This review is from: ASUS M5A97 R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 + SB 950 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
Pros:
Wasn't DOA
The bios was current and supported my FX-8320.
Works out the box with Ubuntu 12.04
I'm not sure if this a ASUS feature or feature in all UEFI boards, but I like the idea of being able to update the bios with a usb drive without needing an OS or even a cpu installed.
Cons:
Other reviews getting me worried.
Overall Review:
I did buy the extra warranty because other reviews have made me deathly afraid of ever having to deal with ASUS directly. Hopefully I'll never have to use it.
