Well, asking for a friend 🤦♂️ For real tho, I can’t believe I did this mistake. I am usually really paranoid and careful about pc hardware… Now I learned how to remove the cable properly, but the thought of damaging GPU just makes me really stressed. I used the PC and played games for a couple of hours after the “accident” and everything seems fine. The cable is also still working fine, and the ports are still working properly. But the thing that scares me is the thought of “What if I damaged GPU permanently and made its life much shorter but I dont know yet?”

Yes if you pulled hard enough
Damage that particular port maybe, but kill the GPU itself very unlikely.
Unless you pulled it so hard it tore out of your PC, you’re likely fine.
