They did ask me to send my RAM back also, but they were ordered at different times, so I have been told if I send it back and the RAM is found not faulty, I will then have to pay shipping and testing fees for the RAM also, which I am not willing to do as I know that there isn't anything wrong with my RAM..

I am 99.9% sure that it is a flaky mobo that is the cause..

I regret dealing with these people now, because of the hassle I am having with this system... Since buying this setup, I have seen an excellent bundle deal on the website where I got my CPU from, which consists of a D0 i920, the same mobo as me, 6GB of Patriot 1600MHz RAM, and a Titan Fenrir, all O/Ced to 4GHz for around £539, this made me feel sick when I first saw it, as I paid around about the same for all my gear, and it is unable to run stable @ stock, nevermind 4GHz!!!!

At least if I bought that bundle deal it would have been thoroughly tested first before being shipped out to me, so at least then I would know that the hardware I bought was working properly first before I built it up...

Can anyone tell me whether Gigabyte would replace the whole mobo if I returned it to them for testing, or do they just repair the damaged board???
