Looking for an IO shield: Calling all EVGA 680i owners

    My mobo is an: EVGA 680i A1

    Ok to cut a long story short, I bought a mobo off a guy in the US but it didn't have any accessories included. He is sending me the accessories now (wasn't his fault, it was a sealed RMA board and evga messed up) but without an IO shield.

    I really would like to get my hands on an IO shield for this board.

    So what i'm looking for is:

    A) If anyone knows where I can buy one
    B) Can someone give me theres
    C) If someone owns this board could they contact evga and get them to send out a replacement IO shield which I will buy off them for €10 + shipping

    Anyone?

    What about places where I can get an IO mesh? (like the ones you get on the back of DELLs) where I could just cut out the port holes.

    The IO shield usually wouldn't bother me but i've got a habit of reaching around the back of my pc and just blindly moving the connector around until I find a free port for it. I don't want my hand slipping in the gapping holes left by having no IO shield and shorting something out.

    :eek: I was wondering why I hadn't already found this. Looks like the guy only ships to the US, I usually filter my searchs by whether they will ship to ireland.

    I might just send him a message requesting whether he'd ship to Ireland.

    Liamo,
