Welcome To TechIMO!!
Unfortunately it is highly unlikely that you can fix your graphics card if there is physical damage to the card? Do you have a picture you can post of it?
Are there any physical things broken off it? (ex. Capacitors, mem chips)

Actually I'm curious as to how this happened.
I'm a sucker for these type of disaster stories.

I love it almost as much as I love watching people who don't even know how much RAM they have boast about how much they love computers. A guy in my school is like that. | |

Though I no longer have the packaging that stated the details that I need to make a claim

Was the card bought new or used, and when did you buy it?

So, what is the damage exactly? Can you provide a picture? Or detailed description? | |
