No problem lol. If you look at most thumbnails on YouTube, about 80 percent of them have that idiotic open mouth 'soy boy face'

It implies something shocking,exciting,or amazing, so lesser IQ people tend to click on them. Not me though (ok I do occasionally do it lol)

I've never had an issue with any MSI board, ever.

Again though, I guess some of it will be luck if the draw, where as I have issues and failures with most of the Asus boards I have

On the flip side i've only ever bought Asus and never had a problem. I genuinely believe that all the big brands are about the same in terms of reliability with the mass market consumer stuff unless you're being weird stuff off Ali Express or Ali Baba

Oh to be so naive :cry:

Any reason you chose to bump a 3 month old thread for no obvious reason other than to tell us how good ASUS are, especially in the face of such obvious and widespread experience to the contrary?

All the tech company's are the same. The only time they are not 100% evil is when they are trying to get market share or on camera.

No. Take Intel for example, from the point they receive an item, they will usually test and ship a replacement within 1 working day on most consumer kit, often it's turned around the same day it's received from my experience, and they don't want proof of purchase, just that it's in warranty with them, so how exactly is that the same as ASUS? Before you cite them as an exception, Gigabyte and MSI aren't as quick, but it's still usually days and weeks, ASUS will take months, and it's an adversarial interaction, you will be ignored/declined service/not afforded your legal rights because <insert made up excuse here> until you force the situation, then it's all a big misunderstanding.
 
I bought the first Nexus tablet, built by Asus.

Got great reviews initially, unfortunately for owners, it was discovered that Asus had cheaped out on the memory.

The device got slower and slower and eventually died.

Won't ever (and haven't) buy another Asus product.

I should have said motherboard company's but I though it was obvious. So, All motherboard company's are the same, they have all had problems over the last few years and how they deal with the problem's is what matters. I cannot remember any of them doing the write thing to fix a **** up. If I had to RMA a motherboard from any company, I would expect it to be a nightmare, more so if its ASUS.

Again, no. The thread title is 'ASUS', not 'ASUS motherboards', so why would it be obvious that we are only talking about one of the dozens of things brands build/sell when discussing the brand's poor handling of RMA's? Yes, every brand potentially had supply chain issues for a variety of reasons in recent years, this is nothing to do with that. Intel still just about make motherboards for retail (NUC), so do MSI and Gigabyte, they aren't steaming piles of crap to deal with, ASUS is, they are not the same. Also, you contradicted yourself, if they are all the same why moreso ASUS?

Because they are bigger and deal with more volume. We don't hear about smooth RMA's, we hear about problems. ASUS has a bad rep but I have never RMA-ed to them so its just what I have read, it would still be on my mind though. I am not saying ASUS is not a POS company, I'm simply saying you could have a bad experience with any of them.

So, you post your opinion that all brands are the same in a thread specifically about ASUS's poor handling of RMA's, decide it's obvious we must be just talking about motherboards for no obvious reason, again proclaim they are all the same despite obvious examples of why they aren't, contradict yourself by stating you would expect ASUS to be worse, then admit you've actually never had the pleasure of an RMA with ASUS. I'm going to be honest, perhaps ask yourself if this is the thread for you before continuing :D

It seems like you are just looking to argue, I'm not, welcome to the ignore list.

sorry, this thread was linked in another and never spotted how old it was.
 
I have an Asus laptop (Flow X16) and have RMA'd it twice for a simple issue (noisey fan as the filter isn't stuck properly so it rubs against the fan). Both times it went to their third party repair centre and got damaged cosmetically and they still never fixed the fan. Plus wiped the SSD each time as part of the service.

Never again.

Had 3-4 Asus motherboards, one failed and Asus’s support was basically contact the reseller in this case Amazon who swapped it without quibbling. Same with my Asus router, redirected straight back to the reseller.
