Re: sandy Mobo dillema
Well my Intel board(DH67Bl) just conked of within a week
,think was a lemon cause even the front usb was not working.Now the sad part Prime guys are telling me should not have got the Intel as their A.S.S is bad,waiting for reply from Prime if something can be done at the vendors end.

Re: sandy Mobo dillema
I disagree. The need for an ATX motherboard has nothing to do with the layout of the µATX motherboard- if one "needs" an ATX then no µATX will do.
But i won't discuss here- maybe another day, some place else.

Re: sandy Mobo dillema
I dont think that an intel mobo RMA process takes two months or something... You can expect a replacement within 15 to 20days max... TBH Asus provides bad A.S.S... And i dont know why your seller praised Asus A.S.S... It would be good if people who have RMAed their Intel mobos in the past would comment on this matter... Specs wise Inel DH67BL is better than P8H67 M LE... It comes with four RAM slots...

Re: sandy Mobo dillema
See 9 to 10 days is ok... When i had RMAed my gigabyte motherboard the whole process took 15 to 20days... At times most seller use this nasty trick to sell a different motherboard to a customer by cribbing about the motherboard he/she wants to buy... I know these selling tricks coz i have worked in a retail company in the past...

Re: sandy Mobo dillema
Asus has improved their after sales and it isn't as bad as how it used to be.
That quote for Asus P8H67-M LE for 7.2k is way overpriced! You can get it for 6k from Prime.
Also don't listen to what those dealers are trying to tell you. They have no idea what their talking about. '' why to choose H67 when u are going with dedicated GPU ? Instead take H61 ! '' WTF does that have anything to do with getting a dedicated GPU? :| Infact both H61 and H67 support onboard GPU.

Re: sandy Mobo dillema
^^ And those illiterate dealers dont even know that H61 motherboards dont have RAID support, Sata 6GBPS support and can only support two DIMMs coz of chipset limitation... They just give highly misleading information to customers... People who dont know much about computers they just buy what these dealers tell them to buy... But people who have good knowledge would either argue with them or would straight off go to a store which has employees with good knowledge about computer peripherals and sense...

GIGABYTE - Motherboard - Socket 1155 - GA-HA65M-UD3H-B3 (rev. 1.0)
it's GA-HA65M-UD3H-B3 based on H 61 .

Re: sandy Mobo dillema
^ The standard H61 chipset doesn't support Sata 6 Gbps.
However vendors can add microcontrollers on the motherboard to bring in such features on the board. It's like how previous generation boards supported Sata 6 Gbps with additional chips onboard. Gigabyte has done that with a few of their H61 boards. (Dunno what's with Gigabyte and their huge crazy list of 1155 motherboards :S)
I'm not sure about the availability about these boards. But I think it's pricing will be close to a few H67 motherboards. IMO it makes more sense getting an H67 motherboard which has native support for these features.
Having native support integrated is always better than adding additional chips since they would be more efficient.
