Pros: -Loads of features -Easy to use UEFI BIOS -Looks great -Runs well (now, see cons)
Cons: -Driver DVD was incorrectly made so it was unreadable by my machine (and all other machines I tried to use it in) Traditionally this wouldnt be much of an issue for me, however there were troubles locating certain drivers even from manufacturer's websites (such as the NFC card reader driver). ----This was made worse by the fact that the drivers that were posted on the Asus website were incorrect and I had to go to many different manufacturer's websites to get the correct drivers for multiple aspects of the motherboard -Asus utilities caused BSODs when I was attempting to install Bitdefender 2013 Internet Security. Without the Asus utilities installed the Bitdefender install went without issue
Overall Review: I suppose many of my issues would have been negated if I had originally received a working copy of the drivers DVD, but since I did not, it made the install of many of the aspects of this board somewhat of a pain. Furthermore, even without a functioning copy of the DVD, it shouldnt have been as difficult as they made it to get correct drivers from the Asus website. For certain motherboard features (IE: bluetooth and wireless) they have multiple indistinguishable drivers listed but only some work with this board. Overall I like the board and intend on continuing to use it, but the setup was far more annoying than it should have been.
