Mean Machine Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 So, last night, I was out running some errands, and stopped at an e-tailer that sells games, DVD's, computer hardware and home electronics. The original plan was to pick up my new point-and-shoot crap camera I bought for ~55€, just for fun. Once there I saw that they had a Z68A-GD80 open box in stock, so I figured I'd buy that as well... Happy I did. Below is what greeted me when I got home (also, the first picture with my new camera, turned out okay): I noticed that there was a stock cooler mounted on it when opening the box, so I removed the cooler...

K404 Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Open box customer return? Of course, anyone dumb enough to leave their CPU in a board for return deserves limited sympathy, but at the same time..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, anyone dumb enough to leave their CPU in a board for return deserves limited sympathy, but at the same time..... Not sure whether it was a return or a board back from RMA that the store had tested, and frankly, I couldn't care less. Gotta test it later on, don't have a good cooler at the moment though. Maybe I should buy another open box mobo and see if someone's left an H100 on it or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mean Machine Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 Oh, and I have a special announcement for Massman as well... The CPU works. It was just a little problem with Hypers in the wrong slots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
