I'm considering building a PC and wanted to know a little bit more about part warranties.

I was planning to buy my parts through amazon but I'm unsure whether the parts will still be under warranty or not.

I'd prefer that each part have a few year warranty, does anyone know if companies will still offer this even if it is bought through amazon or if there is another vender where i could find this?

 

For reference, here is what I'm probably planning to buy: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/Dwking77/saved/jMGY99 although I may go for a better gpu if possible such as a 2070S or 3070.

If anyone can see anything wrong with my build please feel free to point it out too, I'm new to this :)

Amazon is an authorized seller of almost all PC parts, you just need to make sure that if it's a 3rd party selling THROUGH Amazon it's authorized to do so.

 

That being said, most parts have very comprehensive warranties even allowing for selling used and transferring warranties to the non-primary purchaser.

 

Nutshell:  Verify the warranty language with the manufacturer.

I don't think it matters as long as its brand new, just matters from the actual manufacture. For example if I buy a WD Blue SSD, I still get my 5 Year warranty, no matter if I bought it from best buy or amazon. (Although buying used you may still have a warranty, although could be expired)

My front panel IO on my H510 broke and NZXT had no problem replacing it, I purchased it from Amazon. They just asked for my invoice. Saying that, I would recommend you don't get the H510, it's airflow is terrible and I made that same mistake only to upgrade less than a year later because the thermals were so bad.
