can you take a picture from the side instead of top down? it looks like a coil. which is VERY easily replaced with a little soldering knowledge.

thankfully it doesnt look like theres too many sensitive components that could be damaged by replacing this. ( some times with hot air you can damage surrounding SMD components)

the hardest part is going to finding a picture or schematics to figure out what coil it is that needs to be replaced.

you can also send this off to a reputable repair shop so they can figure out.

It is an inductor. I would use it as long as you can. If it disconnects no harm is done. The card just stop working and then you can have it repaired. Odds are it is usable.

Ithink when the gpu go heavy it need more power n that cause the quit maybe?
