El_Capitan Posted December 19, 2010 Posted December 19, 2010 Go for the ASUS GTX 580, though. Best overclocks I've seen next to the MSI GTX 580. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cjloki Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 damn that's a shame nyt, sorry that happened to you! ...what's gonna happen to the dead one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyt Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Well I've phoned asus but they say since I put on an aftermarket cooler I void the warranty . It's kinda expected though , I knew coolers void the warranty . I've got a friend who wants the 5870 so sorry guys ! I've never really blown a card before this one , Im a bit sad . This was also my first Asus card and no my bad says he doesnt want to get me an Asus card again . I had many cards and nearly all were MSI cards that never blew so he said his getting me this 580GTX. Its got solid capacitors so I think it will give me a little more peace of mind. Im keeping the dead one on my shelf as a reminder to not oc too far ! And I'll also take it to school to show off an expensive paperweight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 That's a shame...did you tell them you changed the cooler?? You should have just reinstalled the stock one and sent 'er in. They should be able to tell unless you originally pulled it off with a crowbar or something Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
