Great Board

None

Not a one!

Easy to work with Asus always. I am a woman nearly 71 years young and have built my second pc with this board and a beautiful white Lian Li case, NVME 1TB and other extras. Can't be happier. Newegg came through with all necessary parts and on time. Thanks again Newegg.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Failed after 16 months; ASUS warranty is worthless

Easy setup, worked well after installation.

Failed after about 16 months. Spontaneously shut down, would no longer POST. Warranty not worth the paper (or pixels) on which it is written.

RMA'd to ASUS, who replied that there was "Customer Induced Damage" that voided the warranty. They included pictures showing some spots on the board that were not there when shipped--looks like their tech spilled his Red Bull on it. The board had been in the case since installation and never been touched by anything but canned air. No new components had been added since the original installation.

Have built numerous systems, often with ASUS components, with no such issues, but have lost confidence now. FYI ASUS support, don't bother replying to this about how sorry you are about my "experience". Can't trust you anymore.
