    Graphic card apparently dead.

     
    If something slips into pci slot and cover few connectors (and I turn on PC)can graphic card survive that so I need just to clean slot? Now showing just wierd lines but fan is live. I could boot but can't recognize any graphic on monitor.

    Well to clarify here, what exactly went into the slot? If anything metallic, or of course, liquid it's going to be a huge issue.

    Its not metalic its like... I can't explain. Mixture of dust and something dark yellow. It was on graphic card and due melting sliped into slot. I think that CPU fan prduce it, anyway it can't connect pins just cower them and I'm wondering is that can damage card. Its stiff and hard to clean so ill be on internal graphic and pray for my gpu.
