Where Are All The 1155 Motherboards?

[Jus136]

In desperate need of a 1155 motherboard, but the ones on Newegg are all micro ATXs, what the heck? And they are made from Biostar...

Guys, I just received an email from Tigerdirect on my Deluxe board. its states that the item is in backorder and I will receive it when they get it in their warehouse, they do not mention a date. It also give me an option to cancel. I dont know if I should cancel. They have handled this whole procedure in a back handed way since they never stated backorder on their sales page, no one knew about it until they made the purchase. If Newegg had it I wouldn't hesitate to cancel.

What do you guys think, should i wait?

I got my Asus P8P67 Pro Rev B3 replacement board on Wednesday from Asus. I live nearby so the shipping was fast. They threw in a nice set of headphones to the package too. Asus may be taking care of the previous purchasers before they let them loose on the retailers.

The P8P67 Pro I ordered from Amazon super early this morning shipped today and will arrive early next week. Keep checking around - they're out there.

There are some Asus 1155 ver.3 (b3) boards in stock at TechNPS http://www.technps.com/computer-hardware/motherboards/. I had never heard of these guys before so I did some digging around. I found out they are a sister company of Digital Storm Custom PCs http://www.digitalstormonline.com/ , which sells high end gaming PCs, and they are located in the same building in Fresno, CA. TechNPS makes some of the RAM for these machines from what they told me. And these seems to be true based on some forum searches I did here on Tom's. I looked on the Digital Storm website and a lot of the machines available there have the B3 Asus boards, so I am assuming this is how TechNPS has access to these board already.

I ordered a P8P67 after speaking with someone on the phone(twice, they answered right away both times) at TechNPS, at the time they said they had 14 of these boards in stock ready to go. After checking again just a minute ago they are out of stock on these, BUT they still have some Deluxe boards with the revised stepping. I would have posted sooner but I was waiting for my Tom's new member confirmation email!

Anyway, before I ordered I asked them when the motherboard would ship if I ordered today and they said it would go out later this afternoon. My tracking number was already showing my item had entered the system a few hours ago so that is reassuring. So anyway just wanted to share my info with anyone else looking for a Sandy Bridge board.

I can't wait to get my machine built. It's been a long time coming and I am sick of looking at all the un-opened Newegg boxes in my room!

Thanks Pval!!! I ordered my P8P67-M Pro from Technps over the weekend, called them this afternoon, they checked, found they had it, and it's already shipped ups, supposed to get it on Wednesday!!!

EXACTLY what just happened to me too.... I just called Tiger, and the lady I spoke with says she's going to talk to her supervisor about it because they are getting a lot of complaints about it.

Heck, at least newegg SHOWS their B.O. on something!

I knew it was too good to be true!


I think I will cancel my order and cough up elsewhere for a sabertooth.

I'm still waiting around them to come off backorder on Newegg and Tigerdirect. Ordered myself a P8P67 Deluxe from Tiger the other day disappointed to find out from an e-mail its on back order. Anyone know when full retail is going to come back? I know it was previously stated in April but is that still true?

I hate to say it, but I think you're in the same boat as many of the rest of us. Neither Tiger or Newegg can tell us when they will have more. I've asked both of them and all they tell me is that you just have to keep checking online. Right now its basically a free for all with these P67 mobos, and the lucky ones that are checking the sites non stop seem to be finding them.

I had an MSI board in my "shopping cart" at newegg the other day and by the time I'd finished completing all the parts I needed for my build the damn thing was gone!

Best of luck to you, if you have patience and can wait I'd guess you will have your board at a fair price by the middle of next month.

Just to let you guys know, Tech NPS came through for me, I got my Asus P8P67-M Pro today. Thanks again to Pval, for giving us the info and link.

Hello new friends. I too am "patiently" waiting for the supply channel to ease up on an ASUS motherboard. I plan to order from either Newegg or Amazon where I'm a Prime member with free 2 day shipping.

I do have a question without trying to hi-jack this thread. Have any of you compromised with another board in the ASUS line and not regretted it?

I may be unnecessarily hypnotized by all one gets with the Deluxe, yet not be at a level necessitating it. I have no idea what I will use front USB 3.0 for NOW for instance and going to the back of a case isn't an inconvenience for me usually.

I'm pretty certain I'm going to splurge on the P8P67 Deluxe with all its bells and whistles (comes with USB 3.0 bracket, LED trouble codes, onboard switches, resets galore). I will be new to overclocking, so all the help I can get may be worth it if something goes wrong.

1 week ago my primary work from home machine failed me at the motherboard level, an AMD 7750 Black Edition in a Shuttle case/power/MOBO. It was my first partial build you could say. I had to take it in for diagnostics to confirm my suspician that it was at the MOBO level. $20.00 bench test here in FL if you can believe that.

I've spent the better part of my time researching the crud out of CPU, case, PSU, RAM and CPU cooler. Really the only things I can salvate are my Seagate 1.5 TB drive and DVD burner. I'm going to purchase the Intel 120GB SSD drive to really speed up typical tasks and bootup time.

The results of all my research:

*CPU: having a hard time with this one, may just go i5 2500K to save some money. I can spare some extra seconds on what few programs I have that might take advantage of hyperthreading?
*Case: Cooler Master SGC-2000-KKN1-GP Storm Scout ATX/MATX/ITX Mid Tower Case (Black)
*CPU Cooler: Cooler Master V8 cooler (Looks cool, but might not fit?)
*RAM: Corsair TR3X6G1600C8D Dominator 6 GB 3 x 2 GB PC3-12800 1600MHz 240-Pin DDR3 Core i7 Memory Kit
*PSU: Corsair CMPSU-750HX 750-Watt HX Professional Series 80 Plus Certified Power Supply compatible with Core i7 and Core i5

I'm open to suggestions on the above list, by the way (again without trying to hi-jack the thread).

Lastly, I may just order from Tech NPS today. I'm getting pretty impatient to be back on my own system (using the wife's right now!)

If you get a Sandy Bridge CPU, that Corsair triple-channel kit is the wrong memory to get. With an odd number of RAM sticks, H67/P67 boards revert to single-channel operation.

A 4GB or 8GB dual-channel DDR3-1600 CL9 kit will suffice, and give the best bang for your buck.

 

[Bradygames]

I would just go with the 8GB RAM since it uses Dual channel as Leaps-from-Shadows states. I would get a 1 pack of 2x 4GB ram and just use that. That's what i decided to do with my I7 2600K cpu and ASUS MOBO.
