Did you inform them about your graphics card breaking or did you just get an extra one? haha

Yeah I called them up and got the address and sent them the dead one

Oooohh haha. I thought you just randomly got a new graphics card shipped to you without them knowing that your current one was broken. That would've been weird. xD
