So I got a Zalman VF700-Cu LED the other day to overclock my Sapphire X800Pro a bit. I took of the fan/heatsink fine but then I was removing these cheap aluminium memory heatsinks I had put on my card a while back (stupid impulse buy that didn't help any) and I got the the last one which was on there good so I took my time with it and slowly got it off. Then I turned it around and the memory chip was still stuck too the heatsinkstill! And not attach to the video card like it should be!!!
I almost cried, I don't know everything bout PC hardware but I'm guessing it ain't going back on. So my first question is who here knows bout warranties on VGA cards? I submitted a ticket to Sapphire and said I was cleaning it and part of the cloth fibers caught on it and popped it off. My second question is do you think there is any chance of me getting it replaced or should I just go buy a new one? Come the 17th I would have had this card for a year! GRRR I was so close too
Any help or opinions greatly appreciated, Thanks
