POWERCOLOR X1900XTX warranty...?

[VisceralM]

I'm wondering, does anyone know if adding a different heat sink voids the life time warranty on this? The powercolor is a tad more than the Sapphire version of the x1900xtx but the warranty makes it worth it...unless it's voided when I put a new heat sink on.

Anyone?

I've got the warrenty information on my home computer. IIRC it doesn't really specifiy anything other than physical damage to the card voiding the warrenty. When I get home in an hour or so I can try to dig up the entire "lifetime" warrenty policy of theirs. I've got a PowerColor X1900XT FYI.

From the wording on their website it seems that only physical damage will void the warranty. Good thing, I'm thinking of picking up one of Powercolor's X1900XTs very soon and putting a VF1 Plus on it . . .

Awesome, sounds good. As for the VF1 1Dark1Sharigan1 mentions, the review on Toms makes it sound like the best thing ever, but I've also read it's only about .5 cooler than the Accelero, which is a lot easier to install..

Also, I've head the VF1 is really, really a pain in the ass to get installed correctly..
