Wtf, its not cus of that green stuff is it? How can they say its damaged when it clearly isnt?

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

I'm uploading some pictures now. They should help.

Thing is, i did some googling and if a socket has 3+ damaged pins, it doesnt work... so how come mine worked before i sent it?

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

Any chance you could get a camera with Macro mode? Cant really see on those pics

And did you not check for bent pins when you bought it?

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

I glanced it. Never really thought about it. Will do from now on though.

I don't think i have a camera with 'macro' mode.

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

most cameras have macro mode, its represented my a flower icon normally. Lets you focus real close.

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

I've taken afew picture with that mode, but it doesn't really help. I can see one definate pin with a missing top.

My question is, how did that happen with the computer on? I woke up and it was broken...

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

Like I tried to convince you before, OcUK is crap and its B-grade for a reason, they probably sold you the board like that, got £100 out of you and are now using their policy on bent pins not to return it. :ohwell:

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

surely Trading Standard won't enjoy that.

Still waiting on a repl from OcUK

I'm not buying from there again, i've told them. From now on it's ebuyer.com and scan.co.uk (given time).

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

Trading Standards wont like it, but it will be a bitch to prove if that is the case.

You heard back from Asus yet?

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

Havn't told them anything yet.

I'll send a message now.

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

Good, good, no point involving trading standards if Asus are good enough to take over. Explain everything, including the fact about maybe not checking for bent pins, even tho you should have to.

Ketxxx · Apr 30, 2009

I still don't see any bent pins, just the green stuff. Regardless of being B grade or not, the product itself still has to be in working order and of merchantable quality, if indeed the board was shipped with a broken pin, OCuk likely already knew about it. Nomatter which way you spin this OCuk are in the wrong.

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

I think the NB is enough proof. I have screenshots from that.

Ive just sent an email to Asus. Still no word from OcUK.

Ketxxx · Apr 30, 2009

You have to get trading standards involved a lot more or this will go on forever.

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

I agree to get Trading Stanards involved but Asus might get a new board to Moon quicker

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

Yea, gunna see what Asus' and OcUK's reactions are before i involve TradingStandards.

MoonPig · Apr 30, 2009

Still no word from OcUK. Looks like tomorrow then.

Just out of interest. Whats better:
OCZ Platinum XTC 1066MHz 2x2GB
or
Buffalo Firestix 1066MHz 4x1GB

Also, you looking for a "640GB Western Digital WD6400AAKS", Alex?

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

Might still be why?

Oh and in theory firestix could OC better, but OCZ requires less of NB as its only two sticks

kyle2020 · Apr 30, 2009

Do I go for an EK-Supreme (acetal) someones selling quite cheap and delve into the world of H20 again? If I do Ill mount a triple rad off the back using some rad mounts, remove the HDD cage and slap a pump there, etc? Im tempted. Very tempted.

Hysteria · Apr 30, 2009

Finally been here 2 weeks & can offer up some of my gear to you fine folks.

Got my piccies all sorted, some DDR2 800Mhz ram,Belkin KVM & 4870 up for grabs soon in the B/S/T section

Need to pay for the P5Q & 4890 somehow

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

WC is such a waste of money IMO, and poses way too much risk for my liking. The performance to cost ratio really isnt worth it if you ask me.

kyle2020 · Apr 30, 2009

But it looks awesome and load temperatures are seconded only by phase and all that

If I can get the supreme cheap ill consider it.

alexp999 · Apr 30, 2009

What would you WC?

kyle2020 · Apr 30, 2009

CPU and maybe NB.
