I call them Anusboards.

. . . ready for the market or not. I agree with Paul, the quality has really suffered over the past several years. Customer support? Nonexistent. Manuals are still written in Engrish as well. Glad they'll be shipping so many domestically in the Chinese market. The Chinese will get a good taste of the cr@p products they have been dumping on us!

Until Asus starts taking the support of their products seriously they will not see any more purchases from me.

ASUS is the BEST at being the WORST at customer support.

At one time Asus produced damn fine mobos before they decided to get into selling retail. Since then their rush-to-market crap IMO has been a disgrace. Dispite the product hawking by shills, many websites have confirmed countless design and operational issues with Asus' mobos and other products. No one but hardware reviewers writing glowing reviews seem to be able to get proper functioning mobos or special BIOS.

Asus' customer support is non existent in my experience. Warranty includes sending customers used mobos that someone has replaced bad components on. Simply outrageous IMO yet fanbois and shills contine to support Asus. God help em.

Looks like there is no need to buy usb 3.0 in the next 2-3 years if they don't expect to sell all of their motherboards with it in 2014.
