None of those appear to have caused permanent damage to the video card,
but I reckon they could be interpreted as 'trashed the video card'.
Perhaps that is what jonathan was referring to?
It would take a big leap of the imagination to stretch those problems to
"your system can be bricked by the upgrade process".
Jonathon also wrote in an earlier post:
"If you are not willing to have to buy new hardware, because it
was bricked beyond fixing, then you are a "normal user". "
The bugs you listed caused temporary problems and are a long way from
what Jonathon claimed.
