Dude, you wont belive me, but I was the one who educated SMC about the B3 board, over phone. I placed my order with SMC on 28th Feb 2011. And just like ebay, SMC was telling they can get the board in 10 days. After I repeatedly bugged them to send me the B2 stepping version as I cannot wait for a month, SMC atlast told me that they did not have any idea when they will be able to get the B3 stepping board.
I was then told that the B3 stepping boards will be available only in the first week of April. Talk about messing up electronics. Truthfully, it is Intel whom you should kick in their groin.
Another member here had called up SMC itself and was told that B3 stepping will be available only in the SECOND week of April, which makes it another disturbing news. So I am not sure if I will be able to get the B3 stepping board in April. I am already thinking if I can ask SMC to cancel my order of that Asus P8P67 DELUXE so that I can buy the Z68 chipset that will be released in May
I do know it sounds crazy, but it is better to go in for latest tachnology after a month's wait rather than P67.
