I mean, no? Unless you are being a moron bending the board or scratching it. It's not like they are fused together.

Ok it's that I want to play games better and what should I clean it off with and I can't remember what's my TIM removal but it's rubbing alcohol 50% I think

That would work fine. Just let it dry for a bit. Just make sure you have decent TIM to put back on it.

I guess? I have no idea how good it is but i guess it would work. Just make sure it has enough.

He's working on that. But he still needs to be able to game while he waits, and his only other alternative is a funky laptop with an i3 and iGPU. 

Then I'd use the funky laptop and do whatever gaming I still could (admittedly it helps in my case that I play a ton of RimWorld), but I would not trust this PSU.

 

A 450 Watt PSU should be able to run a typical gaming system with a GTX 770 at factory settings. That system should draw well under 400 Watts at load, even in something like FurMark. The fact that it can't suggests to me that this is more than just a simple matter of output vs. demand, and that undervolting the card isn't really addressing the underlying problem.

I tried a Cinebench OpenGL it didnt get into where I see the cars moving around before it crashed and i have no OC on it what so ever

I think this just underscores my point. This doesn't sound like a particularly heavy workload, and thus probably not even a very high power draw. So I don't necessarily agree that undervolting the card is the solution.

The problem could indeed be the power supply. But if it can't even handle a load like this, then I worry it's in pretty bad shape. A healthy 450 Watt power supply should do what you're trying to do. If it were my own hardware, the solution I would trust is a new power supply.
