I got an Arctic cooling Accelero Plus GPU cooler for Christmas, and I wanted to install it on my Sapphire ATI 5870 eyfinity 6 edition card.

But I know once you do that it voids my warranty, and everyone I ask says dont do it "because youll ruin your warranty" or "you might damage it"

Whats your recommendation??



Thank

THANKS

what do you mean by change plastic pins or cut? Is that to install it? Because I think All i have to do is unscrew the back plate, put the vga coolers 4 holes into the GPU, and tighted the screws on the back,

Install it bro. IF it breaks simply reinstall the stock cooler.


lol, see what i meant! people all say no, it freaks me out, Im definitely going to do it tomorrow, its just a matter of now trying to figure out where the seal is and void breaking it. but i will install it
