So managed to speak to OCUK, long conversations... but they have agreed to replace the motherboard, refund the price differene for both the AMD chip and the motherboard, which according to today's price, it's £60 in total... yesterday's price, it would have been £90... oh well, at least the threat of sending the whole machine back to them did make them think twice...
We will see what happens with the new motherboard, if it's still fucked then I will return the whole thing...
