What a crock.... Sorry your having to deal with this kind of crap. Nothing sux more than getting broken or defective stuff right out of the box.

I swear I could punch koala bears right now!!!

punching the clown may make you feel a little better. Seriously I feel your pain I went through a similar experience with the R2E.

How about a R2E that toasts your i7 965 and i7 940 because the power plug has intermittent connections......Asus doesn't replace the chips.

OCZ sold me crap RAM and tried to get me to just take the loss and go away until I sent them links to my rigs so they knew I wasn't an idiot. They replied with appologies and an expedited RMA because they knew some bad publicity was coming next.

I have no sympathy for retailers or manufacturers with shady business practices or poor quality control. I say shame on motherboard pro and DFI. If they knew they would be getting some bad publicity they would probably be more willing to make things right for Nip.

None of the stuff we buy is cheap, in fact most of it is top of the line and it should be in working order.

Well I just paid to have it shipped to California to the DFI plant so they can see it. Don't know what to think of all this and don't know how long this will take either. I am ready to buy another one at the egg but don't know what the verdict is going to be and definitely don't want to end up with two of these if they don't refund my money. All I can do is lay low for awhile I guess.

I think I would be telling them to eat my shorts, call my bank to get the payment back and ship the board back to the place I bought it.

There's no way you should have to go through this crap.

I was so pissed at the end of the day when I came home I yelled at my dogs and my girl all because of this place. They all forgave me because they knew the shit I had been going thru with this place. Rule of thumb, do most your ordering thru Newegg because they have about the best return policy there is. There are a few others out there that I trust to but my man shit stain is Newegg. Buy.com is another good one that usually has great prices and I have been thru there RMA process before and it is great.

Yeah.... The egg rocks.
