Inno3d warns that mining can break the warranty of your cards

Inno3D is one of the largest graphics card manufacturers and the first to warn about the consequences of mining on its products.

Mining may break the warranty on Inno3D cards

Like all electronic products, nothing is forever and as we use them, their useful life is shortened. It is believed that a graphics card may have a 5-year lifespan before it begins to fail using it for an approximate number of hours every day, for example, playing video games that squeeze any graphics card 100%. This is just an average and of course there are graphics cards that have survived much longer.

With the advent of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrency mining, a normal graphics card is working 100% 24 hours a day, so the lifespan it may have is greatly shortened.

A warning message

Inno3D is the first manufacturer that wants to heal in health by removing from the warranty those graphics cards that have been used for mining.

The manufacturer has not commented on any of this on its official site or under any statement, simply added this warning on new graphics cards that have been arriving in stores.

A reddit user recently purchased a GTX1060 6GB Ichill x3 V2 with the surprise that Inno3D had added a label on the box that leaves a fairly clear message regarding using the graphics card for this purpose.

What we ask ourselves, and surely you do too, is how does the manufacturer know that the card was used for mining? It's a mystery.
