No loot box brother. Only replies that I need to understand that im not the only victim because they are having to pay shipping costs. I think I may sell and go EVGA or XFX as i dont like the fact that if I have another problem ill likely have the same issues all over again and quite frankly...

I received the fury x card, tested and finally working ok. I'm not happy with the outcome getting a card thats slower than the orginal setup I had but at least now I have something that I could possibly sell to recoupe some of the funds that I've been dealing with screwing with Sapphires RMA...

I'm literally burnt out dealing with these guys so I'm getting whatever fury card they listed above. It had better work this time or I definitely will go through Newegg to get either a refund or the credit to buy another card. Yes I did and got three responses from others that they had done...

I can agree. The 295x2 has dropped 100-150 in the last few weeks on ebay so im not so sure the resale on the 295x2 is as good of a bet as it once was and if it keeps dropping I'm which it likely will, the 300 series cards will be a safer bet for resale. Just a few weeks ago you couldnt find...

I have mixed emotions about what to get but tbh im nearing the point of just wanting to get this over with. I really wanted to get the 295x2 back but I guess ill end up going with the fury trix card which will be good on a couple of fronts: 1.less power draw 2. Hdmi 1.4a port (295x2 had...

This was the reply from the sapphire rep. What the heck am I being offered? SAPPHIRE R9 295X2 8GB GDDR5 Closed Expired 2016-1-14 [08:29] 2016-1-14 [04:39] 2016-1-14 [02:42] 2016-1-13 [10:17] 71584 2016-1-14 [08:29] We have got in touch Althon Micro and they have already place order for...

I stand corrected. They are offering the Fury Pro which is a step above the fury x. "We have spoken with factory, your R9 295+X2 is current on order, however they are+ asking us to offer you our latest R9 se+ries which is SKU# 11247-00. This is on+e level higher then R9 390X, please rese+arch...

Interestingly enough, I called newegg support and two hours later I get an email from the Sapphire rep with a totally different attitude. He's suddenly offering the Fury X in place of the 295x2. The email from him earlier today stated they didnt jump series but now they are after all of these...

Awesome story! I'm giving Newegg a chance to push sapphires buttons. If that doesn't work, I'll do exactly what you did. :-)

I contacted newegg and it looks like they will be getting involved and will ensure I'm taken care of properly. I'll be submitting the required info to them tomorrow to get things moving toward a resolution. I'll keep everyone posted. Keep the opinions coming. Much appreciated!

They haven't even offered one 390x yet. I accepted the two 290x cards the last RMA and one of those were bad. Ocellaris, you do realize this is my 5th RMA, right? If Im crying I believe I've earned the right to do so with such sorry service from them.

At this point I should probably just file a small claims suit against them for a full refund and shipping costs.

Just look at the below replies today from this Sapphire rep!!! 2016-1-14 [04:39] That's a problem. I need my product in a reasonable time frame and your company is telling me that'll happen whenever a replacement comes in. That's unacceptable as I have a 2,500 system sitting collecting...

I always have stayed with XFX and EVGA but the one time I deviate I get burned bad. No, I have two 6950's installed but you know that's nowhere near the performance, lol! I do want this fixed asap. I was about to email Sapphire directly on this to see if I could get approval for a 390x 8gig...

Hi, I just now have an update for you that are interested. I returned the two 290x cards as one was defective. Althon Micro agreed to send another R9 295x2 and it has been about two weeks so I decided to give them a call. To their credit, they answered the call quickly, about 5 minutes. I...
