Can you take a properly lit picture? The card is basically in the dark.

Just at a quick glance looks good to me, your issue could be something else maybe ram or something. Get a better picture, all that is really visible right now is a dusty dark GPU

I did lots of research on it and I could not figure it out so I came here but I’ll take a better pick of it

It's worth asking what type of card that is, and how you acquired it.

How is it so dusty if you just got it from Newegg? Did you buy a refurb?

I don’t know but it was a long time I had to wait but I’ll see ab returning it thanks for your help

[Murasaki]

I know this is silly but just incase I'll ask: Did you plug in the 8pin connector to the card?

[Kilrah]

And you didn't run it without the cooler, right? Why would you remove the cooler on something you just bought? Faulty->return. Unless you can't return, but then that would be a questionable purchase.

Newegg are notorious assholes about returns anyway, especially on refurbs. They'd have found a way to refuse it regardless. OP just made their lives really easy.
