Refurb XFX R 7870 2GB

Detailed product description
[Newegg Link]
Full disclosure, there was some drama here.
XFX decided to play games with me on their "lifetime" warranty when my 6970 2GB failed.
They sent this 7870 as a refurb, said it was equivalent to the 6970... it wasn't.
This card DOES NOT like Asus Socket 1366 motherboards, so please be careful. I have tried it with MSI socket 1366, no issues. Socket 2011 mobos, no issues. But XFX just had to send me a replacement that hated Socket 1366 Asus motherboards... the motherboard I owned.
I will be as accommodating as financially possible if you have problems and need to send it back. I understand my test pool to provide info on this card is not extensive. Add $15 for shipping (not refundable).
