To RMA a perfectly good CPU is dishonest if you have already opened and used it. If it didn't overclock like you wanted to that's not intel's problem and not the vendors problem. This kind of thing just raises the price of CPU's for the rest of us. I RMA'd a CPU before because i checked results others were getting by the batch code. So... unopened i RMA'd the processor. Now the vendor can still sell it at full price as it's been unopened. Just my two cents on that type of practice. That's assuming you are running at stock volts. Now overvolting the chip and overclocking and THEN returning it is just downright criminal.

On another note i REALLY wish i had paid for faster shipping for my 'G0' from tankguys. Fedex has scheduled delivery for 8/14 . Bummer.
