Yesterday i was playing call of duty 4 suddenly screen goes dark and my gpu (GTX 1050ti Gaming X) Caught Fire Near Fan Connector Fortunately My PC Is Still Can MSI Do Anything About This Problem?
Only if under warranty
>>How to contact MSI.<<
A local electrical shop may be able to fix but I would not bet on it damage looks to be several layers deep
If not under warranty you have the option to sell on eBay as a Parts only non-working GPU
Or toss to landfill

from the looks of that location on the PCB there is nothing there at all so it will have been a short Circuit inside the Board Itself so that thing is very Dead as it would need a whole new board so its a total write off as that is probably going through the entire board from the back to the front.

What PSU are you using? Other than possibly fault on the card, PSU may also be the culprit and there is an odd chance it’ll happen again with a new card.
