You are not the only one thinking of buying other brands.
My next purchase will be a new Graphics Card and it isn't going to be a ASUS one.
I've been very happy with my previous ASUS products and never complained about anything. This board has been nothing but trouble for me. It started when i first build this system with a faulty LCD Poster connector on the board. It took me three days and a lot of frustrations before i found the problem. Two pins in the connector made contact with eachother.
My second problem was the Thermal Sensor Cables. Why the hell didn't they include them in the box. They only cost 3 Dollars and it wouldn't have been a problem for me to pay an extra 3 Euros to have them. In the manual you can read that you can buy them optional. They aren't available in Europe. It looks like someone from the ASUS sales forgot to send them to Europe.
I've got a nice Swiftech watercooling system to cool my CPU, NB and Graphics Card. I've bought it to have lower temperatures and less noise from the fans. The fan speeds on this board have been a frustration for me from day one. For months i've been asking ASUS to do something about it.
Why can't they just give us lower fan speed settings in the BIOS? I don't need that high speed because of my watercooling and i want less noise on my ears. Was it a mistake from me to use three 120mm fans in my case?
I think it's time that ASUS start fixing the problems. Maybe they don't care if we don't buy their products anymore at least not now. Two generations of motherboards further they will see that they made a mistake because the enthusiasts will be using an other brand and the guys that can use a little bit support won't have no choice than to buy that brand to.
