  • All this talk of upgrading your Dells brings to mind a question. Back In My Day (when we didn't have to tell kids to get off our lawns), opening up the case of a name brand computer (Dell, HP, Compaq, ect...) would void your warrenty. Is this still the case? I was thinking about sneaking a second NVIDIA card in mine, but it's less than six months old. Don't want to shoot myself in the foot if the CPU decides to randomly catch on fire...

    Turn the case around so you can see the back. Look for a sticker that says something like "If this seal is broken warranty voided" If that's present then yes, opening the case voids the warranty. It isn't likely to be there. Opening a PC case simply to dust it out is now considered vital maintenance even by Dell and HP.
