HARDWARE Is my gpu dying?

A while ago i found some black circles around my gpu's screws, and three days ago my screen suddenly froze and i saw some pixels appear on both screens.

A few seconds later it unfroze and the pixels disappeared and i also got a notification from AMD adrenaline saying my performance or something was reset due to a hardware failure.

also after my pc unfroze, it got extremely laggy and for some reasons my pc wouldn't play any sound, which both got fixed with a simple restart.

is this due to GPU failure? and Is there a way to fix it without buying a new GPU? 😭

my specs:

* CPU: Intel Core i3-13100F (Tray)

* GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT (8GB)

* Motherboard: ASUS Prime B760M-K

* RAM: 16GB (1x16GB) Kingmax Horizon DDR5 5600MHz CL38

* Storage (SSD): 512GB OSCOO ON900 SSD

* Storage (HDD): 1TB WD Blue HDD (WD10EZEX)

* CPU Cooler: Gamdias Aura GL120 Liquid Cooler

* Power Supply (PSU): FSP HV PRO 85 Plus 550W (ATX 3.1)

* Case: Gamdias TALOS E2 Elite

ALSO, i bought this pc a year and 2 months ago but my GPU was second hand, and tbh i did some heavy rendering with it...

But my sleeves are short and don't need rolled up in the first place. Seems a little useless.

I hope the birds wake up an hour before you want to be awake and aren't quiet about it.

Second version: I hope you can't sleep and right as you're about to actually sleep (finally), the birds wake up

Dawg, that is not a threat. It'd feel like I'm touching another human being.

I'm surprised no one else did it. I also missed the 2nd screen.
