hello everyone
i was using xfx 6600gt but a couple of days ago a very small component labeled C89 near the jack of the fan melted
now is that covered under guarantee/warantee if no
where should i take the card to get it repaired (address of xfx service center)
preferably in Delhi or Kolkata Kolkata is nearest metro
a pic of the burnt component is added together with a pic of the card to get it better
