So I was trying to water cool my Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 and now I've got little cracks I thought were scratches, and the CPU light is solid red. I know the CPU is good, tried 2. Rams known good, but has been tested with a different set. Also one stick at a time. So im fairly confident its the cracks on the corners of the NB I thought were scratches. 

 

My question for you guys is. Will ASUS RMA for this, is it trash, do you think its worth the time and money to send it in. Or should I look in to getting a replacement.

i dont think they will replace it since you broke it trying to do something like watercooling, which is not associated with asus's product at all. if you got it broken, then they would replace it. or you could do something really sneaky like giving a fake story on how it broke if you really need a replacement.
