I need to get the RGB pins replaced on my Gigabyte 2080ti OC GC. They got bent fitting the water block and snapped off. Noob mistake. Will be selling the card when my 3080 arrives but want to get that repaired first. Any recommendations?

Probably not worth it. I got quoted £120 if replace an USB3 header.

2080's are selling for 350. I don't see you getting much less because rgb's not working.

Just sell it broken, it'll not reduce the price much. Not enough to make paying to get it repaired worthwhile.

Yes its just aesthetic luckily nothing much lost (if it was me nothing lost!).

If it were me buying from you that would be a bonus as I really hate RGB. The downside is that if the card is still in warranty they may reject it for physical damage even if it's been RMA'd for something completely unrelated.
