i sent in one of my 8800gt cards to them due to freezing/ artifacting that they received a week ago. just curious for those of you who have dealt with gigabyte rmas - do they send any communication via email in regards to status? how long does it normally take for a repair/ replacement/ etc...

ppu's are still a viable option, especially for radeon owners. quite frankly, i was surprised by the results. so if you still have a unused ppu lying around, i wouldn't go tossing it yet.
