Excellent.

If It's not too late, go ahead with the DNA.

I used the fact that it was arriving with multiple other items to DNA it, stating that it was the only one missing. Got the refund processing within 5 minutes of contacting the amazon REP through chat..

I am sure you got your refund for the RAM now, how about the GPU?

Yes, I managed to DNA the RAM.
I've decided to hold back on SE'ing the GPU as I believe that it'll be more likely to be successful when it's being sold by amazon as opposed to a third party seller selling through amazon, regardless of what method I use.
