Thread won't be lock, all threads in KB shared the same status.

We are building the content of KB, thread worth a place in KB should not be left in main forum subjected to regular forum pruning, it will be gone 6 months down the road without new reply.

Thanks for the effort, good job.

Is this the only way to RMA the intel processor?

Can we do a exchange via distributors etc. Corbell, Ban Leong?

Edit: I've sold away my stock cooler and I'm using a Cooler Master Hyper 101.

My I5-750 is hitting 70 degrees at idle and 99 degrees at load.

I've reseated my heat-sink many many many times. I suspect the processor is faulty. But I don't have my stock cooler any more, what should I do?

You could actually buy a stock cooler from sls.
The coolers don't have serial numbers, they just have part numbers for different manufacturers.

eh anyone recently just RMA their chip? How long it took ah?

 

[Microstar]

With regards to the performance tuning protection plan, does the cpu have to be dead before the plan can be activated?

If yes, can someone share the safest and fail-proof way to kill a cpu

Fedex delivered my return to Intel last week, but they haven't sent me any email confirmation till now. Should I be concerned?
