ROFL

Actually I'm quite surprised how well the PCB held up. It's still in one piece?

I can see the NB, but don't forget the SB and the BIOS chip - you know how manufacturers are difficult regarding RMA's when parts are missing...

Hahah

Yea the pcb is still one piece.

I've lost the damn BIOS (bits)......so I need to find that.

hehe

Haha yes indeed....

Please note the socket cap securely in place for proper RMA procedures.





Also , back into it's original packaging ;



Heheh....

Off into the mail.

Yes. The ever-so-important socket cover.

Seriously - don't tell me you got a RMA number for this?

I'm waiting the replies from ASUS/NVIDIA as that should be rather interesting and I hope you're going to post them.
