Here is my 2cents...

Foxconn needs to fess up and admit they dropped the ball by not providing an adequet list of RAM not to buy; and I do not mean a super long list, but Christ man, ASUS has a nice list on the manual that tells you which memory you should look at if you want a certain FSB or RAM speed. I think that was friggin' great on part of ASUS, and they done it with X48 and P45 [at least] motherboards.

Customers need to stop blaming the board, I know I was one of them, but a board can only do what it is allowed to do by its components/BIOS. Yes, Foxconn needs to fix a lot of bugs in the BIOS, but customers also need to provide the board with adequet hardware, I mean, it's a $360-399 board why on earth would you stick cheap @$$ $100 set of RAM in it or a CPU well below an E8400 [not saying anyone in particular, just generalizing]. It just does not make sense to buy the 3rd or 4th most expensive enthusiast motherboard and provide it with crappy components. I'm not saying go out and get a QXxxxx or some other form of super expensive components, but don't get the cheapest things around and come here blasting the board; just because the board is expensive does not mean it will support every RAM stick, CPU, GPU, etc out there.
