I have noticed that RMAd videocards often come back with poorly-attached heatsinks. I would try carefully removing the heatsink, cleaning the GPU and heatsink base of any thermal paste remnants with rubbing alcohol or lighter fluid, then applying a paper-thin, even layer of thermal paste to the GPU core before securely remounting the heatsink. This can make a pretty big difference.
