Changed my mind, downvote the savage. The board was salvageable, propably just a heat treatment around 170°c might have been enough to let the card work for some time afterwards. I did this with my gtx970 3 times. From no output, to running just fine, even over locked, just need to make sure all balls underneath aren't cracked and this temp is usually enough to make them expand and make contact again, without desolderong all the minor components.
