Hi,
Ok so, recently I built my own system, however upon receiving a bunch of BSOD's, running memtest and being greeted with a ton of errors, I concluded the board/RAM was faulty so I had an RMA issued.
I received a reply saying my RMA was 'rejected' due to damaged PCI-E tracks, and there was nothing they could do about this as the warranty was void.
So, I've since ordered a new board (not very happy about this), and I ask you this;
- How could this have happened? afaik I was extremely careful handling the components.
- How can I prevent this when doing my next build?
If it's any help, the board was an Asus P8Z68-V Pro.
I appreciate any help you guys can give![Smile :) :)](/data/assets/smilies/smile.gif)
