So, I went to Microcenter today to inquire further about the intel recall, and the P67/H67 returns. They are fully aware of the issue, of course. My buddy there said its what most of their meeting was about that morning.
So, I found one of there managers to try and nail them down about the returns. Of course they are accepting returns now(within 30 days)... BUT if return my board now, it leave me computer-less for an unknown period of time. I went on that if I return the motherboard, I should just return everything I purchased for the computer now, as it could be utterly useless for a couple of months, and again, leave me computer-less. They seemed to take everything in stride, and understood the situation that it leaves many people. They explained that they will be taking returns on a case by case basis, and in my case they would be able to accept a return on this motherboard, when they get the new replacements.
This is where I was trying to steer this ship. I have a p8p67 Deluxe, which has 4x sata III ports on it... I can make due with these ports, but eventually I will need a board which i can use all the sata ports...
Thought this might be useful to a few stranded people out there looking for a solution to being computer-less for a couple of months.... I know some of you have sold your old parts already.
