The only scandal I saw with this board is when a load of guys chipped in to buy you one and you just released bios files that you didn't even test yourself

I've had two of these boards and the first one was awesome, 5.7ghz with an E8500 isn't too shoddy with a budget board. But I do admit the voltage regulation is a bit crap on my second board leading to poor overclocking but as the board works it's not RMA material.
