Question I touched my GPU with metal tape measure

[h4ashY_]

I accidentally touched metal to the GPU and it was little "power hit", and it restarted, fan isn't working and gpu doesn't start. it showing me "no video input". How can i fix it if there is a way? I tried removing and replacing a card, clearing CMOS but without result.

GPU: RX 570 Sapphire ITX 4GB

You've probably fried your GPU.

As above, and specially if the system was on!? Most certainly dead.

If you can try it in another PC, that would rule it in or out.

Bigger question is why are you using conductive tools around live equipment?

But, as the others have already said, you've killed it.

I think the OP has likely learnt his lesson. Which is why I avoided rubbing salt in his wound during my reply.

Ok I'm just going to chime in here on your reply. In the future it is best to NEVER place any objects, metal or otherwise in a PC whilst the unit is on or plugged in. For future reference please turn off and disconnect the power cable from your PC before opening the case.

Do you have a thermal camera? If now, I'd suggest borrowing one (can be a CAT smartphone as well) and having a look on the components. Maybe you just shorted a component and it's shorted now OR a fuse is burned.
If you have a multimeter, you mave have a look if you find a SMD fuse that doesn't conduct anymore.

Given the situation, it is highly unlikely the OP is capable of performing any of the suggested tasks.
