[SOLVED] GPU PINS

[pcsohard]

Hello, guys!
I have an inquiry about my gpu pins;
Are some of them supposed to be shorter than others?
Is that a burnt pin? ( hopefully not )

The shorter pins are supposed to be like that (you can see that they're cut perfectly straight, not ripped, and there would be metal underneath the gold if they were broken).

The black marks look like they were scratched by the PCIe slot. Nothing terrible. The gold is really just a coating and the scratched part is the exposed metal underneath.

It could also possibly be from debris in the socket so it might not be a bad idea to spray some compressed air into it.

Overall, as long as the GPU is working properly then it's nothing major.
