YES!!!! I had to RMA my eVGA 6800 GT, and the replacement arrived today...they sent a 7800 GS!! So basically in exchange for my computer being down for 2 weeks I got an upgrade!


I've said it before and I'll say it again....eVGA products only last about 11 months but they take care of you when they die!


edit: UPDATE: OMFG it's soooooooooooooooo quiet....you can't hear any noise comin out of my computer now. previously the 6800GT was at a dull roar. This thing is next to silent!!

when you figure in that I spent about 109 bucks to get a 3800 X2 to upgrade my 3500+ I was using, I just got like 2 or 3 extra years out of this computer for like 100 bucks

Lucky... I'm still running a 5 year old machine with a P4, 1GB of RAM and an AGP 6600GT. I need a job so I can buy a new rig. :(

My evga 6600 is now two years old and other than the fan going bad in january this year(which they sent me a replacement hs and fan assembly, nqa, without even requiring me to send the card back to them by RMA) is still working fine.
