For some time now, my fans have been spinning up to over 3400rpm from 70 degrees. I have read in various forums that this is a known problem and that it can be fixed with new thermal paste. Since I lose the warranty if I unscrew the graka, do I have to send it in?

Answer

Well, Slizza1 - the question is not quite so easy to answer.
I think sending it in makes little or no sense. digitec will hardly do it for you; MSI probably won't either.
I haven't "given" the DUKE a new WLP yet because I don't have the problem.
That's why I can't say exactly how complicated it would be.
However, I have already done this with other maps; the "tinkering" CAN - depending on the case - be somewhat demanding.
If you don't think you can do it yourself, you might have an experienced friend who can do it for you.
In most cases, however, it is possible without any problems
