Hello anyone and everyone.
I've been having some issues with my 2070 XC ultra (bought December 2018) crashing/blacking out on me. I had no clue it was the GPU until the computer repair store told me their 'scan' had determined it was my GPU causing the issue. They had apparently fixed it by re applying thermal paste. fast forward to now. Random games crash while other run for a limited time. For example games like World of Tanks, Call of Duty Modern Warfare run. While games like Mordhau, Star wars clone commandos, Red Orchestra 2, rising storm 2, all crash before I can even select an option from the main menu. I did however get star was Battle front 2(2017) to load the main menu and run the main menu, however when I go to launch a game; it begins to blackout/crash when I start to get loaded into a match.
I contacted EVGA costumer service and they told me to do some of my own trouble shooting (which I did for the most part) and have come to the conclusion that it is in fact the GPU. But heres my problem I bought the GPU around black Friday of 2018. I never saved the receipt, nor did I buy any warranties from micro center. I do have my bank statement from 2018 showing that I did make a purchase at Micro center. When I try calling Micro center customer service I get placed on hold for hours and have never had anyone pick up. (I understand covid19 is probably slowing things down for them)
Is it possible to do this RMA with the situation that I am in? or am I going to just have to kick rocks, or possibly just bite the pillow and buy another 2070?
Any insight and help is appreciated, I really dont know where to go or what to do at this point.
