I ordered it off of Amazon.
Oh yeah and until the damaged motherboard gets sent back I've lost £93 on that motherboard.
In other words, I haven't trusted myself in the past to build PC's and that incident reminded me of that.
Oh if it’s amazon it should be quick then, I deliver amazon parcels her in Oz and they contract with my conpany, and we don’t get paid if they’re a few days late so I’m assuming they’re doing the same over their
This time I'm going to have my older and way more experienced brother supervising me every step of the way.
First rule of building computers: if it doesn't feel right, stop immediately
Yeah the original motherboard said it would arrive on the 15th to the 20th.
And it ultimately arrived several days before that date.
I've saved countless parts from being broken or damaged by following that rule and looking up videos
Good rule.
I was being more careless than usual (I'm usually incredibly cautious (at least when it comes to static electricity0 because my brother had said I didn't need to worry so much about static electricity.
And I expanded that warning to cover all of the components and PC building in general.
This was the cause of the mistake.
I remember one time I was slapping in a new processor and the arm wouldn't close down on it correctly. Little bit more tension and it still wouldn't go down. Stopped right there and looked up a video only to realize I had one row of pins just slightly out of line.
Saved my ass another hundred some dollars
I still haven't checked to see if my CPU is damaged from that incident (my brother assured me it's fine).
That's a big maybe, it's gold we're talking about. That shit is like the plastic of the metal world. Bends like nothing else.
Hmm...
Well we'll see when the motherboard arrives.
It's still in its warranty so.
Yeah I ordered it less than a month ago.
All of the new components (as far as I am aware) are still in 1 month of their warranty.
I just inspected the CPU again.
It looks okay (I guess).
I think so anyway.
You read the warranty right? Just to make sure that they aren't gonna dock you for fucking it up too bad? I've had that happen before when I opened the back to my rig to look for a fan problem.
I did not read the warranty.
*Gets packaging*.
Yikes, may wanna do that
"Three Year Limited Warranty".
Thank fuck.
Also has installation instructions (play crowd of people facepalming meme).
Female transitioned to male and found out the hard way thet there's female priviledge...
Whenever I start thinking about and visualizing the performance increases I start getting very eager to play on it.

This is despite the fact that none of them even understand the concept of electricity
