Hey !
I got this ASUS 1070 Ti, when I turn it on I get "Please power down and connect the PCIe power cable..."
The back side of the card was very dirty and has some signs of corrosion, I work at an Electronic factory so I have every thing needed for repairs, I got the card cleaned and re-soldered any bad pads found.
I understand the the INA 3221 chip is responsible for voltage monitor on the card, I replaced it - still the same.
btw, all the voltages I expect to see are there, mem,gpu,pcie,5v,1.8v ...
I would love some help here, as I understand it the the card does not start normal start up for some reason.
Thanks !

Is it an 8-pin PCI-E power connector? Given that its the same number of power pins as a 6-pin, and just 2 extra grounds, see if one of the ground pins is being used to sense the 8-pin plug being connected, and if there is a faulty joint, or visible cracked trace. No specific guidance on how to diagnose, as I'm not sure what a typical implementation is for them, but I do know at least some cards can tell if a 6 or 8 pin is plugged in.

It has 1x8pin PCI-E power connector, there no cracks, the card is like new on the gpu side, it is just the back side that suffer from liquid attack...
I source reason for the problem is the liquid that got spilled on the back, I tried to take care of all the visible corrosion but I something is still not right.
