RMA return still not working

Never known a CPU do something like this, it's always been working or DOA in my experience.

Good to hear Intel have a decent warranty team though!
 
Yeah same here last thing I suspected until I changed the ram around in a new mb.
It's got to go back to the Netherlands so might take a little longer, collection not till the 2nd either....
 
Could still be quick. A few years back I had a Plextor DVD drive die and got told to send it back to the netherlands, but they had it on a 24 hour service each way so it was no different from sending it to the UK from my perspective.

How much they were spending on couriers I wouldn't like to know!
 
Update, returned via DHL on the 02/12/15 to the Netherlands, just received an email today (04/12/15) replacement on it's way back to me via DHL.

Quite impressed indeed.
 
Oh bugger. I wonder if my 5820k has that fault, and me moaning at ASUS for 2 faulty boards with sketchy DIMM slots is actually the CPU?
 
Ha, can you get it to boot in a couple of dimm slots but not all of them, if so probably the memory controller on the CPU like mine, I never knew it could happen.

Check out my 'god damn you X99' thread. I listed a big description of what was happening. Basically, yeah - some slots act up when they are set in dual channel mode, but they all work with a single stick just fine.

RMA it if you still haven't sorted it, I'm thinking it's the same problem:(
 
Sorry for your issues mate. I read lots and lots of x99 board horror story's. It made me totally avoid x99 all together. Went skylake instead. Glad I did. Hope you get all your issues solved. Good luck
