Okay I've decided the problem lies with the cpu. I've bought this from Scan.co.uk so I'll probably have to get the credit card and small claims involved before I get an rma for it. I've still got some testing but I might as well start the procedure.

TP was this an oem or retail cpu? -
It came without a heatsink which I think is OemComment

wonder what the oem time warranty is from scan. they'll probably tell you that it was 1 month.Comment

Here it's generally one year for tray/OEM and three years for boxed/retail.Comment

I doubt very much that it's one month. Besides the web site doesn't state whether it's retail or not on that product. Neither does it on the invoice.
Just checked the Emailed invoice that doesn't say anything about Oem or retail either.Comment

if you want a retail warranty, you'll have to find an AMD fan. If you don't send the cpu+original amd fan, then there's no retail warranty for you.Comment

on the subject of warranties, i think that in the UK and possibly this is european law, if you buy a new product it must by law be covered by the manufacturer for 1 year from the date of purchase, this applies to all items sold as "new". there is also an ambiguous law which covers "unreasonable failure" of goods up to 5 or 7 years old pending on the type of good, if it fails in this case and you can prove that it should have lasted longer you are entitled to compensation for the estimated value of whoever long the good should have lasted beyond failure. looked that up when a dyson went tits up, its all available online if anyone is remotely interested, just do a search on google.co.uk.is a flower best picked in it's prime or greater withered away by time?

@borat: ther's a EU directive that stipulates that _retail_ products must be covered by a 2yr warranty. Obviously OEM is not covered.Comment
