Hey, I took a huge risk, buying a broken MSI GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming X Trio
there are some PCIe decoupling caps missing, but also 2 components that I have been unable to identify yet. maybe somebody here can help me with it?
I attached a photo of a good board from the interwebs, marking the area of missing components and also a photo that marks the 2 mystery components.
one of them is most likely a resistor. it would be great if someone knows the value of it. otherwise the plan is to solder on a 20 turn potentiometer and try different values from high to low resistance. until it hopefully starts working.
but for the white component.. I have no idea what it could be. an inductor perhaps? or maybe just a LED? I can´t find better photos of this area of the card. maybe there are even some markings on the components. or somebody just has a dead card and can desolder and measure the marked parts?
also, if somebody has totally destroyed his or her card beyond the repair, I may be interested in buying a slice of that PCB
