Seems strange someone would sell a board as dead instead of RMA. Im betting it's an RMA reject.

I contacted the seller a while back and she said she didn't know what an RMA was (not sur if she was lying or what). So, i dunno how this will turn out. Its 50/50 i figure. Either i can rma and get a board for cheap or ill get burned.

Im thinking that when you arrange the RMA, MSI will tell you by the serial if the board was already rejected or not. Then you will know if the seller is honest or not.
