Hi! I recently i purchased a gigabyte sniper 3, in order to install it i had to drain the watercooling loop that i had set up on my old board. I drained it fine and once the mobo had been replaced i proceeded to refill, 5 mins into refilling i saw a drop come from a fitting onto my graphics card. i did not have any paper towel there as the loop was fine previously. As far as i could see the liquid only spilt onto the card however after further examination under uv light some tiny droplets managed to seep into the clip on the pci slots. I left the card and motherboard to dry overnight, the next day i dried it further with a hair dryer and compressed air. I dried it until i could not see or soak up any fluid. Once i had assured my self it was dry i plugged it all up and booted. The motherboard works fine, however the card will not emit a display or be detected. I have tried the card in 3 out of the four slots and have had no luck in any of them. My question now would be what do you guys think the problem is, is it the graphics card as liquid leaked on that however I DO NOT have any drivers installed but i cant install them as the card wont be detected or do you think it is the mother board as i found tiny amounts of liquid on 2 of the slots.
Extra info:
