I attempted all possible solutions—stress testing, resetting, cleaning, resetting RAM, updating GPU drivers and BIOS, installing the default BIOS. Everything in the BIOS is functioning correctly. Could a minor scratch or missing C588 pin be causing the issue? If anyone has experience, let me know how to resolve it for my 1050ti GPU.

Absolutely, a missing pin capacitor would fix the issue. It looks like a more serious problem than just a scratch—this appears to be a cut. I wouldn’t be surprised if it broke the circuit.

I don't notice those traces being cut off. The missing part is a capacitor, which isn't too far from a problem. It seems like I might be misinterpreting things, since there aren't any missing pins visible.

On the Zotiac site, a slightly larger pin was mentioned in the spot where the C558 pin was located. There might be a fix available for the scratch issue.
