Hi, i have an evga gtx 680 signature 2 graphics card that was working perfectly before today.. So let me explain, I bought the nzxt kraken g10 along with a corsair h90 cpu cooloer. Now if you dont know the nzxt kraken g10 is a bracket made specially to be able to water your gpu with a cpu cooler. After installing the new parts i tried turning on the system and nothing shows up. i took the card out and noticed that the gold strip that went into the pci slot was bending, but not the much just barely really. So i loosened up the screws on the bracket and tried again, still nothing.. I also went into the bios and made sure that its going off the pci slot, Whish im almost possitive it is. I also installed the integrated graphics for my processor prior to this so i could still go on my pc, which i am currently going off of. I did one last thing and completely removed the bracket and put the stock cooler that comes with my 680 back on. After doing that i noticed that fans still work on the card but when its out of the pci slot they dont. I am very confused and pray that my card isnt broken, i honestly dont know how i couldve broke it during the process unless the gold strip bending couldve really caused this, it was really barely noticeable. Anyways im am open to all answers and trouble shooting, Please help if you can. Thanks!

try your card on another pc to see if it works first. then, we'll know if the card is broken or not. if you have a spare card or could borrow one, try it on your board.
