Hi, If you know its’ value and replace it with like value it might be worth a try, if the resistor gets hot switch off quick. Bypassing it might cause more damage. Is the power supply sufficient for the card >600W? The card requires 250W on the PCIe power supply from the PSU

Use your multimeter and measure R52. Than purchase that resistor and replace R53 You cannot bypass a resistor since that will cause further damage. Once replaced, you will see if it was the culprit or if there are other issues with the card. I am with @jayeff on that one. Something got the resistor to fail…
