RMA A Refurb?

Quote:
Refurb'd cards undergo extensive testing, so the chances of it being DOA are actually less than a new card, IMO. With that said, if you bought it from Newegg, they'll just give you a refund. If you would rather RMA it to ATI instead of getting a refund, I don't see any reason why you couldn't. They still have the full manufacturers warranty.

Alright, thats good to know, thanks.

What does refurbished mean? .

Means it was either used or RMA'ed and they tested it and made it like new again to resell to the customer =).

Aah, getcha, just wondering if was the same as a demo product. Used, but with full warranty

Just a further post of support, the last 2 video cards I've purchased for myself were both refurbished cards. Both turned out to be excellent overclockers and I've had nothing but positive results. I plan on buying refurbished again if the card I want is available.
