    a dark pin on connector of RTX 3080

    Hi guys.I got myself used RTX Aorus Xtreme 3080.I have not yet tested it, due to waiting for PSU with 3 PCI-E cables and GPU holder.
    However today on sunlight I noticed that on one of the connectors one of pins is in darker color then the rest of us.
    Paranoia hit me that maybe card is damaged.
    I don't know if you can see on pics (on pics looks like one of the pins is missing, but is it not, it is dark and covered with shade).
    I tried to zoom in but get blurry pics.
    If you can not see,I will try to picture it again.
    What to do now?Could it be potential issue that card is damaged?
    Though seller told me card is okay, but I don't trust him.
    Dunno if you can see on pics, but in reality it looks like that one of the pins is darker color.

    First, power up the board to see if it displays an image. If there is an image on the monitor, replace the faulty connector.

      even with that pin cutout card will still make picture and work without problems

        Where to find a very small fpc connector 0.3mm between 2 pins ?
        by corrize
        Hello, I search this connector (oxydated).
        It's a fpc zif low profile connector. It come from camera sensor, it is very small : 0.3mm between 2 pins.
        I ordered 2 from Aliexpress called « 0.3mm pitch » but one was 0.5mm between 2 pins and the other 0.6mm. In fact « 0.3mm pitch » seams to be the pad width and not the distance between 2 pins.
        I can't find it. The other websites like mouser dont show the datasheet, and I can't check if it is 0.3mm between 2 pins ?


        Do you know how to find this connector please ? What is the exact name for find it ?

        Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
        by Tynan Dill
        I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

        Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

        I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

        The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

        With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.
