    2.4C Return?

    Hi guys, iv had my 2.4C for a while, and never actually ran Prime95 on it, without it being clocked, i ran it last night out of intrest, and it cant run it, died on 58minutes. Can i get this returned and replaced? it's only a few months old ? and i still have the booklet thing? :|

    thanks for replies, hopefully some one has had this and has got it sorted if it makes any differance it was the retail version.

    Cheers

    hmm is your cooling adequate - check your temps while running it (yes i know p4s have thermal throttling..)... its been running fine all this time, and the only problem is that it didnt complete prime95? games and everything run ok? could be ram or something maybe..

    You should have at least a 92mm on that little baby

    A 60mm fan on such a heatsink surely wouldn't give you adequete cooling
