Well, it's sold out now, and I didn't need one, and it was in american dollars, but that is an amazing price! :D

Wow, I just saw that randomly looking through pcpartpicker!!  (If only the MSI board for $10 was still available from Best Buy, too.)

 

It's 10:34pm in my time zone (PDT) as I'm typing this on 5/4/2016 - I guess I'd have until 11:59pm?

 

I already have an i3-6100 in my laptop (which has an LGA1151 socket).  I wasn't planning to upgrade it until Cannonlake or Ice Lake comes out (whichever is the first to not be compatible with Z170 / LGA1151, then I'd get Kaby/Cannon i7), but...

 

Also my dad needs a new computer (still rocking a Core 2 Duo T7250), but we have no idea what he'll get.  I'm afraid to jump on that CPU for fear he'll go for a different platform entirely.

 

AAAHHH.... if only the MSI B150 Gaming M3 was still available from Best Buy... ;)

 

And looks like I'm not getting this one either.  Oh well...

 

It was too soon to replace my desktop's 4790K-based system anyway. :)  I wasn't planning to upgrade until probably 2020-2023, possibly even 2025 if I can hold out that long.  (I'm already frequently using 20GB of RAM, and when I add a couple VMs, easily 30 GB, so I may not last as long as I'd like.  Maybe a 64GB or 128GB PCI-Express SSD in a few years might help, using it as swap?)

He doesn't I guess and he needed parents card to use. In that case he can't use it without their permission. (Remember the stupid 16yo fuck who spent thousands on stupid FIFA ? :D )

They're sold out of the surprise sale. They only reserve a certain amount of units for any given sale, they don't exhaust their supply.

What? NCIX US is absolutely fine, they just take a while to ship.

Can't speak for the American one, but I've only ever heard great things about the Canadian one, and from personal experience and what others say, I can say they ship very quickly.  For example, they once quoted me 2 days, but it arrived in one :D
