Short and simple - today I was idiot (more than usual).
Subject: Dell/nVidia 690 GTX
Story - got this beautiful piece of engineering for low price in great condition and got distracted during cleaning & changing paste ending up with overheating after 3-4 min of testing and ... it's dead Jim. Beeeeeep bip bip bip bip.
Tried to troubleshoot it (stopped at shorts testing, couldnt bare the sadness and anger), but I decided to seek for some wisdom here.
I've marked mosfets and "pex8747 ba80gbc" SLI thingy on the attached photo where I forgot to put thermal pads. I would really appreciate if someone drop advice or two on what to test; if not, lets this be testament of "multitasking, what could possibly go wrong".
