EVGA have done it for me in the past, since the warranty is tied to the card not the person who purchased it, just had to sort out the shipping. GTX680 for (£180)
Guy I bought it from does all the returns for "the forest" as they end up auctioning them off.

Well done! I tried with sapphire and got fobbed off because i used ebay. I lost around £160 as i sold the card for £40 sapphire 7950.
The card started artifacting all over and they just said no warranty from ebay salesand linked there terms of sale page.
I did not bother to read them as i thought there answer was final.
Grats man i hope it works out.
Well.
They decided to replace it anyway to stop any silly arguments weather or not it is faulty or not.
New card been dispatched today
Nice result
Soo, The distributor has my card in the UK, They say its not a new one but a "Graded" one.
No idea what that means. I expect its a refurbished one. They were told its been swapped for a working one though.
I did put a Security mark on the one i sent back (also it has replaced EK VRM thermal pads) So if it is my old one i wont be too happy.
Will update when it arrives, should be here tomorrow or Friday

Hope this works out man
Sooo. Update
TNT turned up to my surprise, i was expecting it tomorrow.
Pics:
The Back plate has some evidence of not being new, But I don't care
Anyway i have installed it:
I don't wish to un plumb the 7970 as i like to watch Youtube when i install water blocks
I'm going to test Bf3 for 30 mins at stock settings and then again @ 1100/1600 to see if it overclocks.
Its 100% a different card, Its VRMS have normal thermal tape on and the cooler is missing my invisible ink

For future reference, always say it was a gift from a family member who now lives in another country.
