Is it not just that its stealing a bit for the Graphics? I have had a mobo die on me, but it was my fault, I'd been using a 300W PSU on a dual-core system (too lazy to go buy a new one)... didnt stop me claiming a new one off the warrenty though ;]... though I did get round to getting a 600w PSU =D
Oh, and theres something up with a board I happen to have by me, somethings overheating, (checked out RAM, PSU and CPU, and its not them) but since its a 800mhz system, I couldnt care less lol On Thu, Apr 17, 2008 at 9:29 PM, Farran Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Thu, 2008-04-17 at 18:43 +0100, Chris Smith wrote: > > andylockran wrote:> Andrew Oakley wrote that he'd only had two motherboards > die in the> last 20 years.> > I've not been so lucky, putting down around 5 > of my PCs failings to> the motherboard dying (albeit through some kind of PSU > surge in a> couple of cases).> > So how common is it?
