Another thing, in the return policy I am not sure if it covers defective items. They should be able to tell that this is not a ESD OR wear and tear issue (I have had the card in for less than 48 hours, fan never ran once remember?) Either way I plan to demand a refund or exchange for the item at...

Thanks for the help anyway. Any other opinions are greatly appreciated.

I plan to do that but listen to this and tell me if I still stand a chance of getting it replaced. Alright, so Best Buy sold me a faulty product, I ORDERED the item the 26th of december they CHARGED my credit card on december 31st (Charge as soon as they ship it is their policy) and their policy...

Sunder, I purchased the card BRAND NEW. Its been over 30 days since the purchase as I previously said, plus the "extended warranty" that comes with zotac cards has run out since I didnt even open the box till I was about to install the card (You must register within 14 days of PURCHASE). I am...

I assumed the same, either way it is NOT cooling down. It just peaked at 100c and I stopped as soon as I saw that, I wont be gaming with this problem that is for sure. Sunder, I have never replaced a GPU fan but it seems thats my only option, do you think replacing the fan will fix the problem?

Also, I didnt register the extended warranty within 14 days and its been over 30 since I purchased the card (Just installed it yesterday.) So I guess I am shit out of luck. I think my only options are too go to a PC store and ask them to replace the fan, assuming that works. Still wondering...

Thanks sunder, I will try that. Also afterburner says the fan is on and when I raise the fans "max" setting in the program it shows its cooling the temperature, but the fan is not moving... Can someone explain that too me?

Got afterburner, turned the fan setting up, nothing. I think messing around with the fan might void the warranty, like Conlan said. Where is the fan wire located? Its hard to see while the card is inside my computer.

Hi, I recently upgraded my computer with a gtx 650 ti graphics card, I get good frames in games for around 5 minutes until it starts to drop by around 30 frames or more. I decided to open up the case as I was playing a game (Grand Theft Auto 4) and I noticed the fan was not moving at all. I...

I have uninstalled the drivers, installed new ones, it asked for a system restart which I did, now my pc is giving no video output. Have any suggestions? The connection between the pc and monitor is fine, as it was working right until I restarted the computer. I dont even see bios.

I do not want a older driver, I need to uninstall it completely. I want to use my native resolution of 1920 by 1080 but right now I can only go to 1200x1024 for some unknown reason that I think is linked to my drivers.

I dont need a system restore any longer, since I am past startup repair. I am just trying to install and uninstall graphic drivers to see if it fixes the resolution problem.

I have made it onto the computer! Sorry for not updating. The resolution is all off now, but I assume that is a driver issue. I had a hd radeon 4200 but I cant seem to find out how to uninstall its driver. :[

Hi, I recently upgraded my PC with a new PSU, RAM and GPU. I am now stuck on windows startup repair. It has finished and took me to the recovery center or a similar named program and it gave me little to no options of what to do, startup repair even said the problem had been fixed. I cannot boot...

Hi, I do not think that the ram being loose has caused a hd to become corrupt. However my keyboard will not allow me to input anything on the bootup screen, cant go into safemode, cant use the arrow keys, I know its working because when I get to the startup repair it allows me to use the...
