I had that happen to me a year ago with a 3000+ Winchester that I bought from monarch. You bought yours as retail, right? I bought mine as retail, and the green packaging on the inside of the retail box was all shattered, and the CPU and the Stock Heatsink made out with each other the whole ride with FedEx.

I saw this as AMD's fault, since the retail box was NEVER opened, and arrived sealed, and damaged. I felt bad for monarch, but hey it wasn't my fault.

Well, my OCZ plat 2 right off the bat just did SuperPI fully stable at 300x10 3-4-4-8 cpc on.

Looks like the x10 multi works now!!! I guess it was the freakin' divider!!!

I guess I'll have to sell my BH5 and stick with this ocz plat stuff. I just did superPI 1mb at 2.5-4-4-8, and running 32M right now... good stuff for what I paid!!!

I'm so glad that the x10 is functional now... 3.1+ghz here I come!
Hahaha, I KNEW it! :D Glad you got it working properly. :)
 
Aw dammit to hell, I paid 165 for my 144s, oh well. waiting on my dfi expert and a 7800 gtx now before I start overclocking. Can't wait to see what my ocz can really do, I had such a hell of a time ocing them before, and it was prolly just my damn winchester.

Oh yeah, bought from none other than tankguys, CAB2E 0540 FPMW.
Anyone know anything about this week and batch?
