Go to solution Solved by Wesleydn,

no it wont, lost of people use MSI after burner and put the power to 110% as it lets your GPU draw more power and wont kill your card

It will also not decrease your cards life and shouldnt affect temps much

 

Voltage will increase heat and decrease life span of the card and possibly kill it

im overclocking my card right now. and i got 1030 core clock and 1480 memory clock. and unigine heaven crashed at the final step. and im using a sapphire dual x r9 270 card. so what im asking is will it woid my warrenty if i increse my power limit. i head that increasing  your  core valtage woids warrenty and i wanted to know will it happen even if i increase power limit. 

 

please reply quickly. thanks in advance.

Neither of them void warranty, but if you kill your card and go to RMA it more then likely you won't have it accepted.

power limit is just a software tweak. If you changed the BIOS to include it then yeah probably, but I don't think there is any way for them to know on the power limit once the card is out of your pc.

More voltage can kill your card, a higher power limit cannot.

Lots of GPU's have coil wine,

Some resellers will take them back and swop out for a new GPU.

Second if its just happening in Heavean then dont stress at all even if its every now and then.

If its happening all the time and its still under warrenty, you can try trade it in but at the end of the day it wont affect your gpu at all, just your ears
