So, I've had my card for three months and while playing a game of over watch, my screen went black and I noticed smoke coming from the back of my video card.  I pull the card and verify that it was the broken component in my system.  Time to RMA(surprisingly my first ever).  However, before I throw down cash on shipping, I wanted to see if my card would be covered by warranty.  Specifically, the 1070 is two PCBs sandwiched together to make one card.  When I pulled the card from the system, I noticed that the back end of the card(by the two power ports) had a slight give to it.  Almost as if the two PCBs wanted to come apart.  It is a very slight movement, and it is where the smoke had come out of the card.  Would this count as physical damage?  I am not even sure if that was how the card was originally.  I am assuming that when the card burned itself out, it decoupled something somewhere?  The card is otherwise in mint factory condition, no scratches, no warped pcbs, no damage that I can see. 
 
Also, when searching for a backup card from my hardware graveyard, I found a 295 that had died on me some years ago that has a limited lifetime warranty.  If I rma'd that card, what card would I get back?  Or is it not worth RMAing at this point.
 
Thanks!

What part did I confuse you on?
