D: I put some heat sinks on the back of the card where the VRM were and and has been like that for almost 5 hours. They were not touching anything and now something blew..... How do I RMA?

Go to EVGA's website, and fill out an RMA request. They'll have instructions on how to pack and ship it there.

Make sure you remove those heatsinks and any traces of them being there.

Sounds like it may have shorted your motherboard too. You'll also have to RMA that.

My P5N-D died just the other week! Such a pain!!

Is yours the 65nM card with the RAM on the back? Did You take the back plate off and put on the heat sinks? Dont know why that would cause a problem??

EDIT when my motherboard went it would turn on but not post. The graphics card fan would not spin up or anything.

Is your motherboard passing Post? What are the LED lights by the RAM slots doing? Maybe you have fryed the PCI slot?

Also was the PCI lane set to over 100 in the BIOS?

Xeb stop posting basically the same threads over and over!

Seriously, you have a thread that's like 5-7 pages long about this exact situation. Even a mod asked you to use descriptive titles. All you had to do was edit that original thread. What's the point?

And I know it's not a helpful post, but come on...
