    Also anyone who is doing the mod for the thermal pads I would use a antistatic matting to prevent ESD damage as the guide posted above does not mention this.

    Generally RMA are refurbished, but if it's just for the thermal pads they might mod it for you and send the same card back? (just pure speculation on my part) New products aren't generally given for RMAs, but there are exceptions (I think if it fails within 30 days of purchase, or if they don't have any Refurbish products on hand for example that I know of)
     
    Will have to wait for an EVGA rep to answer, to be sure there isn't an exception made however.

    Less than 30 days since purchase - new card.
     
    Greater than 30 days - could be a refurb.

    If this is just a thermal pad install then EVGA might just mod the card you send and send it back. it doesn't take much to apply a couple of thermal pads and redo the TIM - it would take me all of 10 minutes going slow.

    Are classified cards getting thermal pads too? I swear my backplate should not be as hot as it is.
    NM i found the part numbers and the classy is part of it, just ordered my pads.

    Good questions as the new articles I have seen state you will get a new card.  Getting a refurb to replace a 31 day old new card seems kind of crummy.  Any ways I put in the RMA request for my 1070 Black when I read the news a couple days back.  Waiting to hear back so they must be fairly busy.
     
    So my first post in over 4 years I wonder if the site will still remember me?

    Well, I'd purchase it BUT I do not trust having it shipped across the pond to me in the states. With the exchange rate it is a very good price for the card. I wouldn't even know what customs charges (if any would apply) would be either.

    at that price i can guarantee you that it will be sold immediately on the bay, no need to ship to another country. Just dont mention the EVGA thermal problems or no one will buy it.

    They'd better mention it, otherwise someone will buy a card that's about to expire unless it is given the needed thermal pads, and they won't have a warranty for it.
     
    They should sell it only after installing the new pads, themselves, or otherwise advertise the heat issue, and that it requires thermal pads to be installed.
