I may be interested. By "New Core" do you mean one CPU was replaced? Both CPUs? The Motherboard?

I checked your past posts. Did the above repair fix your shutdown issues and uneven CPU temps?

What state are you in, and did you swap out the heatsink/fan on the 7800, or leave it stock?

Thanks for the reply, I was getting tired of the "vultures" circling over the thread.

The entire core, all 4 chips and the radiator/fan assembly was replaced under warranty. It comes as a single unit, and has one part number. I would have checked for past posts as well. Since update to 10.4.7 no shut down issues, although I only shut down with impending electrical storms anyways. State of Maryland, and no, I left the vidcard fan STOCK, it really never was that noisey when I finally got the Quad, even with it on the table beside me and rendering 3d full bore.

Let me know as soon as possible if you're serious. To tell you the truth, I've been most satisfied and am not very happy to take this hit (down in price). I'd be just as happy to keep it and remove the sale notice and put her in a future (!) render farm.
