In the last several weeks I have sold several comps and ordered motherboard combo's to save these people money. The last two Chaintech boards I ordered had stickers on them covering the DDR memory slots and the CPU socket. These stickers do not remove easy and it took me over an hour to get the memory slot clean before it would detect the memory. How stupid can Chaintech be! this happened twice to me I wonder how many other people had the same issues. Why would they want to put paper stickers over these items anywho. I think they deserve the dumbass award!!
They are probably trying to copy Gigabyte, they put big "Dual Bios" stickers across the PCI slots on soem boards. I had one of these boards and the stickers come right off without leaving one particle of residue behind. Chaintech probably thought it would be "cool", but were a little too dim to make sure the glue on the sticker was the right kind so it didn't destroy everything it got on. My guess.
Abit some of the higher quality abit boards have the stickers as well.. both my Max2 boards had these... and they put them there to make sure no forgien particles can get into the pin slots and whatnot.... a good idea... pulling them off was as easy and peeling those initial protection plastic tabs off a fresh bandaid... and really clean....
The stickers on the chaintech need to be plastic or something that remove easly. I had to take a knife and clean all the metal connections on the DDR slot. Which is not good I got lucky and took my time what if I would have bent or broke one of the connectors!
would have bite.... however... one of my abit max2 mobo's DDR slot nib things that flip down and up to latch the stick... broke.... anyone know were'd i get a replacement that would fit... (other then RMAing it or something.....) it's not important as 4 slots.... and having to use the next one..doesn't hurt...
