And yet people who bought these months ago are still waiting, absurd.

 

Or Corsair can do what Swiftech did with the H20-120/220 compact in regards to LGA1366/1156 support -- give every customer the middle finger and tell them there will be *no* bracket.

 

Hey look, I'd be pretty upset if I had purchased mine a while ago but there are worse alternatives.

No Best Buy in the Dallas/Fort Worth Texas area has the H50, let alone the bracket. They don't even show it available on their website or through their vendors to Best Buy at this time. What is the Best Buy part number from the tag/receipt so I can get a buddy of mine that works for Best Buy to research this? I'm sure he'd really like to know.

Well thats great isnt it, they put the new 1156 bracket in new shipments with H50's?

 

The 1st priority should be shipping out brackets for people who already have the H50 not just the few in here but to the retailers around the world, whats going on?

 

I bet theirs loads of people waiting on these brackets not just people reading on here, alot of people awaiting to upgrade their rigs too who are using the H50 on their current rigs.

 

Sort it out Corsair or lose customers.

EvilClocker is wise. Just got back from my local BestBuy and sure enough, there it is. The new retail package clearly states 1156. I bought it, as I would think the online retailers like NewEgg where I normally get stuff will be selling old stock, as their specs do not show 1156 support.

 

HTH...

I walked into a Best Buy yesterday looking around and asking questions, nothing. I called my buddy and he knew nothing. Today, my router was looking to be replaced so I went back to the same one on Eldorado pkwy and they had one on the shelf where it wasn't yesterday. BUT it wasn't one of the newer ones. It did not have the -1 designation behind the part number or I would have picked it up for sure and figured out how to return my other one I bought from Fry's almost a month later. :D: Oh well.
