I just sent in my 8800GTS 512 for RMA due to overheating issues as I was tired of having to runthe fan at 80-100% during lan parties to avoid crashes. I don't have anything this weekend but the weekend after there is another lan party so I'm curious how long it typically takes for turn around. Anyone do a RMA with eVGA recently and can tell me?
Last Q... what do you think they will replace the 8800GTS 512 with? If they don't have a refurb of the same card around I'm worried I'll get back a 9800GTX. Unless it's the '+' version it looks like they require dual 6pin PCIe power connectors and the pansy OCZ 500w I have in the lanbox only has one. I guess a 9800GT would work but isn't that a step down from the card I'm sending in?
Thanks!
