Good Afternoon,
I built a new PC a couple of months back and for the first 2 months, it worked flawlessly. Then all of a sudden I began to experience random crashes where the screen would go black and the PC either locked up or would reboot. I tried a number of troubleshooting tasks before I determined that my graphics card was the cause of these crashes. I began the process to RMA the card with ASUS and earlier this week I received a response from them claiming that my card was out of warranty due to Customer Induced Damage. The picture they provided me is nothing more than a slight nick on the lock tab that was more than likely caused from inserting or removing the card. It in no way affects the electronics of the card. I disputed this on my warranty claim and asked for a reconsideration. Unfortunately they are still coming back and saying that they won't cover the warranty on this card. I am curious if anyone else has any experience dealing with ASUS on these matters and would offer some assistance? I am really disappointed by this as I have used ASUS products for years and never had any issues with them. If, in the end, they still refuse to warranty the card, I guess my days of doing business with ASUS may be over. Any thoughts, recommendations, advice?
