My MSI RTX 5070 Ti died after 9 months. Burnt PCB. Does anyone know why?

As the title says, I built this PC about 9 months ago with a brand-new RTX 5070 Ti. A few days ago, my PC suddenly shut down while sitting idle. The store I bought it from confirmed that the RTX 5070 Ti was the problem.

I sent the card to an MSI service center in my city, but they refused to honor the warranty and wouldn't repair it either. They didn't even tell me why it burned out.

Does anyone have any idea what could have caused this? I know the card is probably beyond repair, but I'd really like to know what happened so I can avoid the same issue in the future. T.T

My build:

  • GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 16G inspire 3X OC
  • PSU: Thermaltake TOUGHPOWER GT 850W
  • Mobo: ASUS TUF Gaming B760M-PLUS wifi
  • CPU: Intel Core i5 14600KF

I used a Cooler Master Vertical GPU Mount Kit V3, but I removed it after about 2–3 months.
I used original PSU cables, no OC/undervolt.
