I pulled this from a working system, and by 'working' I mean 'it booted to its previously installed winXP desktop with absolutely no fuss and everything seemed fine in the BIOS.' I didn't test it extensively or even notice there was a problem until I took it out.
It's pretty warped right under the CPU socket & all those heavy heat sinks:
So should I bother pulling my P4 apart to swap it in or am I just going to have an endless bunch of trouble? Would be a shame to toss it as it's a nice clean board otherwise. Asus P5Q w/ Core 2 Duo E8500 @ 3.16 GHz.
