K404 Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 If a mobo failure takes the CPU with it, will Intel honour their RMA? (retail boxed CPU, still in warranty period) Thanks! Quote
Guest TheMadDutchDude Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 In general, Kenny, I'd say so as they can't prove the motherboard failure took the CPU with it. However, if it did cause an issue, send the motherboard manufacturer a message detailing the story. They may be more inclined to help you. Quote
TheGamingBarrel Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 Yes, however if they dont message your motherboard manafacturer as they will most likely get you a replacement. Quote
K404 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Posted January 14, 2016 Thankyou for the replies Because it's a daily runner that's failed, I was hoping to not....blur the edges of the situation... to get RMA I can just tell the whole truth. Great Quote
Administrators websmile Posted January 14, 2016 Administrators Posted January 14, 2016 Still busy killing hardware, Kenny? I thought you are retired from this As long as the cpu has no physical damage I see no reason why rma should not work Quote
K404 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Posted January 14, 2016 Still busy killing hardware, Kenny? I thought you are retired from this As long as the cpu has no physical damage I see no reason why rma should not work Was on a break, been toying with hardware the last week or so, remembering a few things. One thing I have remembered (entirely separate to this CPU,) is how many dead GPUs I have Not ready for LN2 yet, still months away. Quote
Guest TheMadDutchDude Posted January 14, 2016 Posted January 14, 2016 It would be nice to see you return, Kenny. Quote
K404 Posted January 14, 2016 Author Posted January 14, 2016 Thankyou There are still some projects i'd like to see completed... maybe one day/month/year Quote
Mr.Scott Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I knew you'd be back. Breaks are a good thing. Quote
Massman Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I'll just accept the fact that all my Nvidia 3D subs will soon have less points. Nice to see you around Kenny! Quote
K404 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Posted January 15, 2016 My "return" is nothing to do with my HWB break from the end of last year That was a personal fail Vs a fail in my interest in benching. I've very nearly had a two year break. Also... the "success" of my "return" depends on what I can score Vs everything that has an e-Power/A-Power attached. Maybe no-one will notice when I start benching again, though I do have a few to submit from some air & water fun I've had over the last couple weeks. One thing at a time though, I should get this RMA sorted Quote
K404 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Posted January 15, 2016 Back to the RMA: Intel ask extra questions if the PSU isn't latest-gen Quote
Dreadlockyx Posted January 15, 2016 Posted January 15, 2016 I'd say you just invent some bs. They're not going to come to your place and check it, are they ? Quote
K404 Posted January 15, 2016 Author Posted January 15, 2016 I have a taste for expensive luxuries. A clear conscience being one of the most extravagant :D Quote
