They can't, unless your processor is char grilled black.

hmmm...this brings across somewhat of a related issue. They've started putting a small memory chip on cars, which records some information in case of an airbag deploy. It will record data such as, if the seat bag was worn, the speed, impact force, etc... I'm guessing that car manufacturers are doing so, in order to have some sort of a defense against a frivolous law suit.

I wonder if computer/processor/gpu manufacturers have ever thought of implementing such devices. They could easily record processor/gpu clock to see what the clock speeds were, when a processor, or video card "died".

That would be awesome! I wonder how far we could overclock the memory chip?

I think they can tell more so from things like filled in bridges of the older amd chips....I mean you couldn't tell you fried an amd64 chip with an IHS....Myabe the burn marks will appear at the bottom of the chip by the pins, but I have never seen it....

um...ok.... So why doesn't everyone just max out their chips and OC? No need to fret as the warranty will cover all, right?

NO they should just get rid of warranties all together since they are a communist sheme forced upon me if I want a processor and they add cost to everything you buy with a warranty. Why should I have to pay for other people's CPU failures? Why should I have to pay for this "small memory chip" you're talking about? These warranties and small memory chips are amortized over all the CPU's they sell and I'm paying each time I buy a processor for which I'll never use.

Because then the cost of hardware would rise because the companies would have to raise the costs to cover all the RMA's and I'm sure you wouldn't like that

true.
