Ah yes, recyled returns, that's another Asus trick. Just last week i got back 3 boards from them. All 3 were still broken, two were beta boards (the rev # on the label indicated it as such), and the 3rd had so much dirt & dust on it that it had to have been sitting on a shelf for months, exposed to the air. Needless to say, i've sent them back for another round of replacements.I've a good friend here in the L.A. area who builds high end systems for a living. They supply several of the render farms in the Hollywood area, etc. They formerly used a lot of ASUS motherboards, and had good success with them. A couple years back, the failure rate started to creap up on them. Then they started having problems with ASUS warrantee support - long delays, getting "replacements" that were obviously recycled returns (and sometimes still not working), lots of other fun and games. They no longer handle ASUS products at all.
