Have i lost my warranty???

[The_EnforceR]

So i have a MSi gtx 780 twin frozr. Today i noticed that in the down right corner of the card the board has been split up in 3-5 layers for about half a centimeter. The card runs fine, everything works like a charm. I have 1.5 year warranty left, and i would live to know if this damage can void the warranty so if anything else happens, they will blame this and not be able to fix the true problem for free. Thank you for any help you can provide.

Can you attach a picture?
Did you cause the splitting, hit it with anything? etc?
If no, then they should honor your warranty.

I use imgur to upload the image, then there is a link for "message boards and forums"
Paste that here.

Well if you didnt do that, they should honor the warranty. The PCB is de-layering, which can be bad if it reaches any components.

WOW I've only come across it one other time.

So what should i do, go to the shop and ask them to fix it, or just let is as is, becuase is doesnt harm anything?
Thanks for the answers

That's up to you , I would want a new card replacement , if still under warranty.

I RMA'd my gtx 680 for this card (680 died). So will they now give me the gtx 980 or the 970 (without paying anything)?
