So whom should I contact for the replacement? Delta, where I purchased my mobo? or is there any Asus centers in Pune which will be doing replacements?

Also MSI launched an event called MSI sandy Bravo. Only for the users of INDIA/Indonesia/ Malaysia/Philippines/Singapore/Thailand/Vietnam. From March tp may 2011. Check this:

^^ well, at the most you can wait for a week and within that time, it'll reach. Why can't you try with theitwares and theitdepot? They sure got some information and if not, then have a look at newegg, whether it's available there or not.

I mailed Delta about this, he replied "Asus has not yet launched the new bugfree version of this board, its expected by March end / Apr Mid. Asus will swap once this is available."

 

[msaiashwin]

Re: Everyone check dis out..info regarding fixed sandy bridge rev 3.0(b3)

@Vishw: I spoke to the rashi guy directly..He spoke to the head office in bombay and told me that the boards will be available in the next 10 days..

And for the information ASUS has already launched the bug free boards.. Check the asus indian site. All of them have a rev3.0 b3 sticker..

Did you buy your board from Deltapage online? Probably he might be getting his stocks later..

Take your purchase invoice and board. Give it to them, and they'll provide you with a new one. This is what i heard from my local dealer.
