It's a shame how far Asus has fallen. They had such a strong reputation in the past for the most stable boards. I'm not sure when the transition happened, but they seem to have been coasting on their age-old reputation for some time now. Do any brands have a reputation for stability these days? It seems like all of the focus is on overclocking.
I dealt with their warranty support over a decade ago and my experience was bad enough that I vowed never to buy their stuff ever again. Seems nothing has changed.
