I have been waiting 6 days sofar, no answer. bought the card at bestbuy though so i think i got 30 days to return it unopened.

yea, bricks and mortar, just take it back

The Classy is a heck of a deal at $ 699.99

Zotac has been known to have no issues with adding aftermarket cooling, as long as if you return it you put it back on and you don't physically modify the card.

But maybe things are different now:

4. ZOTAC reserves the right to void the warranty
The warranty does not extend to defects that are caused by non-compliance with operating instructions, improper use, inappropriate operating conditions, overload or modifications of the product.

In particular, the warranty will be null and void if

- the product has been modified and/or wilfully damaged in any way; or
- the serial number has been altered, defaced or removed; or
- the GPU cooler fan has been removed or replaced.

could always try calling: T: 1-877-59-ZOTAC
