I purchased it on 7/9/11 and it's clearly written
Warranty-With 3 Years Warranty from Manufacturer.:(Whats wrong?Something out of the ordinary?
And I purchased it from this Ebay shop-*myworld.ebay.in/indiainfotech1/?_trksid=p4340.l2559

Ohk.2 years warranty is okay with me,even though I was promised 3. :( But,can anyone find me a system/GPU cooler as per the conditions in my first post?I can stretch my budget.I want to pay via cheque/DD/cash.
Lynx hasn't restocked their items yet and I am worried about running my PC with the case open.I am sure,it would clog my GPU with dust much faster.And I don't wanna void the warranty on my card.:).Any help would be much welcome.
Regards,
moltenskull.

^^ your load gpu temp in safe zone - no need for a gpu cooler - if you don't want to keep the cabby side panel open get a good cabinet ( mention your budget ).

I can't buy a new case,at least not now.So,I want to add some case fans.Will 120mm fans fit in my pc-HP p6140in?It currently has a single 92mm(maybe) fan.Will two 120mm fans fit?(one on the side panel and another at the back of the case)Please help me out,I am really confused about what to do.

Hello,
I took my PC to a computer shop.They told me that 80mm fans would be fine and showed me that 120mm fans would be too large ie they would not fit.:(
So,I ordered two of these-
Flipkart: Cooler Master BC 80 mm White LED Fan Cooler: Cooler
Are they okay or I could have got a better deal? :?: I am still open to suggestions.
Will post back with results in a day or two i.e. whether there is proper airflow within the case or not etc.One thing more,I have a stock 92mm fan at present.Should I replace that one with an 80mm one coz it is very slow in pushing air out of my already cramped cabinet?
Thanks a lot everyone for your help and patience and a special thanks to topgear for consistently answering my questions.:)

^^ the deal is very good and even I'm using those fans ;-)

if the 92mm fan ( at rear side of the cabby ? ) is too slow replace it with a new 80mm fan.

Woah!Added the extra fans today!Keeps the temperature exactly the same as with the cabinet open!Never thought a couple of fans could have made such a difference...... :D.....Earlier,with the case closed,the card was idling in the mid-50's ,now it idles at 45(Temperature here is 36'C)!Thank you,everyone !:) Load temps are down to 68'C from 74'C! :)
Topgear-I did not replace the 92mm fan at the back because there are no suitable mounts for an 80mm fan.And thanks a lot for your help! :)
Regards,
moltenskull.
