Not too long, I had power go out this week and when I powered it up, 1 or more fans was slow to spin up, I could hear it.
Also, when I did power it up and started F@H, the frame time got worse, upto 16+ min per frame
So it's time to change them out, new fans should be here by this Wed or Thu.

They use 92mm fans? At 53 db those are going to be super noisy.

No more than the CoolerMaster Blade Master 92mm fans I have in it now.
Why don't you use 120mm fans?

For CPU 1-3 that would work but CPU 4 there is no room at the top of the case.
As you can see, I had to move the top fan to the outside of the case, a 120mm would be too big.

Well, it's official, I'm going to call SM and WZ in the morning about ether repair or replacement or ordering a new MB. 
lets just say I did something stupid and now I'm paying the price.
I hate LGA sockets.

New MB on it's way, I payed for 2 day shipment so it'll be here Wed or Thu.
Ok I'll tell you what I did, I was swaping the ES 6276 chips out for real 6276's and was wiping the hold down bracket and snaged some of the pins in the socket (Homer Simson sound here)

Good news, 4p MB #1 is alive, so I'll build it into another folder and have 2 4p's I was able to get it tested and it posted, so all that work to fix the bent pins paid off.
