6870 display driver has error every 3 mins

got my card back from RMA for the 2nd time and it now works to bad its in as poor condition as the last one they sent. my first card was in perfect mint condition and i get back dirty scratched up junk

the person i contacted about my bad card the 2nd time said they would pick one in better condition for me this time i guess she was telling what i wanted to hear.

I'm really sorry to hear about your experience. Unfortunately, that's the way it goes sometimes. The intention is to get you a "working card". They don't really specify how pretty it will look. Let us know how things go.

I can completely sympathize with you. If it is a huge point of contention for you, you should definitely start a chain of emails with MSIs customer service.
