Looking for advice on what is the best video card out there right now with a 1 year warranty. (Edit: 1 year or less to help mockingbird)

Wanting this to match with credit card extended warranty to give the most flexibility if a failure pops up between year 1 and 2.

Right, AMD has the same warranty period as PowerColor.

Every other manufacturer is at least 2 years. And that's what you'll get if you buy their branded vii.

Nvidia at least treats their product like the top-end it is, and gives you three years.

a lot depends on your location.....in the US i would lean toward XFX if possible for the 2 year warranty because they have an active rep here....Maybe an extended warranty is not a terrible idea for a 700 dollar card but my personal feeling is these cards are built like tanks and should have better results than space invaders failure rates.

Perfect, going to check if AMEX extended warranty covers b-stock/refurb and keep an eye on them. Do you know if they ever do sales on the b stock items? Being able to have AMEX handle anything in year 2 give a lot more flexibility because they refund your payment in most cases making it a lot less hassle than sending a card in for repair.

b-stock is the scratch and dent section of their stuff, so it is usually cheaper, which is why the one year warranty.
