Are they any good ?, the thing is I can't find any warranty information, on their site it says it's down to the retailer, so that would mean 1 year I guess but when I read reviews of POV graphics cards they say they come with a 3 year warranty registration card ? could someone tell me how the RMA process works with these cards after the 1st year is up please.

I can't speak for the RMA process, but me and a friend bought 8800GTS 320mb cards this time last year, and they served us well. I sold mine on, but he still has his and it's running well still.

I also bought an 8800GTS 512mb by them a few months ago before realising that the 9800GX2 was so cheap, so sold that on as well, but regardless, have been impressed with PoV so far. They might be cheap but they're not tacky.

Can't help you much on warranty info though; I don't remember seeing a card in the boxes but I might have missed that.
 
Bought a POV 6800 GS back in the day, ran for ages, unlocked to a GT (when a BFG one didn't), had a Zalman after market fan fitted and still ran for ages, sold it on the MM a year ago and as far as I know it is still running.
 
my pov 8800gt has been fine, as for warranty im in the same situation as you - been told it lasts 3 years but have no idea how i'd go about RMAing it.

I had two PoV card, they worked perfectly. Most standard graphic cards today are identical regardless of manufacturer, it is only the "overclocked" models that are different.
 
never used em, my card's an eVGA, but i haven't heard any bad press about them

as said earlier, most cards are basically the same barring stickers, clockspeeds if OCed, and warranties
 
Got a POV 6800GT (AGP)in an old pc, and currently running a 8800GT. Both been great cards never had any problems with them. Touch wood ;).
