    Lightbulb Broken EVGA 1080 Founders Edition NEED HELP!.

    Hi, i have a Broken EVGA 1080 Founders Edition.
    I purchased it a long time ago and it had a NZXT cooler on it.

    I took the cooler off and got careless screwing it back together, I need to upgrade my toolkit because I didn't have those micro mini screws they are using nowadays.
    I am actually a electrical engineer by trade, but have always done anything and just about everything so i should be the first one to know what I'm doing...
    But with age comes....

    I will post some pictures today. I would love to figure out what i screwed up when i turned one screw with a pair of pliers and the edge caught what looks like some caps or something.
    I will also look at this experience as a learning point, to better understand these new fangled pcb boards.

    Thanks in advance!

    UPDATED! See below...







    EVGA GTX1080 FE Part# 08G-P4-6180-KR

    From what I see ....

    - Q501 (which i think is a transistor) is gone
    - C503 (cap) gone
    - R1035 (resistor?) gone resistor,

    Hmmm where is R1034?, that might be a add to the list or on the other side of the pcb????

    So that is what i see so far

    where is the color code - Bad Boys Rxxx Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly - I learned that back in school in 1977 to remember the color code

    Now off to try to find a schematic.....






    THANKS AGAIN FOR ANY HELP!
