Can anyone tell me if there are any stickers/trips on your sapphire card?

I am trying to find out if a card is in warranty so let me know what card you have and if you have found anything that would tell sapphire you modified/opened your card

I think it depends on the receipt from the store where you purchased your card, not the sticker. Besides, warranty for Sapphire can be a headache, you have to ship card all the way to Hong Kong.

Well I had a Sapphire HD2900Pro flashed to XT I had opened several times then I decided to put a third party heatsink cooler and it messed up. I talked to sapphire and shipped it back to get a new one.

Sapphire lists one of there warranty no no's would be an aftermarket heatsink so if they did have a sticker or something like that covering a screw etc then yes the sticker would matter

My 4890s as well as my 4850s had a sticker across the backplate holding the GPU cooler that said warranty void if removed.

Edit: see this post I made. Top GPU, right next to that towel thing, you see that bent sticker? Thats the warranty sticker right there.

I try to only buy cards that don't have stickers over the heat sink screws XD

If its in warranty just put the stock heat sink back on if you can if it had no stickers then most of the time your good to go : ]

I've return all sorts of stuff that technically I've voided waranty on.

They do not always have to go to Hong Kong. I have had to send them in before and it has always been in California.
