PSU and Warranty sticker?

LetsPlayThisBro · Oct 22, 2015

I recently was in my rig to replace my SSD, while there I pulled all the components out and dusted them all down. I wiped the boxy part of the PSU and boom, the label came right off, wasn't rubbing hard or picking at it, the sticker just fell off, the one that says "void if removed"

So is my warranty messed up or will EVGA understand they have a problem with their stickers not being sticky enough? There's nothing wrong with the PSU so it's not something urgent, or even needed at this point, but a 5 year warranty that's about only 6 months old is a shame to see go away.

Well jeez that's unfortunate... I honestly don't think anyone here can really answer that question though... It could go either way... As a consumer I would hope that it would be okay, but the sticker does say void if removed

Yeah that's what I thought, but I worry adding my own adhesive might look even more deceptive. I'm considering calling EVGA directly and asking them, I mean it is an issue with weak adhesive not that I was trying to get into the thing or anything. Strange part is where the sticker was located, it wasn't covering up any screws or even at any seams where if I tried to open the PSU it would break to indicate I got into it. At least HDD's cover up the final screw with a huge sticker that if you go to remove the screw the sticker is ruined and that's that. This thing seemed almost decorative.

It is a Seagate branded as EVGA and it does have textured paint on it where if it was smooth maybe the sticker would have held better. I was hoping to see a handful of folks having the same issue as me. Maybe I'll check the EVGA/PSU forums to see if this is a known issue with my model.

UPDATE: took all of 3 minutes of a google search and reading a LOT of messages on EVGA forums that the wisdom is to hang on to the sticker, even if it's not attached they'll allow you to RMA it. It apparently happens a lot.

Just mail them now and complain about it and maybe they can send out another sticker or so. I guess they are aware of it if it's normal.
