It took me an hour to complete all the quizzes and I thought I'd get verified in a couple of hours as some on overclock.net said. I was wrong and the deal ended up selling out in a few hours. So sad.

Prices were 140 and 199 US respectively.

Now to wait for Boxing Day to find a 560TI, or 6950 for 200 or less. Ha.

Are you sure it's sold out? I thought it was just the reduced pricing they were limiting.

Anyone receive shipment confirmation yet? Just sold my 2500k and won't have a computer to use until my 2700k gets here =/

I know there's a way to check in the US if they have shipped it.

ForbiddenX 12-06-2011 11:35 AM

I got my shipping confirmation today. I shipped it to pt roberts though.

I got verified even though I didn't work in the computer department and I gave in my 2 weeks notice 2 weeks before I attempted to verify. lol

Just got shipping confirmation. :)

JoeyStorm 12-07-2011 10:44 AM

I'm not sure if there was a fix yet or not but don't install the gigabyte overclocking software. Caused alot of BSOD for me during gaming. I forgot exactly, but I spent ALOT of time reading forums to figure it out. Once I removed the software no issues. I'm not sure if it's fixed yet or not. Just a warning to people interested in this board.

Other than that it's awesome and looks PIMP

I came across instability when 'dynamic turbo setting' was enabled, but it went away when that was disabled.
