    Likely, but you'd just be wasting time and money. But how are you sure that all the components are intact? Damage with semiconductors can very well be invisible from the outside.
    And yes, you can always test it at your own risk. Whether or not it'll damage the motherboard depends entirely on the card's damage.

    fiber glass pen will clean any residue on contacts. 
    if you don't have one, a harder eraser should be able to clean it - isopropyl alcohol or acetone (nail polish remover) are solvents that can help soften residue for removal. 
     
    "Something probably decomposed" is a problem.   You could have a shorted mosfet or something that can handle high temperature so would show no signs of failure, but as it got shorted other components along the input voltage path like filtering inductors or fuses may have burned as they could not handle the high short circuit current. 
     
    Posting good quality pictures would help investigate this further.
     
     
    EDIT:  that looks like copper corrosion from humidity, water ... not burn , over current effects 
    clean the whole video card with isopropyl alcohol  or selectively with acetone (acetone can wash away the printed stuff off capacitors or some components, it's stronger than isopropyl alcohol)
     
    If the traces are broken due to corrosion in theory you can use a sharp blade or glass fiber pen to scrape off the silkscreen and other insulation off traces and the pads and then solder small bridges or tiny wires between contacts and traces.

    Well, so far I don't encoounter any BSOD on my cpu & board.

    As for it's VRM capability :

    I have a couple of Asus Strix boards.
     
    They both can handle my 5900X using PBO/CO and 4 sticks of B-Die with no problems.. My newer one came with an Asus Hyper M.2 card.. its pretty neat. It also has the same VRM setup as the Dark Hero.. its pretty tight. I am running 3x M.2's and have room for 3 more. Not using SATA atm.. but there if I need it.

    Your wording sounds like a budget x570. I'd take a great b550 over a budget x570 any day. (In fact I did. Also running a b550 mortar)

    I want to sue YouTube for my Bricked motherboard. I was watching a tutorial on YouTube for enabling TPM 2.0 and installing Windows 11 on a Gigabyte B450m DS3H board.
    I wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 on my PC, but the setup kept telling me my system doesn't meet the minimum requirements. The guy in tutorial changed the TPM setting to enable and also changed secure boot platform key settings, so I followed the steps and behold, my motherboard is now bricked!
    I wish I could've seen the dislikes on that tutorial or read the description before attempt.
    Tell me how do I reach YouTube to get my motherboard's worth of money back or you guys give me good motherboard recommendations for micro ATX form factor pc.
    My current PC specs are:
    CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X 
    GPU: Gigabyte Windforce AMD RX580 8GB OC

    A cmos clear should fix any pcie slot disabling
    i suspect that theres something you did wrong honestly, either you did something in the bios on accident, or you didnt do something right with the cmos clear

    It should, it resets all the settings to the settings you would have right after you bought the motherboards

    That tutorial did everything right it seems from a quick look at it

    You just need to reset the bios to stock settings.
    You need to remove this battery from the motherboard

    then you need to unplug the power supply from the wall
    now wait for about 5-10 minutes, and go back to your pc
    plug it back in, and put the battery back.
    It should boot

    I'm sorry, but I stopped right here. I can't help you beyond saying that if you plan to sue YouTube, good luck. If someone shows you the best way to burn down a house then you go out and burn your own house down by giving it a try, you don't get to sue them either.
     
    Have you tried resetting CMOS? Pulling the CMOS battery? Anything else that will definitely fix it? It's really, really hard to get a motherboard to let you brick it in the stock BIOS. If you have done so, I mean, good thing it's Prime Day.
  16. Agree
    keshavcolonel reacted to Needfuldoer in YouTube Tutorial Bricked My Motherboard   
    Good luck with that.
     
    Try unplugging your PC from the wall and removing the coin cell battery from its holder on the motherboard, then leaving it for 10-15 minutes. Once that time's up, put the battery back in, plug it back in, and try powering it up. That should clear all BIOS user settings back to the factory defaults. Unless you did something like flash a "patched" or "unofficial" BIOS, that should revive a soft-bricked PC.
