780 lightning possibly dead?

Hey guys. so ive had a rather sad occurance today and im not overly sure what happened but im pretty sure one of my lightning my be dead, allow me to explain.

 

Lastnight/this morning i was playing arma 3 with a friend and screwing around with choppers when suddenly my computer just went to a black screen and lost all signal.. ok im running surround with a finicky overclock not a huge deal reset change some settings and try again.. Well once it booted back into windows i noticed that the led's only lit up on one of the two cards which obviously had me worried.. by that time i was exhausted so i shut down and went to bed to deal with it today.

 

Today i found that windows will not detect the second card, i took the waterblock off and re mounted the air cooling for testing purposes and found that the fans spin at max speed and since its not seen by the system i cannot change it. Ive tried different psu's as well as different ports on my psu since its modular as well as different slots on the mobo (even though its a brand new z97 mpower purchased this morning but thats another issue altogether) to no avail. i also tried the alternate ln2 bios which usually forces all the leds on the card to stay lit solid and they wouldnt light. When i hit the power button in the system i see the lights flicker a few times then they turn off. Is there something i have missed and by some slim chance the card is still alive or am i screwed?

Sounds like it's busted especially after trying all that, which is really strange how it happened all of a sudden mid game . At least you have the other whilst you rma it.

oh well, i might order another while i rma it and just do triple sli when it comes back, i run nvidia surround anyway so the extra muscle would be nice
