    ....is there any way for the OEM to discover this?

    What if the vBIOS was overvolted when it bricked? :eek:

    Hypothetically speaking of course....

    Warranty fraud.
    Lol probably not, they'll just go about fixing it. If they tested everything for every service order that comes in it would be tedious.

    Hypothetical or not, this thread is closed. We don't discuss fraud here.
