Why read it and post in here if it's annoying? You could've just ignored the thread and moved on.

Tough luck man... I always avoid buying electronics from other countries, rma can be a pain... But I guess since you're closer to the US it might be easier?

I ordered it in Amazon, but somehow amazon sold me through a seller, that seller has a 7 days max return policy. anyways it seems like after checking everything is tight im not getting blue lines... so far....

still testing.

Im always bitching, only sane thing to do in a twisted fate like this one Very Happy


Update: Sighhhh.... the card overheats (95c) instantly in games, tried some stress tests, started sounding like something was frying! Shutdown, rebooted and at windows after some minutes of monitoring the GPU, shutdown again. Requested a return, ill ship this thing back, something is wrong with it. Sigh... first time returning something from here... lets see what happens.

Are the fans spinning? You haven't locked fan speed on the GPU to low values? Are the fans power cable connected to the card? Have you connected both 6-pin power cables to the card? Do you have an old fan profile from your earlier card running, causing your new card to overheat? Got old overclocking settings running your new card? etc... plenty of things to check out first.

New windows install, All power cables connected, Everything is clean. Something is up with this card. At first it did work in games, but i was hitting 95c! this card is supposed to do MAX 70c under load. And the fan would instantly go to 100%. Then it did that weird sound while stressing it and then the shutdowns. Before it completely stops working in my hands i prefer to ship it back.

RMA is the only choice then.

Amazon.... when i clicked the product they put a Seller there and i didnt notice and his returning policy says 15% restocking fee. How interesting. Sigh. And now my local shipping company is quoting me around 125 US as shipping costs.

Well, fuck.

$125?!?!??!?!?!??!?!?!?!??! in shipping???

Dominican Republic sounds like the most expensive country in the world to live. (Oslo is the worlds most expensive city to live in).

You've been screwed. If it was a third-party seller Amazon doesn't have any responsibility afaik.

Hmmm well i filed a return through amazon's system, the seller agreed again and amazon gave me a "standard refund" whatever that fucking means.

Anyways i got the autorization labels, etc, printed them and went to our Government managed postal service and payed around $30 US for a 3-5 days service. Thats nice.

Problem solved, now i gotta decide what to buy now after i get the refund.

Sad and i was so hyped about using a radeon again. fuck damnit

that's why I never buy anything on amazon that is sold by third party sellers. I always double check if I picked "Sold by Amazon LLC"
