Blood Rage - Where is it?

[d3m0n1k]

Does anyone have a link to any store ANYWHERE that has the Blood Rage in stock?

[BenchZowner]

Where are you located ?

[Galerius]

I am in TN, USA.

I could go to knoxville, atlanta, nashville....

[d3m0n1k]

I am in West Virginia.
I would like to buy online, but if I have to travel or send cash, money order, etc, I am willing to do almost anything here.
I need this board.

[Paxi]

You cannot get the Board in Europe either ..
But i recently talked to Saaya and the board should be available as soon as the distributors ship them.. I almost can´t wait any longer^^

[d3m0n1k]

I REALLY do not want to go with the Asus Rampage 2 or the DFI board.
I prefer the Blood Rage over anything.
I have the BlackOps now and after using this one, I feel I found my brand.

BUT, with the Core i7 cpu, ddr3, 1200 watt psu, 650 watt front bay vga psu, 4 terabytes, 2 blu ray burners, and two 280's, sitting here now, I really need a board.

UGH!

[BenchZowner]

NewEgg should have some more boards in stock in a wee while.
I'd check Micro Center and TankGuys as well.

In Europe HPM-Computer should have some in stock already ( hopefully they're not sold out yet ).
You should also check Pixmania and Scan.co.uk & overclockers.co.uk if you're in a rush.

[Paxi]

HPM hasen´t got them in stock..
I called them twice because i´m going to buy it from them and they told me that they don´t have an exact date but it will be available in mid-end jan..
Funnily enough the priced raised by 5€ today evening :P
I haven´t orderes so far because i want to see the board in stock before..
Do you think it will be available @ hmp soon?

[d3m0n1k]

Seems no one has this board.
Wonder why?
Is it bad? Does no one want it?

I hate Asus but it seems the Rampage 2 is my only option now since it is in stock or the (GASP!) Msi Eclipse....

I hate this.

[Galerius]

Please, I pulled the trigger on a 2500 dollar system including this mobo. I would have prefered to wait for it all.

Instead I was "Lucky" enough to get it, but have the S/PDIF connector rattling around the northbridge when I opened it.

Better to have loved and lost, or never loved at all? In this case take never at all. I want to puke.

Hopefully it will get in, or I will have to, like many of you, go with an ASUS or eVGA...god forbid it plz.

I just cannot believe this board is so hard to find.
I mean is it not the new flagship x58 board for Foxconn?
er.....only x58 for Foxconn?
Either way, you would think there would be some out there to buy. I mean right now it is like a demo only piece and no one can find it.
I had to fight for my BlackOps too. While I LOVE the boards from Foxconn the whole "make em wait and they will want it more" approach is making me look elsewhere for my boards now.
Yeah I know maybe that makes me impatient or a complete d**khead, but man....all we want is to SPEND OUR MONEY ON YOU GUYS...you would assume....well, I learned my lesson assuming.
LOL
I just want the Blood Rage. I hate Asus (customer service, reliability, price, useless addons to jack the price up, worthless web site, etc), MSI (ugh, I do not have enough time to type the crap I went through there), EVGA (man, not even worth my time to speak on them after my whole four time rma record on one 780i), and Biostar (i think i vomited a little there).
Gigabyte...well, maybe.
DFI..I loved the UT790FX M2R that some ass stole from me! Thanks Dominick! Theif.
But looking at specs and sheer package (power, relaibilty, looks, etc) Foxconn comes out ahead....WHEN and IF you can find them.

[Bojamijams]

What about canada? I can't find it anywhere. Newegg.ca doesn't have it listed for some reason

Keep an eye on newegg. When they come back in stock,they don't last for long.

[TheKarmakazi]

Yeah im dying to get this board too, but I may go with another manufacturer... too long of a wait...

[BenchZowner]

They've been in and out of stock ( sold out in less than 1 hour ) twice already.
You're not the only impatient bloodrage seeker out there.
You gotta be fast and check newegg regularly.

[PoIsOnMaN]

well its not the only X58 foxconn board http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813186161

although this one may not be what your looking for

[d3m0n1k]

I should have made myself more clear.
The only REAL x58 motherboard. LOL

I know the Foxconn Renaissance is probably a good board and all, but since taking my q6600 to 4.0 GHZ on the BlackOps I am hooked on overclocking and the Blood Rage is the king from what I read.

Are there any other boards out there for x58 that come close to overclockability and features?

And I know thishas had to have been asked before, but what is the deal with 3 ram slots instead of 6. Can someone explain exactly why?
Not a bad thing, just wondering.

I have NewEgg set to alert me as soon as it comes in, so hopefully.....

[libertysyclone]

Have you checked any of your local system builders to see if they can order in this board? If any of their distributors have it SKU'd they should be able to drop ship from foxconn, worst case scenario. best case one of those distributors has it in stock and can get one within a few days.

[dengyong]

Don't count on that, it'll be gone again before they notify you.

[Galerius]

Well guys, fate has decided I will not get one of these apparently. Mine showed up broken, no doubt UPS's fault. Foxconn's tech rep replied I should just buy something else, they have no way of getting me a replacement.

The easy answer is wait, but unfortunately I have return and exchange warranties running out on 2k+ worth of components etc and need to get my machine going.

I am leaning towards the P6T6 Revolution, fallback on the eVGA x58 maybe?

What would you guys get if this board didn't exist?

[Nostromo]

Sorry, that sucks

Where did you get yours? and how was it broken?

Both appear to be excellent boards, If you do not need full PCIE-16 X 3 tri_sli i would get the EVGA but the P6T6 is neat, no legacy stuff, but No firewire from what i read..

[Galerius]

I got it from Newegg. The S/PDIF connector was snapped off. When I picked the box up I heard something rattle, I almost puked.

The damage was not from foxconn probably, UPS handles stuff like a gorilla at times.

Foxconn did disappoint me with their lack of support though. I guess their hands are tied and I doubt the are concerned much about this issue. The tech said they do not handle things like this and the best bet was to just get a refund and give the money to another company (chances are Foxconn makes that board too ).

Oh well, next revision maybe another Foxconn will catch my eye. I still have a small ray of hope though... maybe it will come in stock at the egg.

[BenchZowner]

It'll be back in stock @ NewEgg soon.
The demand seems to be massive, so you need to check NewEgg lots of times each day if you really want one.

As for you Galerius, you should send the board back to NewEgg and ask for a replacement as soon as they have one back in stock.
DOA terms are in effect, so call them and "deal" with them

[Galerius]

Yeah, I tried that. According to them I still have to order the motherboard. They cannot just have a standing "Pull" order.

I have to stay in the herd

Let's hope these supply chain issues get resolved....

wow, thats some sweet hardware there

Seems no one has this board.
Wonder why?
Is it bad? Does no one want it?

one thing is many shops still consider foxconn a 50 igp board maker, another thing is some shops are happy with asus msi or whatever brands they worked with in the past and dont feel the need to offer yet another brand of boards.
and another thing is, our distribution system is not working that well for small quantity retail boards... yes, i said small quantity cause they are used to moved around a few thousand boards per week easily...

and another problem is that our pcb vendor is lagging behind and cant produce enough pcbs for us, so theres a way bigger demand than we can supply atm cause we cant get enough pcbs... things will get much better within the next month though.

While I LOVE the boards from Foxconn the whole "make em wait and they will want it more" approach is making me look elsewhere for my boards now.

thanks!
and sorry for the waiting... its not done on purpose, trust me... its no campaign or anything, there were delays from our fab in china, our pcb vendor, then there were the christmas holidays and new years holidays that delayed things even more... im really amazed at how fast things moved in the us btw! despite the holidays things went quite fast over there, while in europe it seems the boards that arrived before christmas still havent arrived at the shops now. there are def some people in the us and at newegg that work hard even during the holidays... this is to them

What about canada? I can't find it anywhere. Newegg.ca doesn't have it listed for some reason

they dont? thats odd... and you cant order from newegg.com and have it shipped to canada? that sucks... i just emailed our newegg contact and hope he can sort something out

Yeah im dying to get this board too, but I may go with another manufacturer... too long of a wait...

NooOOooOo, please wait :P

Don't count on that, it'll be gone again before they notify you.

damn, its sold out that quick all the time?
i heard a similar story from the shop in japan... im sorry we cant supply as many boards as there is demand for atm... really sucks :/

Foxconn's tech rep replied I should just buy something else, they have no way of getting me a replacement

Huh? why did you contact foxconn support and not newegg support anyways since it was a doa? newegg can replace the board much faster than our rma service in my experienced.
but please tell me who you talked to at foxconn support, that kind of reply is really not ok and i need to whoop some 4ss there :P
