I'm shocked that the card has a lifetime warranty and I was smart enough to register it when I bought it in January of 2011. #4

However in recent years, I feel as they have been......smartly less generous. If I was to be & put money on it, I imagine a 1050 Ti or 1060 may be in your near future, which both will walk all over a GTX 470. I still have an old 9800 GTX, which refuses to die and is the last of my Lifetime cards......I may even shed a tear when it dies lol.

As usual excellent service from EVGA. #10

Our RMA stock is different from our "Sale" stock, our website only lists products that are currently or recently for sale. The specs of this card can be found at https://www.geforce.com/h...gtx-950/specifications Everything is security. #16

Can support tell me what's coming my way? #17

You should find the info for the new card under the "My Products" page (EVGA should have registered it for you) Learn your way around the EVGA Forums, Rules & limits on new accounts Ultimate Self-Starter Thread For New Members I am a Volunteer Moderator - not an EVGA employee https://foldingathome.org -->become a citizen scientist and contribute your compute power to help fight global health threats *RTX Project* EVGA X99 FTWK *Nibbler* EVGA X99 Classified EVGA 3080Ti FTW3 Ultra #18
