MSI K8N Neo now available

[JulesMaximus]

For anyone who was waiting for this board to become available. We'll see when they actually start shipping them now. :roll:

MSI's website still says they will be available soon. I wonder if Zipzoomfly is just taking orders prematurely.

Thanks, put in my order. This Chaintech is really grating on me.

Is it actually in stock? I went through the checkout, up to when you actually have to pay and got no out of stock pages. This motherboard is awesome and will fit nicely in the antec overture if thats the way i decide to go for my HTPC/PVR system

 

[JulesMaximus]

I put in my order. It says processing so I'll let you know as soon as I get a tracking number.

 

[nycxandy]

Cool, keep us updated!

 

[Bar81]

Allegedly out of stock even though website doesn't indicate so. More due tomorrow so I think this won't be shipping till tomorrow.

 

[coolred]

And where does this info come from?

 

[Gruntt]

I check with Zipzoomfly by email. Here is the message they sent.

This motherboard is in fact in stock according to our purchasing department. Feel free to contact us again if you have any further questions.

My order is still "processing" according to their website. I have over $3900 in the account I gave them and I've ordered stuff from them before so I KNOW there is no possibility of other "problems" with my order.

I placed it at 1:00PM this afternoon. I'm hoping it ships tomorrow but even if it does I doubt I'll have it by the weekend even with 2 day shipping.

Please keep updating because I need to order my new pc by next week and I really want that board. I want to order it as soon as possible so let us know please. Thanks.

I've ordered from them a couple times. They have been good about shipping stuff right away and since I'm in So. Cal. (they are in Northern CA) I usually get it within 2 days even if shipped UPS ground.

Sorry if this is slightly OT, but...

MSI's site says it supports 3400's and up. Will my 3000 still work with this board?

Thanks.

I can't imagine it wouldn't support it, if it doesn't guess i'll just have to upgrade, hahahaha

 

[Bar81]

Yes, of course it does.

It says on back order right now. Only negative I read on this board was an above average cpu utilization on hdtach. 22% maybe? Probably doesn't mean much for regular use.

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a software issue with hdtach.

As of 9:57 AM central mine is packed and shipped - so if they are out of stock it's because of me

 

[JulesMaximus]

8:11AM Pacific and mine is showing as packed.

Edit-This item is now showing as backordered again. I'm surprised NewEgg doesn't have them yet.

 

[SeaFoam]

Well the important thing is that we got ours huh? hehe

 

[DemiSheep]

I just checked (12PM Eastern) and mine is packed...

Im so glad I didnt have to wait another week or more to get this motherboard!

 

[FiberoN]

Says it's in stock now as of 12:37pm central. This sounds fishy Let me know if you get it.

It does sound fishy. I wonder if they are just taking the orders anticipating the shipment. MSI's website still says that it is not available yet and NewEgg doesn't have it listed on their website yet either.

Is ZipZoomFly just taking our money on pre-orders? That's pretty shady if they are.

Anyone got a tracking number yet?

 

[SeaFoam]

If it says packed i'm sure it's packed - they are real good about getting stuff out.

 

[JulesMaximus]

Update-I just spoke with a rep from MSI and they said that if they (ZipZoomFly) didn't have them yet they will very soon. She thought that they might have shipped. Basically, she wasn't very informative.
