MSI Big Bang Trinergy Pre-Order questions?

[dham]

On this page it says

http://event.msi.com/mb/bigbang/preorder/

"All those who pre-order the MSI Big Bang-Trinergy motherboard between Nov 30 and Dec 15 are qualified to receive exclusive gaming bundle. Besides, MSI will protect your new purchase with 8-year Exclusive Warranty! "

Then when I go here

Which is the USA pre order place it says

Dec 7 and Dec 21st

So which is it?

Also when it says Register for 8 year warranty it says serial number.  How do I know my serial number if I have not received the product yet?  Also when is this thing being released?  I just want to make sure if I pre order I get the 8 year warranty.  I already have the gd80 but I really want this board for the warranty and the extra features.  Thanks guys.

It seems to me you pre order and then you register it with the serial number after you receive the product to get the 8 year warranty.

Products have to be registered within 30 days from original date of pre-order purchase to receive our limited 8 years warranty. (Products failed to register within 30 days will still receive standard 3 years warranty).

A little extra research by you would have come up with this same little tidbit of information.

thanks man.  I saw the 30 day thing but it didn't make sense really.  How would they know if you pre order it anyway?  The trinergy is going to be out by Jan 1st right?  So you could have ordered in January and still registered within the 30 day period.  Oh well.

"How would they know if you pre order it anyway?"

Probably because you register it with MSI and need the vendors name and your valid invoice number when you do so.

Yea.  Makes sense.  Thanks!
