As we all are aware that Intel finds Sandy Bridge chipset design flaw.

So if you can find one, they are safe to buy, especially if you are only using 2drives. however, you'll just have to exchange the board in the April timeframe, or may as well just wait until then.

So my question is will indian vendors take this thing back for replacement?

yes, they should. but if its Rashi. highly unlikely. also i think one needs to register online or something. if so, register & get a printed page out so you are not troubled later.

^^ Even rashi will be bound to replace them this time. If order comes from asus which will surely, then they are bound to replace. Atleast rashi in my place told me about this.
