You're saying this after just assembling it? You're an idiot.

My P4C800-E worked GREAT for a few days, then started small voltage fluctuations (vCore), then those got continuously worse until I basically couldn't get much of an overclock anymore.

In fact, I wrote a review on the board, you can read it at Sysopt, with links to other people with the same problem and solutions they've found by modifying the board.

Asus sux, you just haven't had time to find out.

I'm in my second asus board right now and I've been happy with it so far. The only problem I had is that the one I currently have, only has AI overclocking options and no regular way to increase fsb but I should have researched this a bit more I just needed a good and cheap replacement fast.

How does your one experience validate his current Asus products to be garbage as well?

I'm saying that blanket praise is not valid unless the board has been tested over an extended period of time. He PM'd me and said the system has been up over a month, which gives his praise more validity than simply saying "I just built this thing and it's the best". "Just built" implies that a person hasn't had time to uncover any problems that may or may not exist.

BTW, I researched my "one experience" to uncover a common occurance :smile:

I know you "researched" but remeber who you are talking with. This is a forum the point is not a debate or something I am remotely concerned about.

You called him a idiot, struck be as excessive.

It probably was excessive, but testimonials based only on initial impressions scare me. It wasn't until he contacted me I found he actually had any burn-in time on it.

Fair enough.
