Did i void my warranty?

[zadoria]

Hello!

So i bought a Gigabyte R7 360 2gb OC edition. I wanted to check out AMD Overdrive, i increased both the GPU clock and the Memory clock to the max, after 5 seconds the screen turned black. I had to restart the computer but then everything was fine, i could play an hour of dying light without any problems and gpu sitting at a nice 41°C under load. I have a 3 year warranty for this video card. Did i lose it because of this?

Probably not, most cards are forward thinking with warranties and overclocking. If you're concerned have a look at the documentation on the card

On the box it says: Product is not warranted if the product is modified, altered or repaired without authorization by GIGABYTE

Your fine, you didnt apply enough voltage for the card to reach those clocks so it shut down. Technically if you increase the voltage then you can void your warrenty because no card is guarenteed go overclock there only going to guarentee the stock clocks. Also any damage done by you is not the fault of the company and so that will probably void your warrenty.

The video card shut off after 2-3 seconds, so i doubt that it could reach any of the OCs, and it didn't cause any physical damages
