I just ordered my card and ran into the report from TH. Should I be worry or is the card fine. MSI did respond to the report and card still has a 3 year warranty.

Here is a thread with some peoples opinions on the whole situation. I have a 670 PE and I have been happy with it so far. If for some reason something happens to it, well then we always have a 3 year warranty to fall back on.

1. MSI respects the result which is tested by Tom’s Hardware, but we have much confidence and believe our products would not cause any customer RMA concerns.
2. Since MSI designs these custom products with overclocking in mind, we “supercharge” these cards because we’re anticipating enthusiast to overclock. Because of this design decision and the higher component quality, we’re able to provide more power to the board resulting in higher and longer GPU Boost operation without reducing the lifetime of the graphics card or warranty term.
3. MSI’s all graphics cards including GTX 670 and GTX 660 Ti passed strict test and stand behind our products with a 3 year warranty.
