| Re: Bad CPU?
Ok, I've had it up to here with this ****. I'm about to go bat**** crazy lol. I have concluded that it's the PSU. Still cant get past more than 2 passes on IBT. I've concluded that it's the PSU. I noticed that the +5V rail drops to 4.83V when under load which seems like it could be a problem. Now it's time to RMA my PSU. I've experienced 4 RMA's in 1 build. Murphy's Law FTL :/
Anyone used Corsair RMA? Do I need to include anything else besides the PSU when I ship it to them?

Oh, I did get my RAM back lol. Installed a fresh copy of Win7 7600, updated BIOS, cleared CMOS, and tried just about everything. Idk what could be bad besides the PSU. I've had to replace everything else -.-". It's just my luck.
