Found this out by the dumpster this morning. Added rubber washers to the retaining clip on the GPU and she fired right up! Looks like it was dropped and the eject button broke, is that fixable? I didn't have a PS4 yet, just xbone, so I was pretty stoked, just need a controller now. Super simple fix!
