[gamr]

i didnt keep the original packaging, and there are little parts that i never used (e.g. noise sensor) that got thrown out

What part are you referring to? Motherboard?

The whole process is documented once you start the RMA.

It is best to send in only the part you want serviced. So no accessories. You might not get them back if you send them in. They have everything necessary to test their products.

mobo standoffs are gone. will they give me an issue about that?

do i need a cpu cover?

 

[Eximo]

Standoffs don't come with the motherboard. That would come with your chassis.

Ideally, yes you should have the CPU cover, but as long as you can prevent anything from touching the pins, that is good enough.

do i need a cpu cover?

If cpu socket pins get damaged for some reason during shipping , your RMA will be denied.
So yes - it's better to have cpu cover.
