ASUS A8N SLI DELUXE - PRICE AND AVAILABILITY

[ShoNuff]

Those of you waiting on eWiz confirmation...

I have good news, I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance. HA!













I just spoke with Tony and he tried to reach the guy in the "Shipping Department" but he wasn't answering the phone. Tony did say that his system showed the board did ship yesterday however he could not access the tracking number. He said the tracking number would be uploaded later this evening.

I would suggest one of you guys keep calling until you get a tracking number. Someone needs to get Gwedo, the warehouse guy, off of his arse and tell him to pick up the phone.

What did you think about there packaging? Based on your post I will assume it's all good! Fire that puppy up and tell us what you think.:thumbsup:

Just checked my online status - I've got a tracking number. It's shipping from Cali and I'm in FL so I'm guessing my board should be here sometime late next week.

Okay, I've got a BFG 6800GT (AGP version). Anyone know the best place to pickup a good PCI-E 6800GT?

EDIT: Nevermind... I ordered from Chumbo. They aren't in stock but they're regular ($399.99) price and have 2 day FedEx for free when they do arrive.

eddo26 did you ever get your board?

Thanks for this thread!

Ps. eWiz has them back up @ $236 a pop.

 

[Ubermacher]

O.K. My dogs tried to scare off the FedEx driver, but he made the delivery any way. My son tore open the package like it was Christmas......
It sure is purdy!!!! It got cables, and wire thingies, and everything......except a PCI-E videocard. Now we wait for the video card manufacturers to ramp up. I've got an order promised for January 7, or 8, unless the supplier doesn't make deadline.......

Leading edge technology is a trial and a tribulation.

Just wanted to post a separate and glowing thanks to Eddo for his almost obsessive dedication to this thread.

Hope Santa brings you what you want most.

what revision did eWiz ship you? I was reading another thread where someone got a rev. 1.03 board.

Just curios and thanks in advance for the reply.

There's different revisions of a board that's just released????

 

[Ubermacher]

Sho;

I had to wait until the sugerplums stopped dancing in my son's head to get the MoBo out of his room. Its a revision 1.02 board.

Where was the thread about rev 1.03 board?

( The revision number is printed on the mobo, near the PCI-E slots right where the "A8N-SLI DELUXE".)

update

NCIX has them in stock

Sugerplums...lol...I can relate. I have a four year old that is in "The Christmas Zone" at the moment. I was searching yesterday and came across somebody talking about his experiences about the board. I can't remember where I was reading. I thought it was the ocforums but couldn't find the thread. Should I find it again I'll post the link. I'm going to try a couple of other spots I frequent.

Edit: I found the thread here. See post #80. The poster is actually is calling for rev. 1.03, not actually saying it exist.

 

[andvruss]

Yes for NCIX. Now I have to wait 6-8 days to confirm my Paypal account . Is there anyway to reserve one wthout paying for it while doing this?

 

[andvruss]

Edit: double

I can and will check tomorrow night (sunday night) I am not home again till then (we are making the x-mas rounds) I got the sytem assembled hardware wise but no post test, bios config or windoze install yet maybe monday morning!

The specs will be

Antec aluminum SuperLanboy
400w Powersupply (brand name but can't remember which)
Asus SLI board
1 Albatron 6600GT card
4x 512mb DDR Crucial Balistix
3000+ Winchester 90nm retail chip
XP90 cooler
Samsung 19" .20DP Flat CRT
Leadtek TV tuner card
Microsoft Keyboard and mouse

I have not decided on the win version though, i am leaning tword just XP pro because i already have it though other options are XP64 (the free 6 month trial) or XP Media Center (anyone know of a MS trail on this? i would like to see how itis before i drop the money on it, even just a one month trial would be cool)

Newegg must have a crap load of A8Ns as they haven't gone out of stock for quite some time.
