Title: [Found] socket 1150 CPU
Post by: suicidal_orange on Wed, 07 March 2018, 15:57:01

As in the title, I am in need of a socket 1150 CPU so I can attempt to trick my dodgy CPU into displaying something through it's iGPU long enough to install some drivers and/or run the Intel CPU diagnostic test to confirm it's damaged.

If anyone in the UK has a nice i5, i7 or Xeon (with graphics) sitting idle I'd love to borrow it for a couple of days, I'll cover special delivery both ways and send it back in the same box it comes in.

Or if you have a compatible pentium/celeron/i3 you value less than the £16 it's going to cost to post it twice I'll just buy it, unless you really want it back...

Bit of a longshot but if you don't ask you don't get!

Bump - new BIOS didn't help, CPU seems to be my only hope.

I'm halfway across the world but I have a mint g3258 that i didn't manage to put to use sitting in the box. I can send it to you for the cost of shipping, but it's gonna take time to reach ya.

One very good offer (thanks to the happy, religious, mechancal fish?!) but won't ship for a week so still interested if there's anything closer to home.
