don't have a photo sorry, its a near screw at the top left of the gpu the scratch is less the half a cm it looks like it have gone through two threads , I'm not sure if it has severed them, is there anything i can do to help the situation?

Try it right now and tell us whether it is still working. If not, try contacting the GPU's manufacturer website for support.

i installed it in my system, it seemed to be working ok until i tried to install the drivers now my windows wont boot the fans speed up anytime i try to sign in and my screen goes blank , i may have to wipe my ssd and install window again, i have had to reinstall windows 8.1 (oem version) and i still can't install drivers iv tried drivers on the disc that came with it and drivers online, is it possible this is just a software problem?
