I got my replacement today, installed it and then it proceed to grind on some screws on my other video card since the clip isn't there to hold it straight up. Now its being held up with nice and flat shale... what? I'm a geologist to be... and the damage has been done. The fan isn't dead or anything but its a bit loud.

Replacement for my RMA'd card of which I have no complaints...: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102926

I am stumped. I just can't seem to get my TV to properly display at 1080 with my computer. Zoom level should be at normal with zero overscan. Overscan is disabled on my TV somehow... Did so just fine before with my other card.

What about overscan on your computer? I have a AMD card and just use their tool to do that.

That what I eventually settled on, FDS but its off and looks nothing like my monitor in terms of crispness. I know it can get to be like my monitor since I done it before with 0% overscan anywhere. Also, its via a HDMI cable which I used in the past. The only thing new is this time its through a XFX AMD card.

Why not turn it on? It always makes my computer look fine on my TV.

Ugh... FML. Why did I have to damage the clips to my case? Hell, even popped off a clip for PCI slot... the one I need for my other card. Lost the spring to it too. I hope when I put a card in there... it'll hold. Not a good way to end the night. :\

Ugh, CPU is going GRRRRRRRR. A few knocks will shut it up but it'll come back... looks like either I have to clean it or replace it.

I've seen a lot of cheap power supplies get the growl... it never stays away permanently once it starts to become regular. On the bright side, for such an intimidating looking part (to most) it's actually very easy to replace, just as long as you remember the 4-wire 12 volt plug on many PCs.

Actually if you mean the 120mm fan just behind the CPU... I bet you'll be fine without it for now, but you can get "SpeedFan" to keep an eye on it all. I actually have a low speed CPU fan and fanless power supply and when I stop my front intake fan it's my hard drives that heat up the worst. 120mm fans are quite replaceable though.

Well, I disabled that fan and one thing led to the next and well bad news first.
Bad news... its one of my GPUs.
Good news is that it is still under warrenty.
How Newegg and/or Sapphire do this will determine if I will ever get a Sapphire product again...
