Well, that was bound to happen. Inno3D is the first manufacturer to warn cryptocurrency coin-miners that they are possible voiding the warranty on their cards. See, graphics cards are not design to do full load 24/7/365, and that is exactly what miners are doing.
We're pretty sure that the RMA return rates have gone up ever since the mining hype started. Inno3D is the first to issue a warning. Thing is though, if a card breaks down after all that abuse, how would Inno3D ever figure out that it was used for mining?
It brings up the question, what is the lifespan of a graphics card with normal usage? I had this discussion once with folks from Nvidia, and in their believe with pretty hefty daily gaming that would average out roughly at 5 years. At one point the GPU will start leaking. If you place that 5 years into perspective compared to what miner are doing with them, I dunno maybe the cards are bound to die after a year or less?

what did they mean by this ?
I was about to post something very informative but noticed you posted the gay nigger frog. This meme is very forced and is now recognized as a symbol of homosexuality by most. It's no better than furryposting now
Anyway I hope you have a horrible day and get throat cancer.
I like that frog, so I save it for future use.
I don't know what to say about your news, since I don't mine with my 750 TI OC.
Nice frogi, keep em coming.

All the graphics juice leaks out if you run it too hard.

I'm not gay, I hate them too. Frog makes no harm, only to SJW, my multicolored hair friend.
On the subject, is it profitable to mine bitcoins or eth with my amd 2.8 ghz, 6 gb ram and 750 ti? My electricity bill is 35USD monthly.

Frog is SJW now you retard. The meme got tainted with facebook-ism.
C'mon guys just stick the the ITT.
Capacitors blow and the juices inside leak. In reality though, the bearings/lube in the fans go out first.

Alright then, I'll use a different frog from now on
