well anyways i was at a lan last saturday and this dude was selling a Corsair H50 for 20 dollars so i took him up on the offer but thats not the story anyways he ask is there anything else u want to buy off of him, i was thinking to myself i dont think i need anything more lol. but he said he had a mobo he would sell me for 5 dollars and it was a Gigabyte X58A-UD3R v2 the only was wrong with it was the pins (6 pins to be exact) on the socket was bent to, cuz he was trying to clean the socket bracket cuz it had past all over and he didnt know if it would work, or could be fixed, i fix the 6 pins and everthing is running awesome so i got a 200 dollar mobo for 5 dollars cuz he was lazy and didnt want to straighten the pins out :D :D:eek:;):rockout:
