Hey, i noticed that the p8p67 pro has (new rev 3.0) on it, does that mean it's the one with the fault fixed? also, if i ordered mine on the 28th where that board wasnt available, would i still get the newer board with the fault fixed? Thanks.

Yes it's the one without the fault.
From other posts I've read (somebody please confirm) you will have received an email from PCSpecialist asking you to choose 1 of 4 options, these included; a free 2 port SATA PCI card, a free 4 port PCI card, to hold onto your order until the new motherboards are available, or to send your PC out anyway with the faulty motherboard with a 5-15% chance that possibly in the future you may have problems with some of the SATA 3 ports

The free Sata cards only applied to orders already taken before the issue became known. PCS (the moderator) posted a message on 8th Feb to say that...

New customers placing orders:

All customers looking to place orders will have noticed the warning message upon proceeding to the order page, and we are ensuring no new systems being dispatched are affected by the chipset issue, because all drives will be connected to the SATA 6GB/s ports. SATA cards are not being offered to new customers and new customers placing orders will of course not be able to return their system for a replacement motherboard unless the motherboard has a different fault or fails. No other aspects of the warranty are affected.

Alright, i was just wondering because since i've ordered my system recently (28th) and obviously i'd rather have the non faulty board so i was just wondering if there was a way i could secure one.
