I've recently bought a sapphire tri-x r9 290 and it started blackscreening a lot during operation, until the computer can't even recognize it anymore. I've already ruled out PSU problems by using another one and PCI slots by using another processor and mobo.

I've contacted my seller and he proposed two solutions: they can give me a full refund or they can give me a new card for no charge.

After looking around the interwebs for similar problems they seem to be pretty common, I'd hate to ship my card for replacement and wait for a new one to face the same problem again. Any opinions?

Thanks
