Around 3 years ago or so i built my first closed-loop water cooling system.
Today the video card (XFX|HD-697A-CNFC HD6970 2GB) is starting to be old and i noticed some lag in FarCry4 @ Ultra Gfx
I am now looking to upgrade the video card and i want to get it water cooled.
I am willing to spend a multiple hundreds dollars to get an high-end video card that will last me a couple of years (to avoid the trouble of having to mess with modifying the WC system).
But i am worried about losing my warranty. What's the point of spending something like $700 on a video card if it die 2 days after you put the water cooling block on it and lose your warranty ?
Is there any company selling a good video card with a water block and a decent warranty ?
I noticed a couple of water cooled video cards on newegg (at over $1000) but they have their independant pump and radiator. I'd prefer to include it with my current loop to avoid adding more fans and more noise (or else what would be the point of having a closed-loop WC just for my CPU? lol).
