_Eddie,
JamesL has already contacted me via PM and offered to help resolve this. I have declined since I do not believe this "issue" is worthy of RMAing. (not trying to take away from the OP's concern) I'm pretty sure I can remedy the situation that would not affect an RMA of the card if an actual issue arises. IE: fan, gpu etc.etc. Thanks for the support, I've got this one!!! 
howdy2u2,
Great, glad to hear JamesL was able to get in touch with you. If you do change your mind, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be able to assist you.
