I contacted Asus Germany via telephone. I have been talking to a rather unfriendly guy, who told me that Asus does not give ANY warranty to an end user and that I have to contact my dealer in terms of warranty. This dealer (Alternate) tells me that the card cannot be repaired or replaced in timely manner and only wants to give me half the price back. What a bummer, Asus! This was the last product I bought from you!
If , here in Germany, the manufacturer doesn`t give any additional warranty, you are left with the one that is obligatory by law. And this is:
You have 24months of warranty, BUT......after 6 month the customer has to prove that the product was already faulty, when he bought it.
This is IMPOSSIBLE in reality! How shall I prove this?
That`s why many manufacturers give additional warranty to the end user. But ASUS does not! Shame on you!
