Hi all,
I know most tempering on products aren't allowed and will void your warranty, but I also know EVGA tends to be flexible (allows you to repaste a GPU or put a waterblock without voiding your warranty, as long you have the original cooler when you send it and the liquid isn't what killed it) BUT I was wondering if flipping the fan in my powersupply would void my warranty? I have an EVGA 650GQ and Id like to make the fan an exhaust instead of an intake... the reason for this is the case I built in is an airtight case except for one intake and 2 exhaust (one being the powersupply) and it would optimize everything in there to flip it... (In win 901 is the case). Im worried that in case something happens the tempering would void my warranty, even if I'd flip back the fan prior sending in the original packaging?
 
*Edit* I'm in Canada, if that makes any difference

    Welcome to our forums Kevo05s_PC,
     
    I would encourage you to take a look at the warranty terms found at http://www.evga.com/support/warranty/power-supplies/ and would call your attention to the following bold lines.
     
    Product condition:
    This Limited Warranty is conditioned upon proper use of the Product by the Purchaser. This Limited Warranty does not cover:
    • Power Supplies that are modified by customer outside of factory specifications and/or not in factory condition.
    • Power Supplies with modification to the serial number and/or factory identification labels whether removed, relocated, falsified, defaced, damaged, altered or made illegible.
    • Cosmetic damages deemed outside of reasonable usage caused by deep scratches, cuts, cracks, dents, discoloration, neglect, dropping or mishandling the power supply.
    • Cut or modification to the factory cabling.
    • Opening of the power supply housing.
    • Power Supplies that are exposed to liquid, liquid residue or excessive humid environments resulting in rust, moisture, dampness, stains, corrosion or liquid spills on components, hardware or electronics. Burns or component Flare-ups as a result of a liquid accident or spill.
    • Direct usage of paint, submersion of the power supply in oil, use of adhesives or glues on any part of the graphics card, usage of solder to the PCB, electronics and/or component modification.
    • Exposure to cigarette tar residue, dampness, sand, dirt or excessive debris.
    • Power Supplies that are rendered non-functional or usable due an accident, collision with an object or tool, use of excessive force, neglect for care, exposure to fire or abnormal heat, flooding, dirt, windstorms, lightning, earthquakes, excessive weather conditions, theft, blown fuses, or improper use of any electrical source.
    • Defects or damage resulting from the use of a 3rd party product in conjunction or connection with accessories, products, software or secondary peripheral equipment not furnished for the usage with or approved for the Power Supply by EVGA CORPORATION.
    • Defects or damages resulting from improper testing, operation, maintenance, installation, service, or adjustment not furnished or approved by EVGA CORPORATION.
