$50 OFF ANY Z77 Motherboard with Intel Core i3 3225 (?), Intel Core i5 3570K or Intel Core i7 3770K Processor @ MicroCenter

been going on for a couple months now

Works online for store pick-up. Also reported to work with H77, H68, and other Intel MoBos

No such thing as a 3225k? :dunno:
Microcenter has been running the $50 off mobo promotion for some time now. It's nothing out of the ordinary.

Thanks. I am late to the party as always . I wish I had seen the deal before I ordered my MoBo + i3-3225 from Amazon. I would have saved about $40. Stupid Slickdeals search. Never returns what I need.

Yeah, that's a typo. It's the new i3-3225.

I wish they had a store in Phoenix. Frys needs some competition.

I3-3225 and H77M-ITX for $175; to go into a Lian Li Q11 case.

Any recommendations on a power supply for this with a DVD burner, SSD, and integrated video? I'd guess 300 watts is overkill. I understand a modular ATX PS will fit.

This is Microcenter's regular price for those items. And that's a great thing!

first time I saw it with this cheap of an intel CPU though.. normally only the "high-end" CPU's get the bundle discount..

I agree, the new thing here is the addition of a cheaper CPU. Much lower out the door cost.
Although this is a lower price than the egg, if you didn't get the 50 off on a combo, I would think that the i3-3220 for $100 is a much better deal. $30 more to get the HD4000 seems too high for me.
Anybody have any reviews of the i3-3225?

This will be around US100 in thanksgiving

Co-sign!!

Crossing my fingers, waiting it out for say, an Asus Z77 MB + 3570k for around $200-225... One can hope... My 1st build can wait.

the deal is back.

Besides, 50 OFF was restricted to i7 CPUs or K version of i5, soccer9gm.
Now, with almost every, even the cheapest CPU, the deal is great.

And even more, I have no idea why you rate this deal so low since it is the BEST pricing you can get.
In store only - so go there. Do not be so lazy.
You can't - do not rate the deal low just because MC is not nearby.


Guys, you surprise me.

this gets so high ratings, although the price is almost same. 280 vs 290. And TAX will be added in at least a few states.

While here - you can get extra 50 OFF with motherboard and you put negative rating?
