FFS!!! a fortnight, they promised me a 3-4 day turn around.

well i tried my mates ram in my pc today and it runs perfect, at normal speed, or over clocked.

mine wouldn't even pass memtest at standard setting (or even on auto) got loads of pics of bios setting and memtest failures as well, going to be sending them in with the ram. Its totally shot. so im back on my backup laptop at the mo 120MB of ram, celron 900. my god its slow.

but im going to get a refund and get some different stuff, either the Team Extreem stuff, or the Geil stuff my mate has got.

id give them a ring about your mobo, see wtf they are doing with it

They gave me a maximum 28 day turnaround when I sent it in Said that some faults they can diagnose themselves, others go back to the manufacturer. Not that big a deal, since I've got the corpse of a PC I can resurrect easily, though.
