Buyer Beware
I have had my board since July and it was running fine until one day I heard a cracking sound in my tower followed by the tower shutting down. I opened up the unit and found the bottom clip for the cpu fan had snapped off. ASUS tells me its physical damage and my warranty is now void. I had to buy a new bracket from their e-store but regardless my 5 year warranty they advertise is now moot. I will never buy ASUS again
