thank god amds are built tuff

LOL

Like the Gieco commercials, where the caveman gets all pissed off. That'd be epic. A scene of a dude putting in an Intel proc then saying "So easy, a caveman could do it", then the next scene is a Caveman building something insanely hard... like a 50-computer beowulf cluster. While scoffing at the Intel person.

That would be the best commercial ever. I'd plus rep you... but I already gave you one for something else. Gotta love non-existent hand drawn chicks with blue hair and unrealistically big boobs! I mean c'mon, who doesn't like that?

DaJe, You got balls the size of melons.

If I might also add, they are probably entirely made of solid Osmium.

I once bent about 10 pins on my socket 775 board I straightened them out using pin-nose tweezers and it worked fine!

Same thing happened to me the other week, actual screwed the Mobo.

Was this a 939 by any chance?

i'm not 100% sure becuase i\m not used to amd's but i think it is, let me go count the pins...haha. here is what it looked like.

[DaJe]

Before I had an 8800GTX, I had a 7950GX2.

These are all the pictures you need to see...

[xRyokenx]

Bah, our 6800XTs are good for now. Although, it would be nice to have a faster card... but that's just me trying for too much... I can't wait to see how Oblivion runs on this thing, that'll be awesome, and progbuddy showed me how to OC my CPU yesterday, but I'm not gonna screw with it, but he did up it to about 2.8ghz per core, and it runs quite a bit better.

[DaveW]

Yeah, that's either an AM2 (basically a 940) or it's a 939. I'm not counting the pins either

are you serious ??? wtf ! how did that happen ?

Exact same way this did, removed the HSF and the louzy zip decided the let go of the CPU. Afterwards, the mobo wouldn't boot, no beep codes, nothing, so the socket must have sustained some damage.

RMA the sucker !
