All motherboard manufacturers are affected by this news, but we want to minimize our customers exposure to the error detailed by Intel. This is why we want to offer our faithful customers the opportunity to get a refund. Or, if they want to wait for the fix we can get them a brand-new motherboard delivered to them at no charge commented Ray Lin, Vice President of Motherboard and Graphics Card Business Unit of ECS USA.
