My wife doesn`t like me to have it up or running without her permission also. Mainly if I am excited without her nearby. But when I am up and excited and she arrive by surprise she always put me in the wall. I think your wife is right c303a.
I need to study English again, this is getting very tricky.

the nice new Asus board arriived. I/O package was open so it was an open box and not new. When I started placing components on it to see how everything fit together I noticed one big glaring item. No way was the sli bridge that I have going to work. The 2 GEN3pci-e slots are a lot closer together and this board did not have a sli bridge. After thinking about it I decided to RMA the board to the egg. I really didn't want the trouble of maybe installing everything and then have a bad board since someone else already seems to have had it. I have ordered a more expensive board and have it coming air so I should have it tomorrow. Asus P8Z68-V/GEN3.This will allow pci-e 3.0 later if I ever get to that point.
I have to say that I have never had a better customer experience then with the egg. No questions asked. RMA e-mailed and a prepaid UPS label e-mailed. Great servicce.

I have to agree there customer service is great but im really getting concerned about this open box stuff the motherboard i ordered also seemed to be open box and now after all the issues with moo and the 6950 the board finally craped out im having to rma my board off so my I7 will be going offline soon.. So what board did you go with im really thinking of just ordering a new one and this time not skimp on it.
