You better try running a heavy video game on the gpu first, if it doesn't work then the gpu is damaged, go inside a dark room and use a flash light to look at the back of the graphic card and look for any missing resistors, I'm guessing resistors are peeled from the gpu , I had same issue before and I noticed that a green little resistor has shift or peeled so I use soldering iron and led to fix it back and it works
if there were some missing components it should have given some sort of hardware error or hang / freeze issue like that ?
