okay thank you for morally enlightening me so what can be the ways to upgrade for less money. sell it off with a high price taking advantage of the mining scene?

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

Ok so..i guess i can't brick it.

 

So if i flash a corrupt BIOS i can re-flash the correct one again? Then that's what i wanna do.

 

 

Yes it's for RMA...i know in usa or eu they can easily find out.... but in our country it doesn't work like that...you just send the gpu to the shop and if they can't run it they let you take a new one immediately and send it for RMA later themselves lmao . so what i basically want to do is make the gpu unusable for a while, but not permanently damaged so that i can recover anytime.

 

that's called fraud.

Because that's the cheapest we can get the card in our country.

 

I bought it almost 2 years ago....it was 600$ in US back then. Now i'm gonna upgrade anyway so i thought why not pay less ;-;

 

 

OK so i guess no one is telling me how to do it. fine. thanks for all ur replies though.

 

No they also let me upgrade to a better gpu for little money.

No. Mainly because:

1) We are not here to support illegal practices. 

2) False RMA claims work against us as if it was common to do this GPU prices would be higher for everyone

Gonna agree with this. Ask them for a rebate, trade or sell it. Don't scam

Want to be able to afford an upgrade? Why not mine with it for a bit
