Guys please tell me if anyone knows about availability of Non Intel Z68 motherboards in Islamabad/Pindi. I contacted Shing and they told me "New Shipment of Asus z68 will arrive on 20 Jan". This waiting is really hard, if anyone knows of their availability, please tell me.

appreciate your help


thanks

yr mene rawalpindi, dubai wale se pocha tha, and ya, they told me its cost around 16.5k
u can still get some discount if u try hard :p or purchase more items

---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

well i cant suggest u to buy that mobo, coz um a low end user, and dont have any experience in expensive stuff, some experienced members should suggest u to buy that mobo or not at 16.5k

Another thing, sabar ka phal meetha zaroor hota hy, but sometimes items which u get early gives u more satisfaction for the present time ! :)

agreed with avenger.wait for asrock. dont invest on Z68 or P67 series. they are way to buggy. you will regret it later.

Too buggy? So ASRock is not Z68? (the ones that are coming in)

The price is good, if its the (G3) version in the end of the model name then it surely would be worth it.

Otherwise either coming ASRock GEN3 mobo's (as everyone's saying)

Or if i were you, I'd personally wait for the Panther Point" chipset (Z77), coming later this year.

Thanks alot guys for your replies. I would wait for asrock mobos as everyone is suggesting it.

Just one more thing i would like to add, until recently i thought Asus were the best boards for SB but yesterday i saw many threads in another forum regarding freezing and unstable bios of Asus P8z68 V Pro. So i guess Asus beibg the bestwas just a myth and nothing else

i guess all these asus series boards have this problem. i have asus p8p67. was having this problem but updating my bios to latest problem resolved it. overall not a bad mobo its pretty good. but you should wait to get the best :)

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
