I have two really old cards, One is PCI and the other is first gen PCI-E x16.
They're both in working order as far as I know though. I live in Nevada so shipping would probably be quick.

Yeah GPUs at are extremely difficult to fix. And to the op o feel this might be a waste of your time. GPUs work on microscopic levels and you can't just learn about them simply by looking at them and knowing where each connection goes. There's plenty of YouTube tutorials however. I remember one of the tutorials used Minecraft Redstone as an explanation and that really helped bring the point across that the stuff happening in GPUs is essentially to an extent, mechanical

Finally my Santa hat doesn't look out of place
