Just got a new Asus P8P67 Pro (Rev3) yesterday and am having nothing but problems with it. Initially the whole thing seemed DOA, but I reseated my processor and ram and got the motherboard to boot.
The bios reports my Corsair Dominator 1600(C9) ram at 1333mhz, so I have had to clock it up to the correct speed, but it seems stable. I have a Barracuda XT 2TB 6/GB SATA drive and I've tried connecting it to both the Intel and Marvel SATA connectors. In either port a fresh install of Windows 7 repeatedly grinds to a halt while it waits several minutes for a burst of disk IO. Installing the new drivers from the ASUS website took two hours and does not seem to have improved performance.
This sounds a lot like the problems with the original motherboard revision, but the box is labelled as an Revision 3 motherboard and the board has the latests bios already installed. Any advice would be appreciated - is this an RMA or is there some software fix?
