Pretty sad when a major GPU company forgets to validate their domain

[durangod]

Yep i did a ticket for my Gigabyte card and now the site is down. Its down because someone in the company that is in charge of their web site did not validate their domain.

gigabyte.com try it yourself, its laughable to see how some people are so incompetent.

This domain name is suspended. The domain name you have entered has been temporarily suspended because the account of the domain holder (Registrant) has not been validated. If you are the holder of this domain name, please log into your Marcaria.com account to receive instructions on how to activate your domain name. If you have any questions please contact us at support@marcaria.com

If you are not familiar with what that means. Basically the (not so new) rules on domains is that if you make a change to the domain registry data you have to validate that change with the owner or admin of the domain. Its just an email that says basically "hey is this correct" and you click the validate link. They started doing this years ago to help prevent domain fraud. And they give you i think 10 days to validate it.

So that means that someone at gigabyte didnt do their job. Pretty sad!!

The site is fine: http://www.gigabyte.com/index.aspx

However, just going to gigabyte.com as the OP suggested does produce those results.

I was concerned because their esupport is at .com and it was down. But i see now that its working again, so i guess someone noticed and said "oh heck" we better fix that.

Now i can check on my ticket again... thanks all

Look like they update their site, internet dns need time to update. You could change your dns server to google 8888 or 8844
