It depends on the terms of the particular warranty, but in general things that specifically would void it are "unusual" and intentionally done like taking the cooler off to replace it or overclocking. Just having it damaged in the course of normal use doesn't seem like a thing that should void a warranty. Here it's possible also that the electric utility can be made to pay damages for damaged equipment under certain circumstances (I have no clue what your local laws are like).
