I recently had an msi mobo go bad, and had to rma it. 3 weeks later when i got the new board, i discovered the CPU died along with it.

My processor was a phenom 2 x6 1100t black edition.
Since they no longer make this chip, is it likely id get a downgrade? or would they offer me a discount on an upgrade or something similiar?

If anyone has had any experience RMAing an 1100t, or any AMD cpu for that matter, let me know how your experience was :)
 
Call them and find out, honestly, I find it hard to believe that AMD doesn't have a few left for RMA purposes. But, the longer you wait, the more likely it is they try to hand you something else. If they don't have any, I guess you could tell them you want a PileDriver 8 core, that should at least be a small upgrade, the way things are looking so far.
