Maybe the poor guy wanted to make sure that by the term "using" you didn't refer to having replaced your old paper weight with some new shiny and very green thing ;)

I told him I knew where he lived and would be visiting him if he didn't give me a RMA#, he asked me to provide a copy of the purchase receipt ... :P

Ahh, you have the same problem ... :(. The people from Galaxytech also ask me for a purchase receipt. I have 3 years warranty and the card is less than one year at the market. Why they need now a proof by the purchase receipt?

Usually the Warranty only applies to the Original Buyer of the Video Card/Cards, so they are just insuring your the Original Buyer by asking for a purchase receipt.

Some Companies like BFG have a Lifetime Warranty but to only the Original Buyer, they don't want to be paying a 2'nd or 3'rd owner of the Card for Warranty Service ... ;)

PS: Sapphire has sent me a RMA Form which I've filled out & sent back to another place along with another proof of purchase receipt on the 4850 X2 ... Now I have to go thru the same thing on the RMA Request I turned in this morning on a 4870 Card that quit working too. Still haven't heard anything on that yet.

I'm Sending the EVGA GTX 260 out tommorrow morning too on a RMA. Still testing 5 BFG Cards in another Box to make sure it just wasn't something wrong with the Box they came out of. So far all have gave errors in the Test Box too. Probably ship them out to on a RMA later this week.

Do we have some solution yet to this 260 cards issue?
What has happened, if something?

It seems to be card dependent because I have not had this issue with either of my two cards (yet) ...
