Posted December 22, 201113 yr So, last night, I was out running some errands, and stopped at an e-tailer that sells games, DVD's, computer hardware and home electronics. The original plan was to pick up my new point-and-shoot crap camera I bought for ~55€, just for fun. Once there I saw that they had a Z68A-GD80 open box in stock, so I figured I'd buy that as well... Happy I did. Below is what greeted me when I got home (also, the first picture with my new camera, turned out okay): I noticed that there was a stock cooler mounted on it when opening the box, so I removed the cooler...

Not sure whether it was a return or a board back from RMA that the store had tested, and frankly, I couldn't care less. Gotta test it later on, don't have a good cooler at the moment though. Maybe I should buy another open box mobo and see if someone's left an H100 on it or something.
