Is the Broken Fan Blade affecting your GPU warranty?
Is the Broken Fan Blade affecting your GPU warranty?
I recently purchased a brand new GTX 1050 Ti OC Dual Fan from Zotac about three weeks ago. It seems I damaged one of the fan blades while removing it from my setup. Can I get a replacement for my GPU? I don't mind if it's a full swap or just a fan change. The fans are still spinning, but they're getting much louder now.
Service centers frequently encounter situations such as this, seeking guidance on voiding product warranties at service centers.
Yes, there is physical damage involved. Service centers often look for such issues when voiding product warranties at service locations. There seems to be a possibility of replacing the fan. I’m okay paying about 10 dollars for a single fan, as long as it works properly and cools the card as before. However, I don’t want a 'get nothing service' after sending it back because I live far from where I bought it, which means extra costs and inconvenience. Also, I’m worried about buying a more expensive cooler fan from another brand.
