90 day warranty is a big turnoff for a 3-4k USD item.

Again - we are not building these cards, nor designing them. Xilinx provides what they provide. The reality is there is no magic clock that makes these boards go up into smoke in 90 days. Theyre reliable, but fully controllable by the user and therefore can be abused and damaged through carelessness in ways that are impossible to tell from hardware failure. 90 days covers actual defective hardware.

Regardless - here are the terms, no one forces you to buy. You must decide yourself.

Sales should be live today, once we get green light.

so basically if we stick to only your officially sanctioned bitstreams we should be withing card limits. its just if we load others we may destroy the card if we dont know what we are doing?

The way that I would see users destroying their card is operating bitstreams that push things to the extreme while not providing adequate cooling.
OR
Using a long molex chain to power multiple risers that would surely melt under the load.
OR
Using a sata connector to plug into the riser which isn't rated for 75W.
