Their not the only ones... Sapphire, XFX, Asus, & HiS do it too. I think the only ones that dont are MSI and EVGA - maybe a few others. Unfortunately warranty policies arent the same, it differs depending what part of the world you're from which is just silly

thats BS - they technically are the same company. It doesnt matter if its the Euro or South America's division, Warranty policies should still be the same unless theres a split and they both go under different names other then XFX - such as adding the region where the card was purchased on the box. When i pick up an XFX graphics card from the shop, it says XFS on it not XFX USA or XFX Europe just 'XFX'

Im gonna speak to a friend of mine who spent a few years studying law and see if this is against consumer or trading standards.

The different policies in warranty are dictated by the laws and regulations of individual countries/states/regions/etc.
