I know OCing voids the warranty but how would the manufacturer know the card has been overclocked? If I were to set the card back to original settings how could they tell?
 
thats what I thought...I wasn't sure if there was some trigger in the firmware or something else sneaky that told them.
 
its more of, if the card dies because i overclocked it and didnt care about temps and the card dies. i can RMA and the company wont know. yea, not good. the manufacture cant tell, but still, if you cant pay to replace it, dont OC it.
 
Im not an idiot...Im not going to OC the crap out of them so they die within the week...I have artic coolers on both of them and I am very careful about the temps. I'm going to watercool them too as soon as I get my hands on a TJ07. I was thinking more along the lines of eVGA's upgrade service...OC them till something new comes out.
