jerks..... lol or should I say.... Intel Fan Boys!

What was you expecting? A used old CPU with no box? Lol.

No fan boys on here, I have AMD in my other rig.

well thats what i got when i RMAed my MOBO.... so i was expecting something like that.

anyway i OC to 4.6, and testing prime, and everything seems A-OK! so im going to let it run to test 10 or so, and if it dosent crash, im lowering my OC to 4.4. but so far 100% stable!

welp lesson learned. do not OC past 4.6 ever on this board!

ima calling it fixed! so thanks guys for the help! very much appreciated!

now addram, i shall see u on BF3 this weekend!

So basically you can fry the shat out of your CPU on purpose and get a brand new one for nothing? I'm going to try and get 7.0GHz on my A10-5800k on air!

lol i was VERY skeptical that AMD would accept my RMA....

This CPU requires a LOT LESS voltage to get the same OC! im almost at stock voltage at 4.4ghz! thats awesome!

No comment on mine lol. Except maybe they need to review their Rma procedures :)
