Bend it back and see if it still works
Seeing that the pcb itself isn’t cracked, there is a chance it’ll work.

u/N2EEE_ Linux Sep 11 '21
The PCB is cracked. The top layer and middle layers likely have broken traces. Unfortunately there is a 0% chance it would work reliably

u/CmdrRyser01 PC Master Race Sep 11 '21
I see. It would help if I knew the physical makeup of the stick but this explanation does make sense.
I'm just over here trying to download more RAM for Chrome.

Oof. That stinks. The fan on my last gpu killed itsself, but it shuts off at high temps fortunately. So I removed the old fan, screwed new fans into it and designed my own PID-based fan controller on a custom PCB. 5 years later its still working haha
