Re: gtx 970 gigabyte windforce
That looks nasty. No real way of knowing "what lies beneath".
Start with removing it, hope you can save the pads and take measurements.
The low side MOSFET to the right of the burnt one seems to have a bulge.

I received the board as a "souvenir", but from the first analysis it was full of dust and lint, never maintained, for sure.
The exact model is GV-N980G1 Gaming-4GD rev 1.0.
The board starts with the fans running full, the blue Windforce LED is on, but it doesn't give any image at all, and the GPU is cold.
I moved on to disassembly and cleaning, unfortunately for some time I haven't been able to keep a better photo device handy and the pictures are not great.
I quickly identified an area with 2 oxidized resistors, R61/R64, and after carefully cleaning the 2 resistors...01-25-2025, 07:14 AM -
Hi,
I discovered a strange behaviour of GIGABYTE GA-H110M-S2 board.
General test conditions:
- Tested with Core i5 6500 and Core I7 6700K - no difference
- Default BIOS settings, but tried also altering several memory setting - does not change anything
What is wrong:
With BIOS F1 and F2 the board normally POST's and boots to Windows 11 with 2 x Patriot Viper Steel PVS416G440C9K RAM (4400MHZ, Samsung B-Die chips)
When BIOS upgraded to anything above F2 (ie. F20-F27b) the board POST stucks after 3 Debug Codes on Code C2... -
More eBay specials: this time a Gigabyte GP-P450b 450W ATX PSU for $8 with free S&H. Listed “For part/not working”, as usual. Showed up in a beat up EVGA box without any padding… but that's understandable given the total price. PSU made it out fine without damage. It's a non-modular (yay!), pretty modern-day looking PSU with a black paint and all black cables (meh, not my favorite, but figure it's good to keep a few of these in case I do need one for a more modern PC build, just so my old gray boxes don't look too odd in there.)
And a shot of the label:...
