As in you RMA a card to OCUK because its genuinely broken after 28 days not because it has coil whine or does not meet your ocing expectations. Then OCUK send to Inno3d in Hong Kong I believe.
Reason I ask is my GTX 980 Ti X3 Ultra has been away a week now so I still have 21 days to wait & I just do not see Inno3D repairing it within 3 weeks (backplate stinks of smoke where it burnt out) so I think it will hit the 28 day limit.
Only 53 days old terrible Inno3D component QA mine burnt out without warning never overclocked either & it even has a 120mm case fan blowing directly onto it
Was fine in the much hotter ambient temps of July/Aug but failed last week when ambient was much cooler 
If it had been overclocked or used in a poorly ventilated case I can understand but as it had been used at stock & well cooled (the default HSF is massive & keeps temps low) I think I have made an error in buying this brand as Inno3D post sales support is severely lacking for such an expensive highend component
Inno3D have now told OCUK to credit my card so that means I get a new one. This means it was a 14 day turnaround for the RMA.
At least Inno3D agreed the card was toast hopefully a rogue one & the replacement is flawless (like the original was until it went bang!).
