I Feared, it happened, or did it?

Bad news...

Pc power and cooling says my power supply is perfectly fine, it passed all their tests(With flying colors), including 48 hours at max load.

This means I actually have to use my Abit RMA request now.

Once I get my PSU back I will shove in my old 965P DS3 and test my quad core, to determine if it is indeed a quirked Mobo..

I guess this experience can only prove how wonderful PC power and cooling is with their 5 year warranties. (They have longer ones though)

You heard it here first folks Hopefully abit has a decent RMA process.

good... but bad to hear this!

I hope all works out for you, especially with abit. I have the IP35 Pro. It would be nice to know that if something goes wrong.......they'll stand behind it.

I already have one compliant about the Abit RMA Process.

They charge you for shipping, that is they make you pay 15$ in my case so they can ship the product back to you.

PC Power and cooling didn't do this, I only had to pay for it to be shipped there, not there and back..

Ya, when i rma'd my evga board, they sent me the new board, and had a prepaid ups tag for me to ship it back.

Good News.

Abit, although did not say anything about what the problem was, they are shipping me another board and the Serial number is different than the one I sent them, which Can only mean one thing! NEW BOARD!!

So this hopefully means my CPU is still alive.
And it is comming back today!!
