I have a EVGA GTX 285 purchased through RMA (upgrade). No problems at all with the process. Got card within a week starting the RMA. Have the spec required equipment in your computer to run these high end cards and do not overclock to the extreme.
Can u blame them? by: Anonymous on 11/24/2009
Without getting into boring details, EVGA and MSI RMA experiences I had recently were both sadly identical, and of course they were for Nvidia GFX cards.

I had to issue dual RMA's on both cards, and pay for shipping both times (EVGA never sent promised pre-paid shipping label... accident?)

Long story short, there are A LOT of defective Nvidia cards, and the ones that do work barely make any money, so all these poor AIB's have to juggle cards and give the end-user the run around.

With EVGA being exclusive to NVidia right now, and with Nvidia cards exploding constantly, how can u blame them?

They gotta stay in business...

I never OC’ed my graphics card, as far as my build being substandard, the same rig has worked flawlessly with an Asus card. This is a comment section so it should be no surprise to you that people leave comments…what a novel concept. As I said originally, “it’s my opinion” that EVGA cards “suck” at the very least the one I purchased sure did and the fact EVGA has reduced its warrantee would seem to indicate EGVA lacks confidence in its cards also. Now as for you anger issues, I would suggest you see a physiatrist to help you with that.
Shitload of idiots posting comments before this one by: Anonymous on 11/23/2009
What the fuck is wrong with you people?!? You are buying NVIDIA furnaces from EVGA and you complain?!? Go buy somewhere else, who gives a shit about your dead card which you fried by overclocking it in your shitty little midi tower case. I've seen more than enough people buying expensive GFX card and skimping on all other components. Fuck off already, and learn to build computers, I had several EVGA cards and all of them still work. Don't blame NVIDIA's crap on EVGA.

FYI, you don't have to buy from EVGA in order to get warranty through them. You just have to buy from an authorized retailer...

Nowhere in their warranty does it say that they require it to be bought through them.

EVGA = EPOX 2.0

P.S.

that was 95 core temp under full gaming load

Maybe eVGA would still offer Lifetime warrenty if cooling wasn't such a serious issue. how bout adding $10 of cooling materials (& $30 of end-user cost) so peeps are raving about superior quality & stability, instead of raving about how their butts hurt so much!!!

Received a eVGA 7600GT agp DOA from an end-user who didn't register (or know to register). He still had the receipt from the store that he purchased it from. I read the fine-print on the eVGA limited-lifetime warrenty and was shocked to discover that eVGA will only honor it's warrenty WHEN YOU PURCHASE DIRECTLY FROM EVGA! Needless to say, I'm not advising he potentially throw away $25 in shipping. The HS/Fan lacked mass so badly. Replaced crap capacitors & blown MOSFET, added 1/4 pound of heat sink(s) and VOILA! it doesn't go above 70degC inside the closed case (95degC before w. stock HS/fan!!!) He says he will never to buy eVGA again cause his butt still hurts!
Lifetime warrenty my ass, Limited warrenty maybe.
B Stock by: Anonymous on 11/20/2009
They made me jump through hoops (photop.jpg of invoice) for a RMA even though I registered the card when bought. So they try hard to not honor warranty.I also bought a "B stock" video card directly from EVGA and it only had a 90 warranty. I did save $20 so that is the trade off. Time to start buying XFX or Vision Tek as they are the last lifetime cards.

Greg is pretty butt-hurt, I agree.
I hate EVGA by: Greg442 on 11/20/2009
I have a dead EVGA graphic card, its my opinion that EVGA sucks, just like ECS motherboards. I'll never buy another evga or ecs product, hell I wouldn't even accept them if they were free. Yep I'm pretty butt-hurt about the whole thing still.
