So I dropped my MSI GTX 750 onto the ground, nothing broke off of it but the top edge looks a bit roughed up and scratched up.... There's literally no way I can test this to see if it's alive, the system I'm on currently only has an AGP slot, and I don't have the CPU, motherboard, or PSU to see if this thing posts in bios. I only have the RAM, case, and GPU as of now....Anyone ever drop their cards before and place them in and see them work fine? Here's pictures of the card.

I swear...If this thing is dead....I'm going to kill myself...

I felt like my wallet tore me a new one...

I was surprisingly calm actually.... I lost it mentally though.....

I think everything's intact, I didn't see any pieces break off. The pins that go into the PCIe slot are all intact, no damage suffered to those. Not sure if this is damaged on the card though http://prntscr.com/6ikjwk those 6, large soldered circles look suspicious to me....Please don't be damaged.

I can't totally tell what's damaged on the card since I'm new to building computers, however nothing out of the ordinary seems terribly damaged.




Yup...Sadly I can't plug it into a computer to see if the card is working.... And that's something I really need to do...Can't have a dead card...
