I just bought a R9 270x and it worked for almopst a year. Last month, my computer suddenly shut down. I checked everything and it appears that there's a wet part on the PCI-e gold contact pins. I tried to removed it, and discovered that it was corroded and some of the gold covers came off. I had no idea where the water or oil came from, and I was pretty sure that it was the reason why my graphics card doesn't have video anymore.
I sent it to the shop where I bought it for RMA and they rejected it because of the corroded part on the PCI-e pins.
My question is, is it still possible to fix this card? and is it possible that it isn't the wet substance that caused my graphics card to stop working?
by the way, the corroded part was the left part near the DVI, HDMI connectors.
I would really appreciate it you guys could give me some advice and tips to have it fixed because I would love to see it working again. I just don't want to spend any more money to buy another video card since I just upgraded my processor and I have a very limited budget for my PC parts. Thanks in advance!
