A while ago I bought an Asus M4A79XTD motherboard secondhand. I seem to have misplaced (or never received) the I/O shield for it.

Does anyone have one spare??

I would really like to get this build underway

If bounty can't find it, you could try ebay.. last time I had that issue I spent $12 or so to get one ex china.

I've never dealt with ebay before so am unsure about this avenue...

eBay is great, I buy all my Volvo parts from UK. Delivered it is half the price than buying local. US can take a week or two for shipping, UK is 5 days. US also does not know much about the world outside their border. CN can take 2-6 weeks to deliver, if that fast.




You can never have enough Volvos!

What Niel said.. Ebay is great, but things ex china often take 3-4 weeks minimum to get here.

Ok.

I'll wait for now... but in the meantime I'll start doing some reading about ebay. I have seen some pretty sweet deals on there for other things too but never gone much further than looking
