Well the title says it all. My 9600GT thought it would be cool and off itself while I took a break from putting a fence around my house to play some CS.

So if someone wants to uh donate $80 so I can step-up to a 8800gt (g92) i wont be able to own you noobs anymore. But all my funds are currently tied up in have money to spend when I come down there for a week and a half in june.

It is only lifetime if you register the card within 30 days of purchase. If you don't it is only one year warranty.

All EVGA Products purchased ON or AFTER November 1, 2006 MUST be registered within 30 days from ORIGINAL DATE OF PURCHASE to receive limited lifetime warranty. (All products not registered within 30 days will ONLY receive a 1 year limited warranty.)

I'll have to RMA it, but newegg sent me the wrong invoice in the shipping box, it was for the same card and all, but it was addressed to some kid out of cali. and right on their site it requires a scan of the invoice :/ . unless the one I can pull up from my newegg account will work if i print that off.

You should be able to just do a PrintScreen of your invoice. Unless they changed they policies recently, I've always used a plain screenshot of the invoice from Newegg.

You guys usually populate the CS server nightly, or is it hit or miss?

Its sort of hit or miss, Although I got my old shitty shitty shitty system up and running so I can play, even though it looks like shit and I average 10-20fps.

For my gaming comp (the one I had the 9600gt in) PCIe, but right now I'm on my old shitty system with, ugh, 4xagp. I don't really need a new one, just need to wait untill I can get the 9600 back from EVGA's RMA.
