Now to see how long warranty takes, seeing as the board was bought from Newegg in the USA earlier this year, and I'm now back in Australia again.
ouch sorry to hear mate.. take photos and all of the damage - good to document everything before sending back for RMA

I am going to use it with a DFI T3EH8 and a W3520. So what happens if the RAM stuffs up?
