I have this video card that was making my system crash showing some green boxes, then the freezes with a blackscreen, ok no problem, restarted the PC system seems good but I started to search, read on Internet reviews of the card, this problem was common and was fixed doing a BIOS flash to fix the voltages, I did it and TADA lots of artifacts from the very system start after I did the vbios upgrade, did a rollback and artifacts were still there but in other shape...

why this happened ? video card was faulty from factory? any way to fix it or must RMA :V ?


I cannot seem to get at least one shipment from amazon without a faulty hardware :/
