I'm looking at a gigabyte ga-z77-udh5 and their in store price is $179.99 ($139.99 with i5 3750K processor), while open box is $116. I am gathering these items piece by piece, so it would be $179.00 if I just buy it new. With the open box see that they have a 30 day in store return and full manufacturers warranty. Is it wise to just pay more for the new item or is gigabyte good on their return process if the board turns out to be a dud?
Guess I can try to save enough to buy the processor and board in one swoop if buying an open box board is a bad idea.
