night Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 ive been having the wierd 'windows has shut down' BSOD for a couple months, so i finally dug out memtest tonight and i have one stick that appears to have cancer :mad:. anyway, i messed with the bios some and at 2.6v windows wont boot, at 2.7 (what ive always kept it at) i get like a dozen errors before 2% coverage, and at 2.8 ive got 3 errors in 10%. im gonna keep cranking the voltage, but i really dont think it will last. the 2nd stick passes through a few 100% coverage without a prob. this is an NF7-S v2, oh, and its the XMS-PC3500C2. i never even got around to trying to oc cuz i have a locked barton.

Wired Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 No heat spreader, no warranty :( http://www.corsairmemory.com/corsair/warranty.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
night Posted February 22, 2005 Author Share Posted February 22, 2005 well that makes no sense, not like it proves what they are anymore than the spd, but i'll dig around for them. ive moved twice since then :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Even if you put them back on, I doubt you can get the warranty back on them, but that's up to Customer Service to decide. 1-888-222-4346 x0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted February 22, 2005 Corsair Employees Share Posted February 22, 2005 I am sorry, but if you have removed the label or heat spreaders that will VOID the warranty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wired Posted February 23, 2005 Share Posted February 23, 2005 AFAIK, all memory manufacturers have a similar warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
