No signal from GPU

[one-sixty]

Alright so one day I was just using my computer as normal and I spotted a small hex key on the GPU so (this may have been stupid of me) but I took it off while the PC was still on. A few seconds after I took it off the GPU started to freak out the fans where spinning full blast and the monitor didnt pick up the signal so I quickly shut it down. Now when I try and boot the monitor won't pick up it says no signal. The fans on the GPU are still spinning, and my keyboard and mouse are working and the lights in my PC are on, CPU fan working, everything checks out. I've tried new cables and switched the ports but nothing happens. Any fixes? Thank you

Was the hex key on a bare PCB or a backplate? Try plugging your monitor into your motherboard's video out to try using the iGPU on your 7600. If nothing else, contact the manufacturer of your gpu and say it shat the bed.

uh... try this https://translate.google.com/ I just told you to try the iGPU to see if maybe you have a memory issue, or maybe a power issue. I once had a dead stick of ram that caused very similar behavior.

You got it to POST on the iGPU? If that's the only thing you changed, then it's reasonable to believe your GPU is dead. Sorry, that really sucks I hope your warranty covers it

uh...  what cables have you tried connecting the GPU with, and what cable are you using with the iGPU?

I tried my brothers VGA cable but I'm using the same HDMI cable I used before, I think I may have fried the card or messed with one of the electronics on the PCB

My thinking is if you killed one thing on the PCB, the whole thing would be dead. I wouldn't trust that VGA cable at all. Is there another HDMI port on the card you can try?
