ok as title i want to remove the heatsink of my gpu however on 1 screw got sticker but not mention on that sticker warranty will be void.

problem with this card is artifacting, i change with another 1 also same. google around found that its asus design issue with vram so i want to add vram heatsink on 4 exposed ones (since now im stuck with this card =.=)

IF AND ONLY IF you are able to tear away the sticker and stick it back on, then you may do so. or else ask friend with steadier hands and have 100% confidence to help u thumbup.gif

I already chg 1 to 1 with shop before. Afraid after RMA will still have this problem. Stress test for around 10 minutes will not show anything, 3-4 matches of bf4 or dota2 then only appear. Plus don't have any spare gpu to use....
