Only two ways Asus can respond :-

1) Denying with proof and evidents.

OR

2) Apology !!! (for overrated their product)

OR

Free Motherboard !!

OR

Low price !!

agreed lower the price for upcoming Asus P45 Maximus II Formula!!

I second that...

After TweakTown... THG said they will conduct its own independent comparison of the ASUS P5K series and the Gigabyte EP35-DS3L. That would be interesting...

Wow! This is going to be a great showdown.....

asus really going overboard this time.if gigabyte was wrong,why didnt asus state which was the (or what was the) clarification.just bashing gigabyte like that for no apparent reason.Already their products are overpriced(i still cant belive the price for the p5kse @ rm 380 at my place) which made me choose the gigabyte ds3l which was priced at rm345

i'm really looking 4ward 4 dat result..........

b sure 2 post the latest result here......

we are talking about mobo bro
if other thingy like lcd, hsf, and dvd drive got weird socket sure i wont buy la
ngehngehgneh

I see a few b****es spamming instead of posting anything meaningful.

Shoo before i report your asses.

No overclocking, good psu's, no multiple drives, that's why i say they are getting worse. yea i had a P3 board from asus too, that is the past lol

YAY, MUD! (DS3R not adhering to EMR emissions or something, blah)

YAY, DOUBLE MUD! (Asus' EPU not playing up to promises nor spec)

YAY, TRIPLE MUD! (Both companies now struggling to get shills to post for them)


Bull espionage and propaganda. My next board is basically a Foxxconn, despite their almost crazily ironic name- they are the only mobo manufacturer short of DFI that has PROPER afterlife support.

MUD???? wut is that?

MUD, the common relative of FUD.

Aka mud-slinging.

gigabyte support centre better compare to all mobo maker...easy to find driver..

I've posted more than enough for the past 3 years.

But it is unfortunate that newbies who think they have something to say have nothing to say at all.

Bugger off before i file a duplicate account report to the mods.

hmmm..
i think it will effect the reseller who keep alot of asus mobo...
bad~

Language doesn't matter for one, it hasn't mattered.

A post with no value/spam is one with no value/spam, one calls it what it is. One also calls post count whores, post count whores. I don't think it gets any simpler than that.

No no. Whether i've posted for 3 years or not doesn't mean i can be rude. I've always been rude you dipshit.

99 percent here can't even make sense of the charts Gigabyte is producing, let alone maintain anything above the standard of "OMG OMG OMG, THEY HAS CHEATED US!" or "WHAT LAH I USE THIS MOBO IS OK ONE!"

war of the world lol

their wars....our peaceful (i mean ASUS vs Gigabyte)

nah i mean bout the forumers ^^

hehe..sedangkan lidah lagikan tergigit..inikan antara kita kengkawan..
chill up guys..
no war dude..enough Asus vs Gigabyte lor..
we must be happy happy joy joy LOL

gaygaybyte is so desperate to turn to this type of counter attack.. ekekeke

asus is still in my heart~

Still no responds by Asus so far, they give up dee ar?

Empy.. dun bother lar. Already 9page + 1post (mine) of spam

its good that they blame each other. or else we never knew that they have cheated us . like someone said before 'their fight, our gain'. so change to brand would solve consumer problem in my case, MARS

ahahha! so which one is a good one now i am 100 % trusting Gigabyte Foxconn but i sure go for foxconn ! because my previous P4 with ASUS board died !

Gigabyte Foxconn?

Im waiting price drop for Asus 1st..then other company will follow up for catch up their customers..at the end, all motherboard drop $..Consumer like us will be benefits.. !! yeah !

bro do u ever go asus suport center and c? lol its much easy and informative leh.......

anyway even asus lie but wat to do.... some of the ppl like me only Buy design and brand dun care wat chart or value it hav

eye candy enough d haha......

i do agree. most people only attract to design rather than performance. sometime better hardware without great design and features mostly to be ignored by consumer. that is part of marketing strategies and it works

Asus replies!

http://www.tomsguide.com/us/motherboard-Gi...,news-1382.html

tho its more of an "I'll sue all of you!" move...

Mine did blow out after 4 1/2 years, taking the PSU and CPU with it. Not sure about the cause though, anyway it was a good board at that time.

I don't really care anyways, but I never considered Asus's P35 after reading reviews on them drawing more power than Abit's and Gigabyte's before EPU came out. Their press statement does little more than to make people more suspicious about their P5K EPU boards.

dude, 4.5 years is very long already lo.................
consider as durable la.............
no pc last 4rever la.

i think i wanna buy n ASUS board now 4 testing..........

no need headbashing's now, it is all up to your personal preference, you want to buy gigabyte, fine, buy asus, fine, don't buy anything at all also fine. it is not our problem as we were not paid to 'belasah' each other. come on lah, it is not even malaysia product, nor will it hurt our pride. so let them settle it nicely, and in the end we got better products.

well said... seconded.

Here is the news :-

Gigabyte's Official Response To Asus

http://www.tomshardware.com/news/asus-giga...board,5442.html

I think the PSU that are taking the CPU and MOBO with it .
Most of the time, if your PSU dying, it will affect other hardware but when your mobo is dying, it won't kill the PSU

just changing my blown KZG 470uf cap on my ASUS P5ND2-SLI mobo...ASUS go to hell...

how do identify solid cap made of Japan ?

i know red label solid caps with 'F' word are made by fujitsu

[attachmentid=476824]

and os-con should look like below..

[attachmentid=476829]

and chemi-con should look like below..

[attachmentid=476830]

Things seem like getting more interesting..gigabyte standing firm with their claim
but im still bored with Asus, their responds so weak..


wow u really studied on solid caps..
how to identify a lauya solid caps?

owh, now only i see this issue. looks like ASUS is deep in hot water...
we as consumers no need to fight each other for this kind of matter la. just wait for the final result.

lauya solid caps is whatever is not in that list lor...

unless some1 can furnish me with more of high quality jap caps..

chinese site:

Other high quality Japan capacitors are Rubycon, Nichicon, Sanyo (OS-CON) and Panasonic.

For more information in English, try the following sites....

CapsMod Forum

Bad Capacitor Information on Lowyat.net

so with this.. it means gigabyte was right about asus con-jobbing us all ? and using ahbeng's capacitor ?

no gay gay byte is talking crap
the phases work..

i have never seen the pwm's go more than 35C...which is fantastic..

oh yeah u guys should also see the driver xpert.. awesome benchies getting on it

dont see gaygaybyte having those... kekeke

It doesn't imply that.. Its just information regarding bad capacitor plague and issues. All brands (some time ago) have some motherboards with bad caps, GigaByte is no exception. The most famous one that got attention was the ABit class action lawsuit. MSI also got hit with lawsuits... From that day on, top manufacturers started using back Japanese capacitors.. However beware that most budget board makers are not following their footsteps.

@cstkl1, speak Engrish pleaze...

But the fact is Asus is somehow not responding to the question thrown at them. This seems very fishy.

But if it is true, we are all getting rip off. We are paying premium price for asus products.

Its like buying a Mercedes but putting in a Proton engine. Off course the car works prefectly but we are expecting top class for that money. It is same with Asus.

So till now Asus still didn't give any relevant respond and clarifying?
