    Yeah, that's probably the best way to get money right now off of GPUs.

    How bad do you want it to be? Sure you can flash a corrupt BIOS to it to "brick" it or you can do physical damage but then it will never ever come back.
     
    The more important question really would be:

    flash the wrong vbios, then boot with integrated graphics/another graphics card, flash the correct one back in.
     
    Last step is likely to not be possible at all. Even if it does, it's very possible to need special tools

    if you can recover it later, then it's not bricked.

    Bricking it would imply no turning back, so uhhh.. no I guess?
     
    There are various ways of bricking it, but if you want to brick it to RMA or whatever they should be able to find out what you did easily 
    (Think flashing the wrong BIOS or unclipping the fan or whatever)

    It really depends on how bad it needs to be and for how long.
    Without getting into BIOS flashing, if you just want to make the card (and PC) unusable for a while, you can try setting a bogus overclock.
