I am reading and hearing different answers as to what will happen If I do stick a water cooling block on it.

Ive heard msi are ok with it as long as you put it back together ok if you ever need a rma.
 
In general, as long as you don't kill the card in the process of fitting a waterblock, and can refit the original cooler so as it looks like it's never been removed, you'll never be in a position where you have no warranty due to fitting a waterblock.
 
^yep.

Msi are generally ok with it anyhow provided you don't damage the card in the process.

Only one or two manufacturers are a little tricky as they put void if removed stickers on the screw heads.
 
Msi put warranty void stickers on the screwheads now, but they let oCuk users remove the cooler last I heard, scottib(was an MSI rep at the time) iirc put this info up in matts AC Etreme thread.

But to be sure, for clarification, ask in CS.

With ScottiB not working there anymore perhaps it's different now.
 
He said it on his last day@MSI before he came to work at oCuk, don't know if he's still working here now though, but again for the op and anyone else looking to rip off an MSI cooler, ask CS first.
