"Buy new, we don't want to keep making the old boards"..
 
 
(This is the answer I think ...anyway..that's me)
 

The X58 platform came out in 2008/2009 and was discontinued in 2012 for the X79/Socket 2011 platform. It's now 2015 and mainstream platforms are much faster than X58, time to move on.

X58 is as old as dirt.

Still rocking an EVGA X58 motherboard.  

Still using the e762 and the only thing I am limited by in games are the 2 Titans. Truly, a perfect investment!

There is always the EVGA marketplace, if you have issues. You just need 50 posts to gain access.  Other hardware sites would probably have something used. I do see several boards available here. But ,I bet EVGA will help you out.

i loved my classy x58

Thanks for the input everyone. I figured it was just an issue of time, but I wanted to be certain. When I built my computer, I had a 10-year plan before building a new one, and that I'd start playing around with overclocking at the 5-year mark. The 5-year mark came, and my power supply melted into my motherboard :\ Never buy XION power supplies.

Mine has SATA III and it works... but I screwed up the boot loader for Windows 7 a while back where it became impossible to have the operating system plugged into the SATA III ports, because they had lower boot priority than SATA II ports.
 
I also had to go through driver hell trying to get the right version of the Marvell drivers to stop the SATA III ports from causing blue screens... so yeah it was a headache.
 
Whenever I hear about someone buying a 1 TB hard drive and using it as the OS partition, I kind of cringe. It just seems natural that you'd have an SSD for the OS and HDDs for data (preferably in a RAID 1 array! Mirroring saved my data when one of my drives failed last year). I actually ran a 64 GB SSD as my OS disk for a few years back when SSDs were much more expensive, but now I use that and my OS disk for my most important games, and my HDD for all my low-performance games.
 
Is there an article somewhere on this PSU issue? I'd like to know more about it.
 
If my RMA is successful, I'll go back to SLIx2. Would you suggest that I buy an EVGA Power Boost then? Or would I need two? This is the new power supply I'm using:

Yeah, I didn't mean to sound like you can't run a SSD on SATA II. I mentioned it because my EVGA E758 didn't have SATA III and it would heavily bottleneck the latest SSD's out. Mentioned the SSD's as a suggestion if the OP has not taken that path yet to include it in his platform change. I doubt the OP will get a X58 replacement in his RMA. I suspect he will have to move to whatever board he gets for replacement if the RMA goes through and they don't void it due to physical damage.
 
Also, i'd suggest checking out this thread:

It's an old one, but I remember the issue from back in the day... It caused a lot of ruckus.
 
Another thing... Power supplies have changed greatly since 2010. A 1000w is overkill for most set-ups, even SLI ones. The only reason I have a Seasonic X-1250w is because I was surfing craigslist and I happened to find it for $80 lol
 
 

Managed to collect all four of the classified mobos (E759,E760/761, E762, and the E770) and will soon put them to use in a large case mod project.  X58 is by far my favorite platform to date.
