Asus hardcore fans got any comments?

Is it because asus puts up figures that can only be achieved in ideal conditions

Wow ~~~ breaking news

This news will hurt ASUS customers (includes me) the most and ASUS reputation for innovative & so called 'quality' product. CUstomers pay premium price but what did they get?

is it only the EPU labeled products or all they products?

lets see what asus have to say abt this

are they want to create a new war?

They are competitor.

Asus will lost some supporter this time..
Gigabyte still my favourite

shocked to see this news..izit a way gigabyte wanna make asus lose out in the market? i may sound a bit pro-asus, but we havent heard asus' side of the story. this is just gigabyte's part.

i think asus has come out with 2nd gen EPU... perhaps to improve/update/fix the said problem ?

i know but no need to attack each other..each got its marketing strategy rite...

need to be like tat meh, Gaygabyte? they want to influence ppl to buy their boards?

then buy dfi..LOL

MSI fan 'tumpang lalu'
yup for me DFI is the best. they did 'research' 1st before release their product.
eh i thought ASUS mobo is great? bought my ASUS P5K/EPU before working great.

ASUS like that kah....but gigabyte my first impression and experiance so so bad one....that why i'm taking foxconn mars

attacking each other is another "marketing strategy"

just not practical in M'sia, that's all



aren't they all

Omg asus is cheating!!!

where is this LYN dude ----> when Asus fans need him?
need a hardcore Asus fan to give comments

i've told your mom that you bought asus products..

that is acecombat avatar

I dont fall for that..........its not like creative case .....its just marketing strategy.........
IMHO......me..i prefer Asus mobo......but any other ASUS product is overprice and overhype.........im not that fanboy of asus.......

i want to see what is ASUS response to gigabyte claim.
As for me, im sticking with Abit= look for their mainboard review, mostly positive !

waiting from her reply oso....

agreed... dun forget dfi

OMG....

PRICE is VERY HIGH and THIS is WAT we GOT???

i wonder if other mobo is affected or all...

my BIOSTAR still running well~~~
love my BIOSTAR~~~ hohhoho

biostar supporter here

Asus mobo is well known expensive, but how can they cheat their users like that? would like to see what's their response to this..

i think they currently collecting info on gaygaybyte to counter them back...

i think cause dey wanna cut cost.........
after all, their manufacture cost is very high...........

man, if dis is true, i'll nvr use asus product again..........

well i think they should counter back, cant just let gigabyte steal their customers just like that. this war's gonna get more interesting!

This time they shouldnt attack Gigabyte, instead they have to defend themself first and regain back customer's trust.

if WTB mid/low end product
better buy gigabyte

if WTB high-end one
can get asus

my experience,
asus cheap hardware is not durable

oh noes... this is bad... my asus served me well used as test bed for several hardwares before...

This news isnt widely circulated so only ppl who surf sites like toms hardware,tg forums and such will only know.
gigabyte should really find the manufacturers of those caps or to do a real time testing on Asus boards to see whether those caps used are from reputable brand.Else if they put pictures,there'll be no point as everyone can fake it.

the statement really hurt those asus customer include me because i just bought asus motherboard. i hope asus will clarify this as soon as possible.

i think i know, i've nvr hav a burst capacitor wen i OC using asus mobo...............

bt i do notice dat asus mobo is bit unstable wen i stress test it............

say TAKNAK to asus..

ASUS da SUSAh.

no wonder asus is 1 of the most hated comapany.........

haha , asus nid to clarify this ...
but really i had bad impression when first time using their mobo .. ( damn hot .. )
now 2nd time use i nid to rma overseas ...
ok that enough ~ time for DFI

asus oso got a reputation as time consuming in RMA proses.

i think so..........
flight bck 2 Taiwan woh.........can tek months.......

minimum 1 month

now all ASUS pya pekung da klua.

Is this EPU thing affect P5K model?

A great knife stab at Asus by Gigabyte. Sure it's not just a marketing ploy by them?

Hmm, so Gigabyte is not so GayGaybyte after all Dunno why some ppl hate Giga boards just because they're colorful. I've never had a Giga board fail on me before, in contrast I have an EVGA 680i board with a failed PCIE slot. Way to go Gigabyte, bring it on!

I suspect you guys didn't read all relevant articles? There's another interesting read about an editor from a well known website that went to that event and left straight with sensitive info to ASUS's HQ. Here, have a read: http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/37413/128/

Some interesting bits:


Oh, and take a look at the 6th comment. That guy point the finger at a particular person of a particular website...not sure if it's true.
