I have been talking with a tech from OcUK today, and they have tested my current processor and found no faults with it at all..

But the guy I talked to understands my frustrations, and went ahead and sent me out another processor anyway!!!

It will be here tomorrow, I just hope that it sorts out this issues I have been experiencing..

Even though the CPU worked for them, I am still adamant that it is the IMC on that particular processor that was damaged, both mobos didn't detect the stick of RAM in the first white slot, and this happens with both of my tri channel kits...

Also, I have tested each stick of RAM individually with Memtest boot disc, and they all ran for 20 passes without a single error, I also tested with 2 PSU's, 3 GFX cards, multiple HDD's, and several OS'es, and each configuration gave me the same results..

I guess I will find out tomorrow when the new CPU arrives..

Anyway, a big hats off to the techs @ OcUK for shipping out a replacement chip even though they never found any faults with my current one!!!

I can't express how delighted I am over all of this!!!

I won't shop anywhere else now when it comes to PC hardware..
