Alternative for Faulty GPU with expired warranty ?

I bought a MSI n700 GTX Twnfrozr 2gig from eBay 6 months ago, the card was sold as refurbished. I never overclocked it as its power was already overkill for the games I was playing. I turned my computer off two days ago, the next morning green artefacts started to appear on the monitor that will then switch off when loading Windows.

Not a driver issue as it starts pixelating from the post, I tried every possible combinations with cables and it seems out of order, despite the temps never exceeding 45 degrees during gameplay.

My main question is: the warranty has expired (I checked the serial number) is the only alternative in the direction of the dustbin ?

Thank you.
