I was gonna get a core duo e6300 with a mobo, final bid was 168.50 with 20 shipping. So 188.50 i figure sell the board for 30 + ship so it would have been like i got the cpu for 158.50. But someone outbid me at the last second. It was all sealed
Know anything about GFX if they would still be under "Lifetime warranty"
In my experience with Intel RMA all I had to do is tell them my proc was toast and sent them the bad one and they sent me a new one. No questions asked except a small lecture on making sure the case had adaquet air flow. But they werent going to fight me since the thermal protection never kicked in.
