With all the stuff I've done with WC, that has to be the biggest nuckle headed blunder I've ever seen. Right up there with plated AL tops.

EDDIE!!!!!!!!!! When can I expect the correct mounting plate (and don't even tell me I'll have to pay for it) so I can turn this 70.00 USD paperweight I'm looking at into something I can use? YOU HAVE PM!

Some insight on this matter. At the time when Supreme was introduced, there was not a single X38 board in our contry Slovenia. And I don't talk about that none of our friedns bought it, none of the distributors, resellers, shop had it, or even seen it and I'll bet you that if I called to every shop, for 95% of them this would be the first time to hear about X38.

Same thing about Blitz series. Two months ago I called the largest distributor for Asus and he asked me if I am sure that Blitz Extreme is Asus product and then what is it's official name.

At this moment, I know of only one X38 board beeing sold until now, I am almost 100% sure that there is no Blitz board in our country, that none of distributors (including resellers) at this moment has any nforce 680 board on stock and I would be shocked if more than 5 nf680 boards like Striker Extreme or Abit IN9 were sold. Buying a DFI board is impossible.

We mostly have Abit IP35 and Asus P5K boards, and block fits on all of them. I also had Abit IN9 and there was no problem.
