Warranty details for XFX 6950XT and third-party repairs.
So basically your XFX RX 6950XT is not working right now. Your friend moved the PC a bit off the floor, lifted the case, and dropped it because a dust filter came out. The GPU was fine, but when you swapped it in, the PC still didn’t start. After a few tries, even with a different GPU, it wouldn’t power on. The card slot was still open, so it’s likely something else broke. I’m thinking about requesting a replacement from XFX, but they might not cover it since it’s outside their warranty. I’m considering a third-party repair, but I can’t go to shops online because I rely on YouTube for advice. I’m worried about the cost—my friend said they’d reimburse me, but now new cards are cheaper, so maybe they’ll only pay €500 for an RX 7000 series. I’m hoping things will work out.
