Update: The Ultra X2 had a broken temp gaudge. The new ultra I got under warrenty is really quite. Im very impressed with the replacement and the Ultra Customer Service.
Your RMA shipping costs must be enormous. What is this, like 13 returns in the last 6 months for you?
Well i usually dont even look at your posts, and simply ignore you... but it sounds like your finally am being somewhat civil, though a bit critical. And yes, I have returned allot of items (Asus Motherboard and CPU, VideoCard, PSU, Replaced Gigabyte G3->DQ6, and 2xLiteon SATA drives which turned out to be an ASUS bios problem). Then again, I think you were one of the people to suggest an Asus Motherboard, which has now cost me allot of money. I probably payed $30 in RMA right now. However due to NewEggs great work, and continous ability to stand up and do whats right, I have ended up paying less then that. And would have paid ALLOT more if they required me to return the 2 LiteOns. Instead NewEgg gave me credit without having to return the item. After learning about the problem with the Asus P5B, I offered to pay for the one LiteOn drive that wasnt broken, however they refused to accept my offer.
Unfortunately I have built a system far beyond what 99% of the people around here have built, and their recommendations; though appreciated, have often backfired. I also have had some really bad luck, and made some mistakes. But its part of the game. Beign that the Core2Duo was so NEW when I bought it (it was out less then 2 weeks) I had to make allot of decisions without other peoples experiances to point to.
I have also done a MAJOR amount of modifications to wirers and other parts of the machine. These Modifications have cosed minor problems, but have eventually worked themselves out with work. Something expected when doing custom work.
I have spent money on parts I dont use, though I may be able to use in the future. As a new comer to Watercooling, I relied on the advice of FrozenCPU, and was burnt. The good news is that I have a great water cooling system for my next build that will be starting around January, when I put together a Computer DVR, CD/DVD Player, and a TV Tunner for my home audio and video system.
As a side note, I havent been on this site as much as I use to be. I really like to help out people, but these forums are under moderated and the flame/attacks that happens here is excessive. Instead of showing people compassion and solutions for their mistakes and problems, people here ridicule and put you down.
Clueless, pointing out my problems, without ever offering any sort of help or sympathy. Taking Clueless's history this is a comon behavior. There are dozens of examples of this. Just look at his post log.
He is probably pointing out my excessive problems so that he may load up and fire out a upcoming insult. It also implies that I am ignorant, which at times I am. The insults from him will come, I promise.
Its really to bad that he doesnt have compassion for me and others who struggle through a build. Sometimes builds just dont work out perfectly. I am unable to control everything.
As for a more friendlier environment, I would recommend you going to
http://www.ocforums.com if you want to help out.
For moderators who might read this, please fix these issues with flame. I will be welcome to come back and help out even more if the forum if moderators stopped people from engaging in such angry and malicous responses. This place has the opportunity to be a friendly place that could help allot of people, and could be fun for us. Instead we loose some of the best people available (such as Wusy) and as more of the people who care leave Thoose left will be the mean insulting people.
Lastly, Clue69Less will last less then 3 days on the forumz of OC without beign banned.
Just my opinion, and concern. I hope you will get better Clueless, and stop feeling like you have to bully people. I will pray for you to get over this defect in character and that you may grow spiritually as an individual.
