It's not unheard - of for graphics cards that have burned out to be successfully repaired. However, it's an incredibly rare occurrence to fix a card that has a large, burnt - through hole. Recently, Brazilian computer aficionados and repair gurus, Sidnelson and Paulo Gomes, pulled off this extraordinary achievement. Leveraging an AMD RX 580 graphics card, they managed to revive an RTX 5070 Ti that had suffered severe burn damage, leaving a sizable hole in its power - supply section. During the repair process, they completely re - engineered the power - supply circuit. They skillfully bypassed the damaged parts and made extensive modifications to the circuit. In the end, their efforts paid off, and the RTX 5070 Ti was able to undergo low - load testing.
