Thanks FischOderAal
I would also like to thank everyone else for their support
Fed Ex were on my side today, as even though my replacement card was posted by "within 3 working days delivery", it arrived today.

So far I have managed to play GTA IV for around an hour, Stalker Clearsky for around an hour. and have succeeded 3 loops of 3dmark vantage. And 10 mins of Furmark Xtremeburn mode.

For the record, I was not able to achieve this at all with the RMA replacement which was an RMA replacement for an RMA (it would crash after 3-5mins of GTA IV with serious artifacting).

My replacement card *touches wood* appears to be working.

Once again, thanks for your advice, help and morale support.
