Oohhh sori to hear it bro, but anyway... welcome to the -lightning fried my mobo club- man..   

thanks bro, like that d i'm bein a 'lil bit lucky then... 

@ ventri,
sorry to hear that bro, try to clean up any burnt mark (if there's any) b4 sendin for rma.... 

hopefully there'll be 4.0GHz prime stable oc an hour later. 

i supposed it should be d nic controller or audio processor rite? if no burn mark chances are high can claim warranty... a gud sign it is... all d best bro... 

can take a snap of it usin macro mode? if d hole is perfectly round it could be d way it is, but if d hole is koyak type then it's obvious that d chip is burnt... 
auto = +2%, mingle with +2%, +4%, -2% & -4% to suite d taste of ya chip. lower voltage oc prefer -%. 

I believe that would be ur NIC..
When ur pc was hit by lightning was it turned on? If yes u need to do a lot of checking..
The probability of other components affected also quite high... like ur ram's & gpu etc..
When my pc was hit luckily it was off so only the mobo affected..

Miahahaha, i was refering to both of u n xixo.. Great result 4ghz

Xtau bile mau down+upgrade to the 550BE ah.. still figuring out my bajet..

1-to-1 for shop only 7 days iirc. most shops cover 1 year (they won't be nice enuf to do 1-to-1, mostly just send rma), d followin 2 years u r on ya own (send to distro yaself). 

like that u better send to distro, save time coz if u send shop, shop will just send to distro. better find out asap whether distro will do a replacement & move on regardless what is d outcome. 

my 2 cents only bro... 
xde free cores x rock bro... 

downgrade jgn x downgrade... 
auto = set all core = +2%, short cut ways w/ lower volt = all cores @ -2% or -4%, very fine tuning = per core X%, u gotta mingle w/ X yaself (most probably w d 4 values mentioned).

better call 'em up 1st, they mite direct u to distro like ban leong or others (depends on which distro carry ya board). 
i lost track ledi bro... i unlock cache only on my x4 810... 

I donno bout ur case but my mobo kong from lightning coming thru the modem..
Not from the powercord coz if from powercord my PSU also kaput already

use wireless usb.. safe

If u really wan to use AM3 proc on TA770A2+ mobo ...AM3 810  is the higher u can choose + u nid to update the bios to support 45nm proc . hv to flash the bios in order to support. bios file  = A78XAC25.BST

try ur luck.... bro. just say u no know everything. say u cant on the pc .dont say got hit by lightting

can post a photo shot  and post here....

they should consider it because that's not a mobo chip..
unless they don't know n picky..

just spot the burnt mark n say no no..

must where skirt..
mobo cannot on right? how to repair..

Same problem with you. Bought from CZONE, was told I might not get it RMAed, but 1 month later, new mobo came, albeit it was an old ASUS AM2 board

haha i just killed my psu this morning tryin to reach 4ghz ended up frying my cap ayam psu ... now change to Vantec ION 2+ 600 Watt Power Supply dunno good or not but the sleeving is nice

i tried this before.. 1.15v for 3.1GHz..
but i got this problem..my graphic got error..
my game crash(dota only    ).. my sidebar crash..
desktop blink2.. the ATI driver crash.. need to restart PC.

now bump 1.18vcore for 3.1GHz..not problem yet..
this is due to OS crash or vcore problem?

what is UMA actually?
i knw its IGP related..

there is
DISABLE
UMA
UMA+SIDEPORT

if i choose disable sure have no display since i just disable my IGP right?

come2..think fast bos   
er...can elaborate more boss?

what cause it... NB kah? nb volt been pump... haish... dont want to plug back my GC.... lazy to plug it and dont plan to plug it..
mebbe i just gave up and use at 270HTT only...

 
Kaya la bro.
