That's strange; nearly half of Newegg confirmed owners say this board is the worst in their experience, with BIOS problems, dropped SATA ports, CPU fan issues, no POST, lock-ups, etc. Many bought or RMAed several of them, only to experience repeated failures, and many vowed to never buy another Asus product after the nightmare customer service experience. You must of gotten one of the good ones, half of them weren't so lucky. I do extensive research before buying anything, and I made up my mind years back to avoid all TUF boards, even though I like the design concept. All TUF boards seem to have the same quality control issues, regardless of platform. The "military grade component" marketing ploy is a joke, like MSI's dodgy offerings (a brand I definitely won't buy again). Most of my boards are Asus, and they've held up well over the years. But I'd never risk buying a TUF board, unless it got much better reviews than the hundreds I've read. I'm glad you guys didn't get burned, but many others were very disappointed.
