Hey y'all!
I wanted to provide you all with an update on my situation with the Sapphire Nitro+ 9070 XT, following my previous post [ Burnt Connector – Sapphire Nitro+ 9070XT ] about the burnt 12VHPWR connector. There's been quite a bit of chatter around this issue lately, and I appreciate all the support and helpful comments I received.
So, here’s the good news: I reached out to Sapphire regarding the RMA process. They were responsive and have officially authorized my RMA! They requested that I send in my GPU along with the melted power cable for evaluation. I’m hopeful that they either repair my card or replace it with a new one.
One thing to note is that they did ask me to cover the shipping costs and insurance, which I kind of expected given the situation. It’s a bit of a bummer, but at least I’m moving forward with the process.
I’ll keep you all posted on how it goes! Thanks again for all the advice and support. If anyone else is in a similar situation, feel free to reach out!
