Dead GPU motherboard b2 error

[Anglikan]

Hello, I'm new to these forums so I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong area.

I recently bought a GPU (Aorus GeForce GTX 1080 Ti) thinking it was working but when I received it I realized it was dead. no signal comes from the GPU and my bother board throws a lot of codes. the main one is b2
I tried to disassemble the card, clean it up as well as I could and reassemble. still no luck.

does anyone recommend any companies I could possibly send the card into to get it fixed? i cant seem to find a place that is willing to do that. its not like graphics cards are easy to find now a days and I need this Aorus GTX 1080Ti specifically. any help, ideas, or recommendations would be much appreciated.

Aside from simply taking it to a local computer repair shop, The way out of warranty electronics repairs are dealt with generally is the thing is sold on eBay as broken.  Some person who repairs such stuff will buy it and sell it on as “refurbished” the price difference between buy cost and sell cost is the repair person’s payment. It’s not impossible the computer repair shop you go to will also buy and resell such stuff using the eBay method on the side.  If the thing was DOA though you may have some recourse depending on circumstances.
