Hi Guys

So i bought a broken gtx 460 from some guy for extremly cheap, I currently have a evga gtx 470, great card, but i bought this 460 for a second rig and to overclock it. He did mention to me it isnt working, so I taught well, its so cheap its almost free so I'l take it and try the good old bake your gpu trick lol. So the card arrives, put it in see what it does, and the screen doesn't go on but the pc is booting all the way to windows can hear the welcome tune. So I take the card out and inspect it. Okay so 2 of the "gold teeth" on the gpu are soldered (presume something happend and he tryed soldering it) so i guess its not making proper contact or its completly broken or i don't really know. I'm not to interested in the card but if a quick cheap fix would work it would be great.
