GPU Manufacturer Warranty Comparison

[pagani123]

 

Brand	Default warranty length (no registration)	Warranty length w/ registration (original purchaser only)	Transferable?	Overclocking supported? (doesn't void the warranty)	AMD	Nvidia	Can you replace the cooler?	Cross shipping	Best for resale
Asus	3		Yes	N	Y	Y		N	#2
Diamond	5		N	N	Y	N		N
EVGA	Lifetime	Lifetime (w/ reg)	Yes	Yes	N	Y	Yes *E*	Yes	#1
Galaxy	2	3	N	N	N	Y		N
Gigabyte	3		? *G*	N	Y			N
MSI	3*		Yes	Yes only for 2 years	Y	Y	Yes *MSI*	N	#2
PNY	3(?)	Lifetime			N	Y		N
Powercolor	2		N	N	Y			N
Sapphire	2		N	N	Y			N
XFX	2	Lifetime (with registration within 30 days)	N	N	Y		Yes, if contact XFX first *X*	N
Zotac	1 accept double dissipation (lifetime)	Lifetime of the gpu (when the gpu is not manufactured anymore the lifetime warranty is gone)	N	N	N	Y		N

 

If anyone can help me update this warranty list (its about a year old atm) that would be awesome. I would love to keep an up to date list on this forum. Possibly make it a sticky (just because i have seen a lot of questions about if a certain gpu under warranty)

I'm almost 100% confident that it should be yes for AMD for EVGA.

So zotac is <1 year

FYI evga is lifetime with reg with PAYMENT

Here are some peoples experience with the honoring of the warranty

Also Gigabyte does have cross shipping

I'm equally confident that it's a No.

 

Also, the info for MSI looks correct AFAIK (currently dealing with my 2nd RMA from them), although I've not had any experience regarding the replacement of the cooler or the thermal goop etc.

Does replacing the stock heatsink for watercooling on a EVGA GPU void warranty even if the stock heatsink is put back on?

EVGA has a 3 Year no registration warranty I believe. My EVGA GPU died less than a month after the 3 Year Warranty period. I was told it was not under warranty anymore
