21 | The 3 best options for resale value appear to be EVGA, MSI, and Asus. EVGA has just revised their policy and appear to be the best option. | MSI supports overclocking, but the 3rd year carries a fee. Asus has the 3 years, but doesn't support overclocking. | ||||||||||||||||||
22 | *E You are also welcome to use an aftermarket fan or waterblock as long as you return it to stock condition before sending it in for RMA. | |||||||||||||||||||
23 | *X* we recommend that you contact XFX prior to any modifications so that we can update your profile and product registration to avoid potential issues with warranty support. http://xfxforce.com/en-us/help/support/WarrantyInformation.aspx | |||||||||||||||||||
24 | EVGA COMMENTS | Now all cards have a default 3 year warranty. | AR have a limited lifetime warranty - If registered within 30 days of purchase. | We do not void a warranty if you overclock the card, that's why we offer precision and ELEET. | You are also welcome to use an aftermarket fan or waterblock as long as you return it to stock condition before sending it in for RMA. | http://www.evga.com/articles/00671/ | ||||||||||||||
25 | http://www.evga.com/support/warranty/ | All products must be returned in its original condition. Products received by EVGA for replacement that include 3rd-party attachments (CPU heatsink backplate, memory chip heatsinks, etc) will have all attachments removed and discarded. EVGA holds the discretion to return the product to the sender if necessary. | The product must be returned to EVGA in the original factory configuration and condition. All aftermarket modifications must be reversed before sending in the product for replacement. | |||||||||||||||||
26 | Zotac | Apparently Zotac has said that as long as you have the original receipt (but even if you aren't the original owner), they will RMA the card. ***NEEDS VERIFICATION*** | Their lifetime warranty has a major caveat however, they call lifetime the time they "produce" a card. That can be only a few years! | |||||||||||||||||
