are different  ??  may mean nothing   just thought to point that out for fun

    That because I fully removed the plating in an attempt to find out what the problem was at the time, thankfully I got in contact with EVGA support and they approved my RMA I just have to shop my faulty card of to their dept and they will send a replacement, 10/10 service so far :)
