totally agree, proven with your Safe Mode test and trying another card.
really should consider the warranty avenue in my humble opinion.
if for no other reason then to let the manufacture know they are producing faulty products and need to investigate their production line, otherwise how will they ever know if no-one ever tells them.
they'll simply keep pumping out shite products and ticking off all their customers. :)

Yeah. I'll have a look into any available options with the seller. Thanks
 
with Corsair products at least, I have joined their forum and one on the reps have sent me the paperwork to fill out via that medium.

One reason why I would never recommend purchasing a pre built PC, any warranty period is between yourself and the merchant that sold you the computer and any warranty period for individual parts used in the build was between the system builder and the hardware manufacturer, there is no warranty agreement between any third party ( the purchaser) and the hardware manufacturer for any parts used in the build, if you ever have any success with such a warranty claim it is normally a good will gesture on behalf of a hardware manufacturer.

The above is basically because warranties are not transferable.

Yeah I figured as much. As I mentioned the seller is no longer listed as one, so I don't think there's anything left for us to do in this particular case.

I found a support page for Nvidia cards that would otherwise be relevant to this issue but like you mentioned I don't think it applies since the graphics card was resold in a prebuilt through an unpartnered buyer (https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5149). I may still go through with what's listed in the support page just to be helpful but sadly I don't think there's any fixing the card.

We only bought this prebuilt because it was an extremely good deal, the whole PC was about as expensive as the graphics card alone usually would be (ironically enough since the card broke lol)
