Hello guys, I`m new on this forum. Umm I`ve got this problem on my mind and it kept upseting me for a couple of days thinking about it and I decided to get some clearence on this forum.
So I`ve got my GPU GTX 1060 3gb ARMOR edition about two years ago and a couple of days when I was cleaning my pc (of dust) I notice that the back pcb on the GPU has a little tiny scratch on it and I`m going to attach a picture. My card is working just fine and it hadn`t showed any problems so far (2 times in firestrike, and heavean engine 5 times, no crash, back to back) but I`m still concerned that it might be a long-term thing with this scratch. I dont know guys.. I`m just overthinking stuff im sorry..
I have a few questions and I hope you can answer them.
1.Hypothetically speaking, how would a damaged GPU PCB would function? Would it catch imagine at all at POST? It would`ve freeze or crash?
2.Maybe an experienced one can answer this. Should I worry about that scratch or am I making a big deal out of nothing?
3. The black foil on the PCB is for protection or just fashion?
