Testing GPU before Shipping,,,,please help

[lhikari]

im getting a 780ti and dont wanna spend my hard eaned cash to waste when i found out that its DOA

simple put im paying $80 shipping because im shipping it to the country next to me whcih my cousin is in for a while then coming to my country(which is rare)

so yeah do you guys know if theres a service that checks my gpu if its working or not before shipping it?

I really dont wanna end up wasting $780 because warrenty is really useless cuz i have no way of returning it without paying less than $200

really appreciated, thanks

DOAs on GPUs are rare, you are worrying wat to much.

People who get faulty GPUs return them for a new one, but the chance is super low like 0,1%

Well you could get your cousin to test it out, but that means you don't get the joy of opening it and breaking seals yourself. Besides that, no.

the 780Ti is a binned 780 with all cida cores unlocked, get one from the likes of asus and they tend to test before they ship on high end products, same for MSI.

You are worring way to much, like a mum who does not want to send her kids to camp because there might come a evil scientist and drug the children and then feeding them to a dinosaur

Ok, my example was a little bit extreme but you get the point.

It's pretty much the same things to look out for, except maybe burnt VRM.
