Would it do any good to RMA?

I just got my MSI Neo Platinum and retail A64 3200+ Clawhammer from newegg yesterday. Since they had been out of stock for a while before I ordered, I was really hoping to get the CG Revision instead of C0, but I got the C0. The part number on newegg's website doesn't indicate the revision of the retail A64's, and I won't trade a three year warranty for a one month warranty. Would it do me any good to return the chip and try to find someplace else that has the Clawhammer CG, or should I just keep the C0?

Should have gotten the 512kb model if you want a CG. Besides, the extra cache isn't worth giving up 200mhz default clockspeed.

512 kb L2 won't guarantee CG as there are still 3200+ C0 newcastles floating around... as well as 3000+ C0's...
