Visual Mechanical Inspection on RMA Part:
Microprocessor returns that are Out-of Warranty or have any of the following types of severe
visual-mechanical damage may not be returned. These Include:
Severe chips or cracks in the package or die are most often caused by improper heat-sink
installation or removal. This mode of damage is usually the result of applying excessive force
onto the die or substrate, or from the collision of the die with a hard surface. Die cracks can be
observed by tilting the part in the light. All die cracks are considered user-induced damage. All die
chips with length or width greater than the width of a chip-capacitor on the CPU (approx. 1.65mm)
are considered user-induced damage.
2. Burnt Up Units:
Burned –up units are often the result of improper heat-sink installation, not using thermal interface
material, not removing the protective tape from the heatsink, and/or by using a non-
recommended thermal compound. These types of defects create electrical shorts in the part and
render them unable to be tested in a motherboard. Attempting to test electrically shorted parts will
damage the motherboard. Burned-up units are frequently severely discolored; however, some
mild discoloration is normal.
Improper handling often results in multiple package pins being bent. This level of damage is most
often caused by forcing the unit into the socket incorrectly, by dropping the unit, or by forcing the
pins against a hard surface.
