GFX broke after unpluging while PC was on

While troubleshooting my new mobo, I accidentally knocked out Palit GTX 650 from PCI-E slot. I turned off mobo and put card back, but now it not detected and cooler spins at 100%. Is there way to fix it or is it dead for good?

Have you tried putting the card in a different pice slot?

Have you tried clearing the cmos?

Can you test the gpu in another system?

Depending on how exactly you accidentally knocked the card out, it's possible you damaged the PCIe slot. I find it unlikely at best that the card would be good to go, and only the slot was damaged, if this is the case,  however give a different slot a try if you can.

Outside of that, it's very likely that the card is dead.

PCI-E intact, card died on new mobo, plugged back into main rig, it spun at max and wasn't detected, mobo LED showed PCI-E error
