🛠 Buying Tips for India
Purchase only from an authorized ASUS India dealer and retain the original invoice.
Register the card online immediately, and verify warranty start/end dates through ASUS portal.
If dates are incorrect or a claim is denied without valid justification, email ASUS India support (CC_India@asus.com) or escalate using consumer grievance mechanisms.
Avoid opening or modifying the GPU, including removing stickers—this typically voids warranty.
Given numerous reports about service issues, consider alternative brands like MSI, Gigabyte, or Sapphire RX 9060 XT variants, which may offer smoother support experiences. Gogi Tech+2ASUS Pressroom+2B&H Photo Video+2PC Gamer+2en.wikipedia.org
