820-3330-B is there any hope for this guy?

Hey all. Got this board come in...

This one got a hole in the PCB - gone pretty deep.

First time I seen this.

My question is: should i even bother? wouldnt all the traces inside be gone/many broken lines?
What would you guys do with something like this? Donor pile?

Thanks

High chance 12.6V made it to the GPU, since Q8930 blew up.

However you can isolate PPVIN_S5_HS_GPU_ISNS from PPBUS_G3H at R5410 and run wires everywhere. You'll need a new home for Q8930 as wires need to run to this FET.

If you do achieve this you'll need luck the GPU wont need to be replaced.

I would pass on this,

thanks for that. sounds like too much work... its going to the donor pile

Nope this is a pile of shit.
