In my over-exuberance to build a cheap fast machine for folding, I bought a refurbished A7N8X Deluxe from newegg. I didnt' realize I wouldn't get the backplate or screw package! Any ideas where I can get these (primarily the backplate)?

I believe if you get in contact with ASUS they will send you a back plate, as far as a screw set, I have never got screws with a MB, they come with your case.Quote:

Thanks. I'll contact ASUS.
I swear I got screws with my P4P800, but you're probably right and the baggy came with the Sonata case.
screws com with cases. as for the I/o plate [email protected] is where i requested mine from and got it:D
I ordered the same part and was a bit surprised that it was shipped with literally nothing but the board. Other refurbished parts I've ordered at least came with some of the original retail accessories. I was expecting the backplate if nothing else. No such luck, though.
I emailed ASUS support, though I don't even remember what the address was. If I don't hear back by mid-week I'll try the RMA address. Thanks for posting it, meat322.
mine was like that when i got it too! I called asus and they gave me their rma adressQuote:

RMA????
Does that mean you need to send the whole board back just for the cover plate?
Does that board have a special arrangement? I noticed that some boards will fit stock backplates.. Some even have extra breakaway features...
It's still a good deal for $69, though. ;)Quote:

Colossus, the port configuration on the A7N8X is a little unusual. I know none of my backplates would fit. Although I suppose I could make one as a last resort.
the board does have a special arrangement, and no you dont have to send the whole board back. I just sent them an email stating where i bought it and what it came with (nothing) and stated all i needed was the i/o plate and the sent it with no questions took about 2 weeks to get it:DQuote:
