I am looking to pick up either an EVGA nForce 750 SLI or nForce 750 SLI FTW from EVGA's B-stock because I have a folding coupon and some folding bucks.
 
I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the quality of their B-Stock products. The important thing is that the motherboard can last a long time. I already have extra accessories lying around.

Its a toss up.
 
Ive had good results with B-stock items, and there is a short warranty.
 
Make sure to use any b-stock items you purchase immediately, that way if there is an issue you'll be under warranty.

I have been running my B-Stock E758 for about 2 months now, and I am OC'd, and fold every night.

The warranty scares me on the b stocks. I am really eyeballing the 460 gtx there but I need to read some more good experiences.

The 750i FTW Im running now is B-Stock. Running Great right now.

 
i bougth one X58 LE, no issues yet :)

I was considering getting the 750i mobo from b-stock but i've heard so many bad things about those boards that I think i'd rather wait until I just build a new rig. It's a shame there arent other socket 775 boards that support SLI. Seems like everything else supports crossfire only.

Are you kidding me that is a rip off $149.99, I just don't get some of these prices they come up with for B Stock. Pay the extra $20 for a full warranty. The warranty would be well worth the extra $20, and you know you are getting a brand new unopened card.
 
That card should be more like $99 if it only comes with a 90 day warranty.

Bstock items sometimes have a 25 - 30% reduction in price from time to time, just wait for them to go on sale before ya get something. My 750i board is originally $50, but evga dropped it to $30, and I used a $3 folding discount code on top of that is how I got mine for $26.99

So are there actually documented technical problems with the nForce 750i SLI FTW board?

Sorry, i'm not trying to scare anyone away from these boards. Its just that I would personally like to wait and upgrade to a board that is ultra reliable or at least has a 2-3 year warranty than buy a board with a 90 day warranty and face a potential problem, i'm paranoid like that.
 
There arent any regularly documented issues with these boards, I just see a lot of issues with booting (various LED codes) and problems with the CPU socket that I believe to be more of an issue with BIOS than the actual board itself. Just google search and you'll see what I mean.

I ran a 750i FTW with an E8500 OC'd to 4.3ghz 24/7 with SLI GTX260's and nightly folding for nearly 2 years.  Never a single issue.  I have also been on these boards for over 4 years now, and I can tell you there is no reason to be concerned about getting that board.  When you consider that EVGA sold that board across all of North America, parts of South America and Europe, they probably sold hundreds of thousands if not millions, and even if 100 people complain about a problem, that is only a fraction of a percent.  
 
No reason to be paranoid.

I've purchased 2 items so far from B-stock:

• 630i/7150 - Purchased 1 year ago still running fine.  Didn't come with I/O shield but EVGA took care of that.
• 750i/SLI - Purchased within a month and working fine, no trouble @ all.  I/O sheild included. This deal was too good to pass for $24 US shipping included.

Like others have said if you do purchase B-stock make you fire it up right away.  In most cases it will fail within the limited warrenty period.
Cheers & good luck! 
 
 

I was also thinking of buying B-Stock so thanks from me guys :D

mind you this card folds 24/7 so its not had an easy life by any means.
