My evga sc15 laptops gpu fan died prematurely, leading to grinding noises until the fan slowly lost rpm until it stopped working entirely. Rip evga.

I did. Just wanted to share and see if others have had failures too. Curious of the failure rate for the fans.

One of the fans made a clicking noise on my SC 15 right out of the box.  I sent it back on RMA and they sent me a new replacement.  I had a good experience with their support but it sucks that I had to pay to ship it back.

You do know in their terms it says if rma is needed in first 30 days of purchase you may request a pre paid label right?

This is the first time I have seen this issue. It is definitely something that can occur, but it would be very rare. Sorry that you were unlucky in this case! I hope we get that resolved quickly for you.

I had to send my laptop back because the display died less than 24 hours after I received it and EVGA told me that that they would need to schedule a UPS pickup due to the high dollar value of the device. So I was not responsible for the cost to ship it back to EVGA despite the emails I received after creating the RMAs.
