expresso Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 hi - ok i got the new psu back in and its running fine so far - didnt have any problems booting and not leds on the board which is great - but i am still wary yet - have to run it a while - i tried that psu calculations - - i dont think its correct - according to that - i need almost 900 watts i am watching the 12v now with smart and everest and what i did notice with the other one - was that is moved alot from 11.96v to 12.03v -- so not sure if that was a sign of going bad and not sure how long its been doing that - i just figured its ok to move a bit up or down - didnt really look like it was a big drop but i guess it matters now its at 12.03 and hasnt moved -- actually none of them moved - with everest - - i also got a psu tester and used it before putting it in my system to write down what the volts were brand new - so in case something goes haywire again - i can test it and compare it - i am happy its not the board - pain in the butt to take out and RMA that - i did call DFI and got the RMA form and called AMD for the cpu in case it was that - another thing i did notice with the other one was that when i powered it up - it took a sec or two to start and sometimes the yellow light on the board didnt go on right away - by the memory - took a few secs then kicked in - but didnt boot then - just 4 leds on the board - now the yellow lights are on right away and boots fine - do you know if i can still use my OC setting in reloaded or do i have to clear them out and enter them again ? i read to do that after a bios update - but not sure with the psu problem if i have to clear them or can i use them thanks - i hope this one lastes longer than a year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
uneedav8 Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 How do you contact DFI for an RMA request? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
expresso Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 i emailed tech support from the DFI website -- or i think theres a email for RMA - cant remember now - i got a email back in a few days -- dont expect to hear back in a day - i think it was 3 days before i got a email with a form to download - you would have to fill that form out and fax it back or email it back to see if its under warranty - i think my problem is solved with the new psu so i guess it wasnt my board or Cpu - i never used the RMA from DFI -- but i kept the form in case i would need to in the future -- always good to have - check the website - you have to look around for a while but it should be there somewhere or if not - just email someone there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
