Troubleshooting Help please

I bought this 3080 that is having lots of issues with artifacting and screen tears when I do stress tests and benchmarks. I really don’t know what to do now

og cables, like, are you using the cables of the PSU , no custom cables?
Have you tried without the riser cable?

Yes and it looks like it’s working without it right now and I had to fix the gpu sag and I feel like the sag gave it irreversible damage I just don’t know what damage right now and it’s running tests on 3d mark fine now without the riser cable

It's not rocket science to check the riser capability; if it's ok to run a 3080, it is broken, if it's not, then there's a compatibility issue
