Ah another one. One of my IRC friends had trouble with the motherboard he got from ebuyer. Basically it ran his cpu and memory so fast they melted. (Yes, he used the default autodetect paranoid bios settings) :/ We decided that either the mobo was either plain broken, flashed with a broken/incorrect bios or possibly had some weird virus in the cmos. I'm not sure what the outcome was but I think he was talking to his lawyer about it. Anyway, stay away from ebay/ebuyer! The only things I buy over the net is shrink wrapped stuff. Eg CDs, DVDs, Games. Even then I buy from reputable suppliers with a credit card (so I'm financially covered). There's plenty of good advice on the net for this subject. Just use Google.
