GPU is fried!?

[HeyyScott]

Today while browsing the internet with my game on the background..
My computer suddenly made a pop noise and followed by a auto reboot..
but the monitor suddenly didn't receive and connection and I suddenly smelled something burning.
I turned off all the power and remove the tower case and try to find the source of the smell.
I turned the power on every fan and light seem to go on but the monitor still seem to not connect.
I removed the monitor cable and connected to my motherboard instead of the GPU and it finally worked!
So ultimately.. I'm guessing my GPU is the problem..
I check my bio and it cant detect the GPU..
What to do.. -.-

What is your PSU? It sounds like the PSU messed up and burned out your GPU. 🙁

Corsair CX 750w.
I'm on the computer right now writing this.
Monitor is currently connected to my motherboard instead.

What's your GPU? Try returning it.
CX series PSUs are pretty bad, but it may not be the issue. The card may have just short circuited and blew. 🙁

Sounds like a capacitor on the graphics card has popped.
Remove the card and give it a close inspection, look for: Discoloured/burnt areas and that the capacitors are all nice and cylindrical, no bulging sides and flat tops-if you can see them.
If it's the 4Gb GTX770 in your sig it'll be under warranty, so you should start the return procedure.

I can't really seem to find the burnt or broken area just by looking around the exterior of the card.. it's problem more inside, under the gpu cooler.
Also, for the warranty replacement. Do I just pack the GPU and with some sort of evidence (invoice/receipt) proving that I purchased the GPU? That's it?
