I know Evga has the best customer service. I want to purchase Evga GTX 1080 TI through Bestbuy. My question is...IF my GTX 1080TI DOA or die before warranty expires. Can I RMA through Evga website easily since I purchase it through BestBuy? Hopefully Mod can help me answer it. P.S. I have never spent more than 600$ on a graphic card. I'm still using GTX 680. If I purchase GTX 1080 TI, I want it to last several years. I hope that purchase through BestBuy won't cause any problems for RMA. I don't RMA stuff unless if it's DOA, defects, or die before warranty expires.

Best Buy is an authorized reseller for EVGA. I don't see why you would have any issues at all with an RMA.

@HeavyHemi, thanks for your answer. I am a bit worried since 820$ is a lot of money for me, so I was hoping someone here can assure me that I can RMA here.

I got my first 980 TI Classified from Newegg. Not only did I get the promotional rebate from EVGA for it, EVGA RMA'd my card with a full replacement a year later due to issues I was having.

I listened to you. I just purchased it through Newegg. I still need to pay tax since I'm living in California, but that's fine. EVGATech_JeffP

Thank You. Will do. I can't wait for my Evga Gtx 1080 TI SC2 to arrive this Friday. :)
