bought the card last month and everything works great until i replace the stock HSF to the thermalright HR-03 plus. it just wont start anything when i try to start the computer. replaced the card with my old 7600gt and it turns on and works fine. but when i try the 8800 it wont do anything. then took off the power cable for the card it turns on but that's it, it wont boot to windows. then when i turn it off without the power cord the card beeps and i'm guessing because there was no power cord connected. thanks.
 
well i guess no one knows the answer to my problem.. oh well, i'm just gonna RMA it. put the stock HSF back and still nothing.. would i be covered on the warranty? just got it last month sept 12 (i think) from EGG.. should i RMA it through egg or through Evga?

thanks
 
everytime i've tried an RMA through newegg they tell me to go through the manufacturer..

stupid question, but have you tried putting the old heatsink on and see if it boots?

tried that already and still no boot. i'm about to give a diff boot up his you know what:mad: i did do any thing different it's actually my 4th time taking that stock hsf and now that i'm putting a nice one in it freaking breaks on me or something happen to it. but well.. shit happens i guess:D

just called Evga customer service and told me to RMA through their web site which i did.. so it's pending and hopefully will be approved. it's actually my first time doing RMA. how does it actually works? will they send me a new card first then send my messed up one or do send the messed up one first then i will receive the replacement. i have no idea how it works.. like what i said it's my first time and hopefully that last time.. thanks.
