That's when you RMA it.
I have never, EVER had a RMA request refused - even when the fault isn't clearly attributable. When I got a bad mobo (it actually had a nice crack in it, just below the AGP slot) from Newegg, not only did they send me a new one via one-day air, they also gave me $100 store credit.

I sincerely doubt that if your video card dies 4 years down the line, they're going to be jumping to send you a new one. Hardware rarely just stops working (within the desired lifespan of it) if you treat it with care - if you're looking for tips on how to prolong hardware life, I can post some stuff that will help.

Don't assume that this exact set of statements doesn't apply to homebuilt comps as well.
