Should I be concerned/RMA this?

I have a GTX 780 lightning and after being in a case for about a month or so it's doing something pretty much identical to this at the end of the card

i would def RMA it

and that is?

I would definately RMA this card. It looks like its warping, which is generally caused by heat.

The warping at the end

tc983x :

It really hasn't got hot at all though.

if its under warranty and it has a dimple i would rma it.it would be a shame to ignore it and have it fail after the warranty is up.i like to err on the side of caution.

That you know of. It's warping.

Yeah I know... I just hate the thought of spending quite the pretty penny on a card an getting back a refurbished one.

I think I'll hold onto it a bit, it's a practically brand new card. It would do no damage to use it for a bit rather than RMA it now. However I'll make sure to send it in before warranty is up.

good idea.

tc983x · Mar 14, 2014

Why risk ruining your other components if that card fries? Don't wait for the house to be engulfed in flames before u decide to RMA. why not just put out the small kitchen fire lol..
