Sucks. After the disaster that was my mainboard I decided its my last ASUS product.

Sorry to hear, I've never had a bad experience even with a 3070.

[–] CriticalMiss 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well... a 3070 is a bit different because the chip itself is manufacutred by NVIDIA, ASUS is packaging it and builds the cooling system, ports, etc.

As is true for every product ASUS sells. They are simply an integration company and don’t produce much themselves.

oof, what was wrong with it?

They had an issue where the mainboard was destroying the new 7950X3D cpus and handled it terribly:

  • Made a fuss with the RMA process and refused to recognize the mistake
  • Brought out a new mainboard update which was supposed to fix the issue (it didnt) and updating voided your warranty
  • and some more things
