Hello guys,
 
Let me please ask three questions concerning the mentioned RTX3080 FTW3 Ultra when it comes to replacing a fan in case of technical problems with the fans.
 
- Id like to ask whether its possible to replace one single fan or need to change all three fans at onces?
- Also if the warranty would expire when I would replace it on my own?
- Nevertheless, is it even possible to get those kind of spare parts from EVGA or is there also a shortage of fans since we are running short in general?
 
I would appreciate your kind support and thank you very much in advance!
 
Bye

    1) Yes, it is possible to replace the fans as it is on almost any cooler, however you will have disassemble the heatsink to do so
     
    2) If you modify or otherwise alter the stock heatsink and fans, your warranty will be void. 
     
    3) No, EVGA does not sell individual parts for DIY repairs. 
     
    Just send the card in for warranty service should a fan fail during it's coverage period. You can also if you wish just remove the stock cooler and use something like the AIO conversion kit or another 3rd party after market cooler for it. Just make sure you keep the stock cooler since it will need to be reattached should you need to RMA it.

    Apologies but I had to correct such a mistake. 
     
    No, modifying the cooling solution will NOT void your warranty.
