Pros: neither board would post so can't rate.

Cons: got first board and it worked for 2 hours. then would no longer POST/Boot. USB peripherals would not longer work and no graphic signal from on-board or GC. PSU was tested and fine, and CPU was fine. ASUS support told me a defective board. RMA'd and bought another Gryphon so i did not have to wait for replacement. 2nd board had the same issues. the 2nd board was obviously an RMA, the box had scratches all over it, was unsealed, the plastic bag cover was crinkled and had obvoiusly been removed and the manual and stickers were really creased up. This board has now been RMA'd as well. I am waiting for one more replacement, if it doesn't work, i am returning ALL components and going with another distributer and will never buy from NEWEGG or ASUS again. I will update this if everything works out or not.
