I really hope they make a massive recall of other cards and stop talking about thermal pads, vbios or BS like these...


Samsung was clever enough to do it, take their Responsibility and losses but protect their brand, EVGA is now ready to go full steam on a Lead wall, so be it.

I can say the support (fast to find a solution) it's great, Jacob and few others techmates of him to try find a solution, but is not sufficient efforts only of these persons. The head of EVGA must think again what is best for thems.

Matter of fact, you don't have to calm down and you are right to worry (prs will try to undermind..., just ignore them).
 
On a side note, i see today that EVGA failed to address my ticket, twice. I'm going for the refund, enough of this. (attorney and class actions dance are on the way i suppose, you bring it to yourself EVGA)




On a side note, attorney and class action (lmao) won't help you since the card is still what they consider in spec. And not broken either.

In fact, there is really how much cards who had trouble about this ?

Because if you compare this number with the number of 106/7/80 that evga solds;..

A hand of degrees under the max temps for the VRMs for an "unpatched" card is not what i consider on spec (i don't take the options remember?). EVGA neither or they would never take these steps in the first place. My attorney will do the job, i don't worry about that.

you know if we have the thermal paste to the chip when we recevont our heat pad?

With kit, they send pads and thermal paste.
General when you remove heatsinks (cpu,gpu) you must (clean the old paste) apply again new thermal paste.

when you paste  the link remove(delete) from the front of the link the http://



Thanks for the attempt but doesn't work. When I paste the link and delete the http:// the rest is completely invisible and vanished when I save the post. If i instead put a space between the http:// like ive been doing at least the www -> onward stays and links. Thats exactly why im confused XD

I'm not sure where you bought your card, but evga lawyers will just point you to the store, as you made a sales agreement with them, with what you now believe is a faulty card.
 Evga just allows you to bypass the source for problems as a service.
If you did get it directly from evga you have no foothold. Even a few degrees below spec, is within spec. Even giving options (those you don't want) crumble your pedestal even more.
The judge might agree on a settlement between the 2 parties, wich means an exchange of cards. So there you are with a new (maybe fixed) card, and a few thousand dollars short of cash for your lawyer.

Good luck anyway, but i won't see this one on the news anytime soon.

I have plenty of cards blowned up all over internet already to state my case. The Juge will have hard numbers and facts on his hands. Oh and the whole procedure will be free of charge, yes i live in an amazing Country where Customers Rights matter.
 
Thanks for your concerns anyway.

The judge also has the ability to fine you for launching a frivolous lawsuit and wasting the courts time.
"blowned (sic) up all over internet" does not constitute legal proof as the number of the cases you exaggerate can't be documented or verified.
I see a headline "LUNATICS LAUNCH CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT!" and below the sub caption: "Lawyers laughing their asses off on holiday in Fiji"

You're totally right, he can for frivolous lawsuit (50 € max in this case, nothing really), again i'm not worried at all (i'm not the one who need to), i'm more than confident it's not, they are quite sensitive since the Samsung case. I've won a few times with less than that.
 
We will have to wait and see, right.
