RMA Experiance?

I bought a Gigabyte around the time the Core 2 Dup's hit the market. Its been flaky to say the least, and now it wont boot. Im replacing it with a new motherboard (which I will post in another thread) but Gigabyte needs me to fill out an online form for RMA (which means I need access to the internet and if I only had 1 computer I would be ****ed.) I was wondering if any companies sent out replacement boards while you send back yours?

**** you Gigabyte.

MOst comanies will offer advanced RMA if you ask the right way. I had to RMA my gigabyte 965p DQ6 a long time ago without headache

Green Jello Sucks!

(mods: not criticizing the member, its the bands theme song... they were called green jello originally)


Gigabytes RMA is slow but not really any slower then other RMAs .. lots of companies (I dont know about GB) will ship you a new unit (you buy it) then credit you when they recieve and inspect the unit you send back.

I forget what it is called though.

EDIT: Oh advanced RMA that sounds about right I guess
