Rofltroll Posted December 16, 2012 Posted December 16, 2012 Found a hardware store that was willing to test my CPU. I'll keep you posted. Consider yourself lucky. Do confirm their T&C before letting them testing your CPU. Their what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rofltroll Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) All the components are fine 'sep for the motherboard. Since the CPU is ok apparently my best solution is to simply change the socket in the mobo since it most likely didn't burn out and just the pins are bent. Anyone know a place in EU i could order one from? Edit: found one already Edited December 20, 2012 by Rofltroll Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wevsspot Posted December 20, 2012 Posted December 20, 2012 Rolf - make sure you get an estimate on what they are going to charge you to replace the socket. Have the estimate in hand before authorizing them to perform the repair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rofltroll Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 Replaced socket and NOPE. Doesn't work. From what I can tell it's probably a fault on their part but it's fine since i have a warranty for the job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 They didn't test the repair prior to returning the board to you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
