I have always had issues with ASUS. Their parts have never really worked well for me, and if they did they only lasted a year or two before shitting out. Everyone else seemed to swear by them and I could never even get a part that worked.

That's my experience with Asus going back over 25 years now. To me, Asus has always been substandard products sold at premium prices. If I wanted a substandard motherboard, I'd buy ECS and save a bunch of money. And to be fair to ECS, I've had some of their boards that have worked just fine, which is more than I can say about the Asus stuff.
