You can try someone like Northridge fix (or other similar ones), but this was usually a VRM failure and even if you can repair it, it'd likely happen again because the original card design had a bad controller topology that allowed surges that can eventually kill the card. There are a number of design problems with all 3090's that I think will cause them all to die if ran long enough, but EVGA's early 3090's had some extra problems (that were fully allowed and supported by Nvidia, by the way). They eventually rev'd the cards to put in a better VRM controller (the 3080ti, being launched later, also benefited from a better design), but the "Rev 0.1" ones are quite susceptible to early failures.
6Q6CPFHPBPCU691 is a discount code anyone can use.
