General Hardware Question

Hey all,
Its coming up to a year (in Jan) that i have had my original P8P67 Pro and i am still able to RMA it for a replacement/refund, my question is, what do i replace it with?
Another P8P67 Pro? or should i pay a bit more and upgrade it?
I have braided all my cables to the color of the board so i would like to stick with it if possible but if not... its not the end of the world.

Also, i have 8GB of Vengeance RAM at the minute along with a 2600k and SLi 570's, is it worth my adding another 8GB of ram?

Thanks all.

When you say Sell the RMA Board on return, what do you mean? i assume ill have to send my current board back?

I dont really do anything on my PC, eBay use and a few hours of gaming each week.

Oh, i see what you mean, wont be a problem waiting... i have about 10 PCs at home, make a change to use one of them!!
(i host 2 LANs a year, and all the guys that come from abroad use my spare PC's... Dead money if i am honest)

Hey guys, i have just called E-B (Competitor) to enquire about returning my non-faulty P8P67 Pro under the recall and i was told that i can not return it now as the recall was only for 6 months... please tell me that this is wrong...?

They tell me that there was an announcement on their website that said that anyone who bought the board before Feb 2011 were able to return the board for a Replacement of a Refund within 6 months.

I never saw this and i can clearly remember that i had spoken to someone there who told me that i can do this anytime within 12 months.

Whos at fault here guys?
