Found an old 8800GTS in a lot of cards I bought off eBay. It turns out back then XFX has this thing called a "Double Lifetime Warranty" which means its covered for the life of the original owner and the second owner. This card was built over a decade ago. There RMA system doesn't even recognize the cards serial number so I actually had to send a message to there help desk to register it. I thought you guys might find this interesting as a look into the integrity of a company that is known for there lifetime warranty's that at one point was there main appeal. There's no reason they shouldn't accept an RMA on this card if the theory of a lifetime warranty is to hold up and be literally interpreted.
On going report from this line on:
8/6/17: Sent message to XFX Helpdesk to register the cards serial number so I can request an RMA. Haven't heard back as of original posting.
8/7/17: Messaged XFX Rep/Employee /u/Markareg
8/7/17: Above mentioned rep has private messaged me and commented on this post. Have sent pictures of card and requested information.
