If you modified the bracket they can void you warranty based on that. The card must be returned in factory condition when RMA‘ing it. You will also need to replace the thermal pads you destroyed and reapply both the thermal paste on the GPU and the thermal putty on the VRM.
They may work with you on a fee for the thermal pads and missing putty. The modified bracket I’m not so sure on. You will need to contact them directly and see wha they say.
