Shot a surge back through the slot?  Hopefully that didn't damage the CPU.
 
I'm glad they are working to help you.  Personally I believe how they deal with this is how they can directly comfort the scared and nervous masses.  If their cards blow something up, they will take care of you.

So far, Jan from EVGA has been very helpful. As previously stated, I'm keeping this post and the reddit thread updated. I always provide feedback, whether negative or positive, and will make sure EVGA's response is explained and given credit - if applicable. Equally, I will also make sure negative updates are posted if due.
