I've had my Galaxy GTX 780 HOF Edition card for a little over a year now and just yesterday in the middle of a Youtube video the thing stopped working. I've tried doing a CMOS reset and taking the card out then putting it back in but nothing seems to work except for the cards fans and lights. The BIOS will not detect my card at all but it will detect an old one that I had laying around in my closet. Has anyone had something like this happen before?

Yes I have, and it turned out to be the card that had died. I tried it on another PC in my local PC builder's shop to verify that.
You should try to do the same to be 100% sure before dumping it.

Yea thats what I figured, but I'm hoping thats not the case because then I'd be out 600 dollars because one of the stickers for the warranty is partially ripped...
