I just bought an MSI nvidia gt 710 and it worked fine for two months and bang ! It crashes everytime, I removed the card and found out that it is very hot. After that I tried to reduce the graphics quality and played games at the least quality - which is 480p. Still it crashes. Now I can't even start Windows or Linux with this graphics card. Then I heard of MSI warranty, I registered the product but it says there is no warranty for graphics card. What can I do now ?
Any help would be appreciated
 
Solution
Its a LOW Quality GPU - Best option to avoid it from happening again its to get a new GPU (That not cheap)

or get GIGABYTE Durable GPU`s <--True durability they got.
If you have passive cooled GT710 and it got overheated, then get a small fan and slap it into the heatsink.
For the warranty, you can try to contact the store where you bought that card and let them replace it for you.

What you expect for cheap GPU?
Just for bringing windows GUI into life.
And play games at horrible FPS that makes you rage and want to get a new GPU. :)

The MSI GT710 is passively cooled. Most PC cases have the cards mounted upside down, which doesn't help the situation.
Mine is mounted in an Acer Aspire X1700 with the heatsink pointing upwards, which helps ever so slightly with heat dissipation, but if it's running hot enough to crash, in OP's case, I'd recommend a fan.
