It's your own fault for gutting it and screwing it up. You should have RMA'd that thing. It'd still be under warranty.

He didn't register it with XFX within 30 days, so no warranty for him.
He told me he did.
I said I did the other day, not within the time :\
:/
... you can register it any time.... I did this for a 7900GT lolOriginally Posted by Freelancer
Nope.
Select North America / Radeon HD and you'll see the following for yourself:
Speaking of warranties and how awesome lifetime ones are when you actually register... Awhile ago one of my GTX 285's failed and I sent it in for RMA, I got a GTX 285 back which failed in just shy of a month. I sent the replacement back for RMA as well and now they're sending me a GTX 470 1.2GB version. I called them up today and explained my situation (I use SLI to power three monitors using Nvidia Surround etc...) and now they are going to take my other GTX 285 and replace it with another GTX 470 1.2GB!If you register the product online at http://www.xfxforce.com/ within 30 days of purchase, your limited warranty will be EXTENDED for the duration of your life. Registration within 30 days of the date of purchase is a condition precedent to receiving the lifetime warranty.***
So since one of my cards failed, and the replacement they sent me failed, now I'm' getting a free upgrade from GTX 285's to GTX 470's.
Now, here's a question for you guys... My motherboard only support PCI-E 1.0, it didn't bottleneck my SLI GTX 285's. Do you think it will bottleneck my GTX 470's in SLI? If it does I will be on the hunt for a 780i chipset motherboard, they support PCI-E 2.0 and DDR2 + my 775 socket processor.

*** The limited warranty for XFX Limited Edition graphics cards lasts for a period of two years and is non-transferable.
But yeah.
