That is good news to hear for certain. I figured that was the case but I wasn't sure.

Hello All,
I am having very similar problems with this same card (works in safe mode, get black screens or sometimes blue screens [that point to an error with the nvidia card] when trying to boot into full windows). I have had the card for about a year, and this just started happening 4 days ago. I tried installing numerous driver versions (latest, next to latest, the ones on the disc that came with the vid card), with full driver wiping each time, but to no avail. I also did a fresh OS install (win7 64-bit), but still the same issue. So based on this I suppose that an RMA will be required, my problem is that rma.gigabyte.us times out for me (multiple locations, browser versions, computers tried to load it). I called customer support but they said I have to use the form at rma.gigabyte.us. Are others able to access this site? Are there any other possible fixes or is it likely RMA is my only option?

Thanks,
Mark

edit: I tried a 8800gtx  last night with all of my other stuff the same, and it worked no problem
second edit: the website is now working
