GTX 1080ti problem

I recently recieved a very unique GPU. it is a blood splattered (literally) GTX 1080ti armor from MSI with 2 fins snapped off on the left fan. The main problem is that when I first got it it wont post at all, then i replugged the GPU and display port decided to post and I was able to squeeze a quick game of PUBG before the uneven fanblade started to cause a mini earthquake in my PC. Now that display port works but I cant get the HDMI to work and I have two monitors. Any suggestion on a fix?

 

p.s I typed this on my phone and I didnt spell check or whatsoever

In all seriousness, you could shop around for another cooler for said 1080Ti as long as the screws match up.

Did you buy this used?

I was told that if I can fix it, I can buy it at 40% of the original price. Right now I am just trying to fix it. Regarding the fan blades imma just put an AIO on it via the g12 bracket. (which both will be given to me for free) He already got a new 1080ti trio by msi

if you're removing the cooler anyway ever thing seems fine but that messed up HDMI likely has no fix but component level repair by a expert or someone who is skilled at that. or just steady hands....

nothing seems to be broken, the slot arent bent or anything I dont think its a hardware thing might be a software problem. either way imma try dvi and the other display port

ya testing is the only way to try except for driver updates...... i would just think if that's not the case there is probably no fix for the HDMI without costly repair

It could be something to do with a bad bios perhaps the guy flashed a diff bios on it. I know when I had my gtx 1080 I flashed it to unlock the voltage limits and that disabled the hdmi port. I'd try taking a look and seeing if the bios says asus or another company. If not just get an adapter or use another port

could be an issue, he just upgraded his whole PC build and the 1080ti seemed to be the only thing that doesnt want to work but according to him no port works at all
