Warranty void if removed

Recommended Posts

Funny thing to start the year.

 

As always I receive old/new computer to build or dismount.

A guy told me to check his celeron based system : He told me that it is not working good, not very stable, crashing.....

I dismounted the system(only the cpu heatsink lol).

And told him, it's because the cpu was too hot :D

Not the first time to see such stupidness. I've seen photos of AMD K8 (maybe the sellers thought that they're like K7 which had and open die and you could put a sticker or the package).

 

I'd say it's a rather common bug. I've heard about cases when the cooler was glued to CPU (thermal grease - WTF is this? :D ).

True, I have also some CPU that were glued to the heatsink, was hard to detach(I used a blowtorch to warm the heatsink) :D

 

 

Maybe the sticker is an alternative to save glue

(lower cost !!)

 

or to always use rma till warranty is over

You bought it like that or you added the sticker ?

I bought it exactly in that condition as shown at photo. When I asked shop staff "What the f*ck is that" he told me "I have no idea what this thing for. It was already stickered when we received it from our main office" :D
