GPU problem! HELP! :P 1050ti Expedition

[NiteLook]

Hey guys! i need help, so Last night i cleaned my table then repositioned my PC (w/o unplugging anything) then i tried to place something on top of my graphics card (a metal balicomb, which weigh a bit), after placing it i noticed that i lost my display, after that i tried to restart my PC but no display but the fans rotate, Yes they rotate but not like the traditional that they would shut off after a while after turning on. I tried removing it and placing it back again, but found no luck in doing so.

specs:
Intel Core2Duo E6550
P5KPL-CM Mobo
4gb DDR2 RAM
Asus Expedition 1050ti 4gb
Don't laugh HAHAHA

ps: sry for my very awesome english!

You placed a metal hair comb directly on the graphics card while the computer was running?

yep then it jerked a bit then lost display

The moral here is plastic combs and cases are your friends.

And you should not place anything conductive directly on electronics.

The jerk you saw/felt was most likely a short caused by the metal hair comb causing a massive amount of current to flow through parts of the graphics card that shouldn't have that much current.

On the bright side its a perfect time to buy a new computer ... any computer with a PCI-E x16.

If its under warranty then RMA it and just say it stopped working.

If it isn't under warranty then you could try replacing any blown/damaged capacitors on the graphics card if you have a soldering gun and know how to solder.
