Overall Review: Board seems defective. 1) From time to time the startup takes too long. 2) Sometimes fails to boot at all during cold boot. The system will hang there with no power supplied to USB devices like keyboard. Sometimes it boots well after 2nd try. ASUS quality control is really bad for this board.

Samsung will not exchange monitor barely over 1 month old

Samsung CJG5 Series C32JG50, 32" 1800R 16:9 Curved monitor, 2560 x 1440 2K, 250cd/m2, 3000:1, 144Hz, DP, 2xHDMI, Tilt, VESA mount

Pros: large, curved

Cons: The quality of this monitor seems not good. Defective after 1 month, has some backlight problem in the corner. Contacted samung support, only option is to send the monitor back for "repair". I am not exactly sure how long the "repair" would take. It looks like I might be not able to use the new monitor, I just paid hundreds of dollars for, for maybe weeks or months! And nobody will reimburse me for this loss of use. I would definitely prefer to get an exchange for something thats barely over 1-month old, but did not get that option from samsung.

Dead in 2 weeks!

Pros: Good price (<$110 including tax&shipping) Good audio chip (new motherboard purchasers should get ALC1150 or up and ditch all 8XX chip based motherboards). ATX board. Gigabit LAN. durable components USB 3.0

Cons: not Z97 but who cares! for stability reasons I dont overclock.
