Bad News! Nessie is Sick!

Well found that my poor wee Nessie is not well at all. While Replacing the Thermal Paste on her I have discovered something has burnt.

Sorry to hear that Worf Still in guaranty ?

Tell them, new card, but same GPU!
Or you might get a dud like mine(still clocks good and temps are great, but only limited OC I have found.)

Darn Andrew, I'm sorry to hear that. That's really bad luck. I hope you get the RMA quickly.

Nessie is picked up tomorrow and the process should take around 3 - 7 days. Hope tp get a good preforming card that can take the abuse I throw at it.

For Nessie who will be missed:
