Okay so heres were i'm at with correspondence. It looks like he does not want to acknowledge the problem with the NF63TR boards. I'll keep emailing him until he slips up that is just really pissing me off that he says you can RMA your board for another NF63TR board but you can't upgrade and pay the difference when everybody's website has none of this info.
And just to confirm in there knowledge base it does show the NF63TR with a asteriks that it works with 1066FSB Quad cores.
Heres were i'm at so far.
Bottom line you spec sheet is your spec sheet. Thats all fine and dandy for people that look at your site but what about the people like me that go on newegg and see this. Taken direct from neweggs link for the NF63 -
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188019&Tpk=EVGA+122-CK-NF63-TR
Heres the spec's on it as listed by newegg.
Model
Brand EVGA
Model 122-CK-NF63-TR
Supported CPU
CPU Socket Type LGA 775
CPU Type Quad-core / Core 2 Extreme / Core 2 Duo / Pentium
FSB 1333/1066MHz
So your telling me if I bought a quad core made to run with a 1333FSB it would work? Because I don't believe you seeming how nobody can even pass a 1300FSB with this board. Please confirm that for me and everybody else on the forums that i'm a member of. To me it looks like false advertising because from what i've heard it won't even run a 1333FSB Quad which provided by the spec's page on neweggs website theres no mention of it not. Taking a look at the knowledge base there's a little asteriks next to this board that states works with 1066FSB quad cores. Why is that asterik there if in fact it supports 1333FSB quad cores???? Maybe because it doesn't and thats false advertising.
I did in fact love this board for my core2duo as I said in my first message. I paid $170 for my board if I new I couldn't buy a 1333FSB Quad or overclock them I would have spent the extra $50 on a NF68 board. Maybe you should have these sites update that info because not everybody goes direct to your website to make sure the spec's are accurate. I shouldn't have to search the web for hours to make sure in fact what i'm buying supports what it says it does.
I will pay the difference. I'm not asking you to just send me a NF68. Your website talks of how Evga's customer service is second to none. I'm not seeing that. I'm sure there quite a few upset people with NF 63 TR boards upset over this problem with the board. I think you should offer the option of a upgrade because you know there is a defect.
Tell me a Quad core designed with a 1333FSB will work 100% no possibility that it won't run. I don't believe you can say that with 100% confidence.
