If it's broken, you can get good service from newegg. How would you know it was broken without using it?

That's what I figure, but their policy vaguely states if it was opened/used it's not subject to a return.

No, this actually happens alot.
Send in an RMA request stating the board was DOA and that you couldn't get it to post.
I'm guessing it was either an Asus board or MSI..
Regardless you'll be fine.

Is MSI notoriously horrible? I noticed it hated installing Windows 7.

I'm open to other mobos, sending this one back and just keeping the replacement as a spare.

Gigabyte has always done right by me. I bought an ASRock gayman board once for a build and it came missing pins the CPU socket, took a lot of fighting to get that sorted with New Egg.

I made a Gigabyte overclock for about 5 years straight before it burned out. I'm both sad and relieved to hear it's still a good option.
