Should I RMA my P8P67 pro?

I bought it a few weeks ago, thinking the B3's wouldn't be available until mid-April. It has 4 SATA 6gb/s ports, which should be plenty for my set-up and anything I might add later. Ive built my rig now, and I can't really be bothered to take it apart, RMA it and be with out a pc for a couple of weeks, just for some ports I'm not going to use. Is there anything else apart from the fixed SATA 3gb/s ports that are fixed on the B3 revisions?
Thanks, Richard.

Oh btw, havn't actually switched the computer on yet, my noctua D14 arrived arrived today so i'll get it up and running tonight

Hope it works though, the bubble wrap down the end of the motherboard had popped on arrival. Couriers fault not OCUK though I think. Fingers crossed.

it is only the sata issue that has been fixed, but its all up to you. Depending on brand you can purchase one to be shipped to you and then when they receive your board they refund you the cost, so you are without a pc for minimum time etc. But if you cba to rebuild it then dont worry about it?

No point really its the same board. If your not using the ports its not a problem.

To be honest, Ive got a 1tb hdd and a dvd writer at the moment and at most I'll add another 1tb hdd and a ssd. Should be fine, i'll save asus/ocuk the money
