No it's not, LGA1700 socket pins seems damaged...
If you plug in your CPU onto this damaged board, likely it'll get shorted...
Definitely not normal. That picture should be all the proof that Gigabyte needs to RMA that board.
return
Either I am blind or just damn sleepy, I am not able to see the damage need mooaaar images.
If that board has a QC sticker on it, then that's pretty bad.
GIGABYTE H610M H V3 DDR4
I was always curious how do they test them. Now I know.
This can happen but should have been caught by automated optical inspection, if there is one. It will also likely work but missing capacitor on one of the rails (or being coupled to another rail in this case) may lead to random instability during load. Experienced technician can fix that in a minute with hot air station. If that's all what's wrong with the board. I don't see any bent pins there.
You should definitely return this motherboard. Most likely it just won't start, and if it does, it won't work as intended.
I hope you didn't break it
shouldn't they be bendable?
hello sir
no (nem in english)
ok sir
You should have bought a Supermicro :D
It looks like it came out of the oven like that, someone must have bumped on the conveyor belt. By any chance, was this supposed to be your lucky day?
They will replace it for free. It's just that it's out of stock and I have to wait 3 days.
Does it supports ECC? Or ecchi?
What?
No one cares about ecc, that's why I paid 75€ for 30 GB ECC from one of the only three or four resellers in the EU.
And what happened to your costly ecchi ram sticks? I am thinking of getting a b550m for ecchi stuff, DB manipulation and what not.
All was good with my costly ecc ram sticks, but they costed 2.3 times over the regular ecc RDIMMs. These consumer motherboards only want ecc UDIMM sticks. If interested, I'm selling my old computer, check my last thread.
Can't import will end up paying way more than the new one.
Asus and Asrock have better support for ECC than Gigabyte
I was hoping you could suggest the cheapest am4 one with ECC and m.2 gen4.
You have to be careful about cpu compatibility too, because the AM4 socket doesn't accept all AM4 processors. Which is why I badly wanted to buy pre-assembled. But then ended up spending 2 hours of desperation checking for parts compatibility. (no one sells pre-assembled with ECC UDIMM)
apparently i have a spare 3500x, and i guess it will be fine or i can get myself a 4000 series pro CPU as well.
mmm... when I checked the specification of ~30 motherboards, the CPU compatibility was often split between Ryzen generations 1-to-3 and generations 4-to-5.
I am going for 500 series boards, so it shouldn't be a problem with compatibility apart from PCIe lanes.
What? Clarify please, that doesn't make sense.
Edit: you meant "chipset", not socket.
he meant not all AM4 processors support ECC with different chipsets. Like 3500x supports ecc on b550 consumer boards(lot of), while it doesn't on b450 or b350. I guess sunny can clarify what he meant.
No, he wasn't referring to ECC there. He clarified it was the CPU generation. You can Google AM4 CPU compatibility to get a graphic showing which chipsets have backwards compatibility or not.
