    watercooling an evga card does not void warranty. If you RMA then you must put it back to original state.

    As long as you do not physically damage the card during the process of applying the waterblock, and if an RMA is needed you must return the card in it's original form (basically with the stock cooler back on).
     
    Be sure to keep the stock cooler and the BACK SCREWS safe. I placed caps on the screw part because I've had fun times searching through lots of junk to find those pesky screws that I should of marked and kept in the original box so I know where they are. 

    I will either find a way, or make one.

    Hello nickheller
     
     
    I can confirm that only physical damage and removal of the warranty sticker will void warranty. Adding any type of after market heatsink or a waterblock to the card will not void warranty. In the event you should need to RMA your product please restore the card to its original factory condition.

    Good job putting said sticker right on the memory chips on the back.
     
    I have no other choice than removing it if I want proper cooling with a good backplate (waiting for Aquacomputers active cooling backplate).

    What EVGA recommend if serial number is on backside...?
    Installation backplate over serial number or removing serial number on backplate.
    I mean if serial number is on PCB but not on memory.

    So, gently move the sticker to a better location, MilenaM. Just don't leave it off or lose it.

    I already complained on this.  You can move the sticker, by "remove" they mean you can't ship them a card back with no sticker at all on it.

    I thought on that, maybe is best to stick on top of backplate in corner or somewhere where no little holes, better than keep somewhere else.
    Some people on you tube install backplate directly over sticker, I thought that's not good even if thermal pads are not in that area..

    I'm planning on peeling mine off and putting it on a notecard that goes back in the original box along with the stock cooler and screws.

    Alright will do that, thanks. I wasn't sure if that sticker is like these Microsoft ones that break if you attempt to remove them. Still testing the card on air right now, block + plate wont be here until end of next week.
