OEM/REFURBED Motherboard question

[QueBert]

I know neither usually come with anything but the MB itself. My question is kind of a stupid one, but is it possible to get IO shields, err not sure what they're called. The metal peice that goes on your case for all the par/ser, USB & audio and stuff. I'm looking at a MB on Newegg and the refurbed is much cheaper. But without that peice my case will be dust city.

try ebay, but after you receive the board. It may come with it.

that's a nice link, no DFI shields tho maybe I'll test my luck and order the refurbed board and see what I get,

You can always make your own using aluminum flashing. I've done that a few times. Never gotten a DFI refurb. The Asus refurbs usually are just the board in a white box with nothing else. Shuttle refurbs look new with everything included. YMMV.

Contact DFI I am sure they would send you a IO plate for your motherboard.
