Hey dudes!
My first post here, but I am facing a little issue with warranty.
I bought Sapphire 4870 in 2008 locally. The card is from Aditya Infotech and it died on me this week.
I took it to the service center. I was told by the dealer that warranty is 3 years.
But I was told while RMAing that actually warranty is 2 years for parts + labour and 3rd year warranty is only on labour.
Why is this not made clear at the time of purchase. Even today the dealers dont tell this while purchasing.
I called Aditya infotech number and I was told to call tomorrow :no:
When I told my dealer to check into it, he says oh yeah that might be in fine prints of warranty for Sapphire cards.
I tried to search about this on Aditya Infotech website but no luck.
What to do now?
Basically if the GPU is dead, they cant do anything. If it can be repaired by replacing some component on the card, then basically I am suppose to pay for it.
I will be upgrading anyway, but this now puts me off from buying Sapphire 6850. I would rather go Nvidia card maker which offers 3 years warranty. or someone else like Asus if they offer 3 years warranty.
