Hello,
I just bought EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC GAMING ACX 3.0 Black Edition: 
 
Is it safe to run the UNIGINE benchmarks and stress test my GPU and run other stress tests too? Or should I wait until I get some kind of thermal padding?
 
Thanks

    Welcome to the Forum f3faweff323235
    Yes
    If you have fears then Do Not Overclock the GPU and Do Not Overclock the Memory.

    Is it covered by the warranty if I Overclock the GPU and I Overclock the memory and I run those stress tests/benchmarks? Do you expect I'll run into any issues if I do that?

    Yes it is covered under warranty.

    Physical modification and physical damage is what void the warranty.

    Heat, blown components, death by overclock, removing the cooler and replacing with a water block, is ALL covered.
