Gigabyte to run Extended Warranty on P55 Mobo's?

Yes that is a great move 6 year warranty with uk rma center
gigabyte really know what their customers want this also adds great scope on resale value.
 
non-transferable
but that another benifit of MM over the bay - previous owner MAY be available to help
Yeah same here, I send a copy of the original receipt & if anything goes wrong I'll sort RMA for them, done this with an Abit motherboard before, helps with resale price.
 
it's only for better sales.. yeah, awesome, 6 years warranty, but who really needs that? How many people out there that haven't changed pc in 6 years? Especially about intel.. 478,775,1366,1156 all sockets not interchangeable.. Even if lga 775 was for pentium and for core2, so you can say it's a long liver, but you definitely won't say that about 1156.

So pure marketing :D

Yeah to be honest for me personally as long as a motherboard has 2 year warranty I'm happy, the maximum I would own a board is around 18 months before switching to a better board or chipset.

P55 should last us 2 years.
 
To Extend or not to Extend…

You guys would be surprised by how many motherboards we get that are more than 3 years old!
Crazy, I know! But it happens – a lot.

Honestly, the reason for us offering Extended Warranty, in my opinion is:
Show our commitment to the end-user, we rather have a long term relationship with our users, than just offer a quick short-term solution, like 55% off :p
This is also a FREE extended warranty, so I would rather prefer to have this, than nothing extra.
Besides, our pricing is good and very competitive and it’s being offered to anyone around the UK.
It also shows that we are very confident about our product quality. ;)

You and I may not really benefit from this, but others will definitely benefit.

What would you guys like to see?
Besides 55% off :D
 
GigaMan:

It applies only to products purchased in Mainland UK
I live in N Ireland, does this mean that I do not quality for this offer of Extended Warranty, even though N Ireland is part of the UK.

I have just bought a Gigabyte GA P55 UD5 board.

N. Ireland will be included on our Extended Warranty program, no problem :)
