I would like to be the first to reply to your owners thread. I am/was a proud owner of an Asus Maximus V Extreme (I know not a formula but very similar) and it died yesterday. It is in a continuous bootloop where it updates the iROG chip, the same chip that is in the formula. The update takes 6+ hours and can not be avoided nor the bios entered After four very long frustrating calls (~1hour a piece) the advanced RMA hell has started. 48 Hours for them to check there warehouse inventory to see if they can do an advanced RMA, 48 hours to process my paperwork, 48 hours to process and ship it, and another 3-5 days to receive it. Anyone want to take any bets when I get my board back? I love this board and Asus products but when they fail, it SUCKS to deal with them.
