Quick question guys. Unfortunately, even a new motherboard hasn't solved the issues I was having with my pc. so it's being shipped back complete as a self-built. Otherwise I could be until judgement day swapping out every single component trying to isolate it.:xgrin:
I am hoping Parcelforce will come and pick up the pc tomorrow. I've packaged it in the box Novatech sent me.
But I was a bit worried about horror stories about the heatsink being ripped off the motherboard. I have installed a case fan in my Antec 1200, so that is actually "propping" the Noctua UH-U12P heatsink up a little bit. So really the heatsink isn't hanging off the motherboard at all.
I have packaged it suitably with the box Novatech supplied, with styrofoam surrounds, plenty of "wotsits" etc around it. All the components have been screwed in securely, and the heatsink is being supported by the case fan.
Should I be wary of anything else when parcel force collect it?
I'm just asking, just incase.
