Dead graphics card

Was playing a game, suddenly the screen goes black and the GPU fans ramp up to 100%. Signal LED on the monitor starts flashing showing there is no signal :(

Tried other PCI-E slot
Removed Cooler and re-applied thermal paste

When I plug my 780 in all I get is black screen and GPU fans sounding like a hoover :(
The card was always below 65c (custom fan profile) so I'm not sure why it suddenly died :(

I am currently using an old 8800 GS so I can use my PC :(
My monitor only has a Dual DVI input (2560x1440) so I can't use the HDMI socket on my motherboard, so no HD 4600 that my 4790 has built in :(

Anyone know how long MSI take with their RMA process?
Card is 13 months old
