I tell them that it slept with another cpu that wasn't clean, and now it has this burning sensation when it runs...

Or I tell them it doesn't post until I swap cpu's.... :laughing:

Reason: it eslopode after 2v lol

nah this chip is acting funny though, will boot 1 core 2 threads randomly lol was on the phone with rom and was like wtf? where are my cores? lol

this is why I always wondered why people were selling or giving away the stock clock. I know hey wanted mine when I RMAd?? Got a full new retail version back - Let us knnow what you get bac

I dont even want the w3680 cooler, its the same as a bloomfield one :o stupidest thing ever, maybe because its lower profile?

grrrrr!

I've been trying to talk or chat for over a week, but I can't find time to do it during their stupid 7-5 o'clock business hours. I work hard and don't have a 1/2 hour to deal with these bozos during bankers hours.

I'll do it for ya mate, send me your cpu and HS fan info and address :D
i get an hour lunch, then my coworker gets an hour lunch so I just tr0ll during that time

SPLIGS service is top notch! :thumbsup: :D

Thx for the offer Al, but I'll get to it eventually. Just venting.
