Gigabyte and CyberpowerPC Partnering to Offer Intel OC Warranty for Free

As mentioned in a previous post, Intel has started to offer OC warranty for a $20-$35 fee.  Gigabyte and CyberpowerPC take it one step further and is offering to pay that fee with purchase of select systems.

The Performance Tuning Protection Plan being offered by Intel is a chance for users to experiment with the overclocking features of your processor without the worries of what will happen if you push the processor too far. GIGABYTE and CyberpowerPC are teamed up to bundle Intel’s Plan free of charge, and allows you a single processor replacement through CyberpowerPC’s customer support if the CPU fails while running outside of Intel specifications.

Saving some money to put into additional upgrades or even faster shipping sounds like a good deal to me, especially if you were planning on buying a CyberpowerPC to start with.  Just remember OCer, just because the CPU has a protection plan doesn't mean it covers the other parts.
