If the replacement boards are out, they are not on Newegg- No Asus or Gigabyte 1155 boards listed. From what I have read, they have been shipped but apparently not received tet.

Yes, those Biostar are the new B3 boards. Along with the 1 MSI board... only those 3 on newegg at the time of this postWin7User512Hmm...never said Gigabyte or Asus. Nevertheless, they are 1155 boards. As I said.
The Biostar (never heard of them) says "100% Solid Capacitor". So...I think it's the replacement board...

From everything I have found and read Gigabyte has shipped their MB's on Friday(Feb) the 25th & Asus has shipped theirs out on the Tues.(March) the 1st
Both of which need to arrive here and clear customs and then make it to the dealers .... I'm guessing late this week before we start seeing them in stores and on Newegg (just a guess though!).
A lot earlier than April...which is Great for all of us!!
I bought my Gigabyte board in person at MicroCenter and was told they were targeting 3/3 as the available date, but that it was just their best guess. Either way, there's no reason to NEED the board right away. In fact, MicroCenter might be giving out $25 gift certs for people who do wait until after the rush, so I'll probably just do that.
I'll have to make sure I check them tomorrow then...thanks for the info!
I do have to disagree with you on the " Either way, there's no reason to NEED the board right away." I do NEED a board right away IMO... See here. New Build On Hold..
Did you hear this while you were at MicroCenters? Or is it posted somewhere? Might be worth it if I qualify!MicroCenter might be giving out $25 gift certs for people who do wait until after the rush, so I'll probably just do that.
I'm talking about all the people who NEED their replacement board...not ones waiting to buy new.
I was already e-mailed a survey because I'm on the list of people who bought affected boards. They sent out a survey to find out who needs their board right away and who's willing to wait later on, if a $25 GC was involved.
