Asus r9 290 blown capacitor

[jdyankee5]

I was upgrading my processor and after plugging everything back in, i am not able to get any picture/signal to my monitor. Upon further inspection of the card it looks like capacitor C105 might be blown. Could this affect my signal? And if so what are my options to get it repaired? I am going to try RMA but i bought it over a year ago and cannot find the receipt.

Are you sure the capacitor has blown? There should be somekind of burn smell to it. Anyway with burn like this some vendor will reject the RMA request. If you can find your receipt you can try doing RMA process.

There wasn't a burning smell but if you look at the pictures i included it definitely looks blown. As i mentioned above, I cannot find my receipt so i'm not sure how viable an option RMA is (although I do plan on trying). If they don't take it, do i have any other options to get this fixed?

i'm afraid no.
