Re: Defective GTX 480 from Regional... any ideas?

If you're desperate, you could always try the oven baking trick which basically (and hopefully) recontacts all soldering points, which ends up fixing a good quarter to half of all defective cards.

But to play it safe, I would re-call corporate and ask for customer relations.
