1 of 5 DoA Thursday, June 12, 2008
A Customer from Maple Shade, NJ  

Motherboard DoA on arrival. I was waiting on other parts for my new board before I could test it out, so I missed out on the period to return to buy.com. XFX gave me an RMA after a few questions. I'm still waiting on the replacement to be shipped. Most of this is not Buy.com's fault. I know 2 other friends that bought the same setup and had no problems. I guess I just had bad luck. Just disappointed in the overall outcome and question paying this much (350+) on a motherboard.
