Have you swapped your MSI 7950?

Costs around £9.60 to send a card back with insurance first class.
Post office
First class insurance only covers up to £46. It's best to use a courier.
It's not even remotely ironic.
Don't worry about it, you are entitled to claim that back from the seller as it's a faulty item.
So what company should I use then?

This isnt normal...Not even 5 minuets of furmark and temp 75 and 64% the card also makes a weird noise...

The courier you select will come and collect the parcel from you rather than you having to take it to them.

But still I have to buy things to preaper it, or do they box it for me?

Jesus Christ if I see any more posts about your temps IC3 I think I'll go insane 
.
Send it back tomorrow as you're obviously not happy with it even though it's "OK". If it's an RMA and they actually test it as opposed to "oh it's another MSI return" then be prepared for them to reject the RMA.

Yep! They also wipe your bum and tuck you in at night too!
Generally, just wrap the box in a bin bag and parcel tape, print the label out and stick it to the box.
Did you have a look at the temps?
I think they should accept the card as faulty.
Rusty admit it you just love me posting my temps
So there is something wrong.
My airflow isnt bad since the last gpu got max of 59-60c oced! it was gts 250 1gb pushed to its limit.
My cpu gets max of 51c oced as well...
Theres something wrong with this card...
For the tests i actually lower the room temp and I had to sit in a jumper!...
the refrence cooling would be better than this.

The problem is the card is not running hot by definition. Just compared to what it should be running.
If they wanted to get funny about it they could reject an RMA for it although I feel that's unlikely given the coverage this faulty version of card is getting.
This is why you should thoroughly test and research in the 14 day period because then you get a no hassle return.

For the millionth time yes there is something wrong ! Not horrible temps but still a bit too high. I gave you an excellent example on page 3 with my temps not exceeding 64c with a huge oc and a low fan speed. While you had a very very little oc and a high fan speed your temps were way to high compared to mine. But once again your temps are not horrible, just comparing it to mine which is a full working 7950 tf3 yours is slight out of proportion .

It was 13 working days when I contacted to get my Money back. They emailed me back with the RMA number and all the spiel about them testing the card and if its not faulty they will send it back to me at my cost. I mentioned that I wanted my money back as part of the 14 day money back gurantee. See what happens

Make sure you claim your postage costs back as well. I have sympathy with OcUK it's not their fault but you shouldn't have to eat the cost to return faulty items under the DSR/extended DSR
Mine was a tenner and I'm not exactly going to go hungry without that £10 but it's more a matter of principle for me.

I know what you mean by this, since its not our or OC fault that the item is damaged. But MSI`s I know its a quality manufacture but every manufacture once in the career will have a bad batch of their products.
Iv asked in my customer service thread if, I can send the card under the 14 day satisfaction guarrante.
