When overclocking a GPU does it void warranty? Are there brands that are fine with it?

How do they prove that you have overclocked? it was like with apple and jailbreaking, if you just reset it they would never know?

 

But an Intel Core i* **00k is fine to oc, and any X series ryzen

A8-7600 {} Gigabyte FM2+ Board {} CX430 {} Corsair Vengeance LP 8gb {} MSI GTX 760 2GB {}

Does not void the warranty, if you venture into custom vbios make sure you change it back to the original if you would ever have to send it back for an RMA.

It turns out you do have to buy a warranty for overclocking https://click.intel.com/tuningplan/

BAD! but i dont think they would be able to tell, so just make sure you turn of the OC if you need to

Is overclocking warranty more a peace of mind thing and failure wont likely happen?

failure could happen, but you will likely know before you overclock, if any failures happen its never usually the CPU, and the parts that power it
