My 4090 just exploaded while on DESKTOP 30 mins after instaling latest drivers??

My PNY 4090 just utterly exploded, pop sound pc turned off, turned pc back on crackle and smoke coming from near rear end of the card, smells like burning. Capacitor near the back poped, how are PNY on RMA? am i fcked as i watercooled it?, There was no OC on the card no custom bios, nothing changed with the state of the card in the last 4 months only driver updates. 99% sure this has nothing to do with the custom block.

U can see from the above image the capacitor in question.
What would you guys do?

Update: Pny installed the capacitor with the polarity reversed! hence the boom.. utterly unreal..
